Christian Death : Pornographic Messiah : Original Release Date: April 20, 1999


Rozz Williams founded Christian Death in October 1979, at the age of 16, with bassist James McGearty, drummer George Belanger and guitarist Jay . The band name was a satirical play on words derived from the designer brand Christian Dior.



The first Christian Death performance in front of a live audience was at a " Castration Squad " gig in 1980, when Castration Squad invited Christian Death on stage to play a couple songs.


Rozz Williams (born Roger Alan Painter November 6, 1963 – April 1, 1998) was an American vocalist and musician of several varieties , most famous for fronting the band Christian Death , then later Shadow Project with musician Eva O , though his main project throughout his career was the " industrial Premature Ejaculation ".

He is also cited by some as a pioneer of the American Gothic scene as well as deathrock.

While living at his mother's house for six months without a band, Williams met Valor Kand and David Glass of "Pompeii 99", and found certain common artistic ground with the band. Williams was open to the idea of possibly collaborating with the band.

Prior to Rozz joining , Pompeii 99 was fronted by Valor on vocals and guitar as well as " Gitane Demone " on lead vocals and some keyboards , " David Glass " on drums and  " Shayn Taylor Shubert  " on bass.

When Rozz agreed to join Pompeii 99 , the plan was to have 3 lead vocalists , "Rozz", "Valor" and "Gitane" , however , as Pompeii 99 was preparing for their first US/European tour , an offer was made to Valor by the French label I.A.S.



to record an album in Europe prior to the tour, on the condition that the band give up the name Pompeii 99 and ressurect the name Christian Death. Rozz was reluctant to do this as use of the name evoked bad memories , Valor was weary of giving up the band he had conceived and owned.

On April 1, 1998 , Williams  ( The Black angel of Rock ) hung himself in his West Hollywood apartment. His body was discovered by Ryan Wildstar , his friend and roommate of seven years.





After many line up changes , at one point during the 1990s there were two bands with the name Christian Death. One featured Williams , and the other featured Valor Kand. Kand has been the lead guitarist since the second album "Catastrophe Ballet", and later became lead vocalist as well.

She never woke up     Lyrics



Shifting  Sands hotter then Hell
Upon her lips, tear drops fell
through the serpentine flame, I screamed her name
But she never woke up

She never woke up

Numb fingers pull the ski back
Deaf and dumb dressed in black
Through the Godless Flame, I screamed her name
But she Never woke up

She never woke up
She never woke up


Black rose in a razor cage
The lie of lies,a bygone age
When the smoke clears, only the blind will see
Only the blind will see Me

She never woke up
She never woke up

My glass helmut fears no man
with the flesh of my lips deep in the sand
Sunset rise, Sunrise fall
the Final prayer at the wailing wall

She never woke up
She never woke up

Flowers wilt in this foreign land
thy rod, thy staff have lost command
Through the serpentine flame I screamed her name
But she Never wke up.

She never woke up
She never woke up
