Christian Death is an American deathrock band formed 1979 by Rozz Williams. Williams was joined by guitarist Rikk Agnew of the band Adolescents, w/ James McGearty on bass guitar & George Belanger on drums. This lineup was responsible for producing the band's best-known work, their '82 debut album Only Theatre of Pain, which was highly influential in the development of the style of music known as death rock as well as the American goth scene. During this time legendary L.A. punk rock photographer Ed Colver befriended the band & shot Christian Death at a dozen of the band's concerts in the L.A. area during a six-month period in 81 & 82, as well as photographing Rozz at his family home w/ the band which was later used for the back cover of OTOP & a session of iconic images at a cemetery in Pomona.
