4 CDS in Jewel case with 24-page booklet including all lyrics.
CHRISTIAN DEATH are the definitive death rock band and a pillar of Gothic music. 'The Dark Age Renaissance Collection, Part 1, The Renaissance' combines four of their early genre-defining early recordings. This special set pulls together their classic albums, featuring both Rozz Williams and Valor Kand - ‘Catastrophe Ballet’ (1984) and ‘Ashes’ (1985), plus the highly influential ‘Atrocities’ (1986) and ‘The Scriptures’ (1987).
This limited and specially-priced package of provocative dark music is a time capsule of a band far ahead if its time, and one whose legacy of influence casts a shadow so many decades later.
For fans of SISTERS OF MERCY, COLD CAVE, SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES, SOFT MOON, BAUHAUS, DEATH VALLEY HIGH, KAELEN MIKLA.
