Description

Hailed as a masterpiece of it's genre, and considered by many as ground zero for deathrock, 'Only Theatre of Pain' is a seminal work of unholy power and pitch black emotion. Whilst this record may have it's roots in punk - the origins of this true original version of Christian Death took place in Southern California during the early 80's hardcore explosion - it cannot be overstated how important this record was in shaping the subsequent landscape. Emerging like an adrenaline shot into the heart of darkness, this unrestrained and mysterious recording still remains unclassifiable.
