 Hardly "The Best Of" Christian Death May 4, 1999
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Cleopatra has once again released a mediochre collection of songs written by Rozz Williams. The original tracks are timeless and brilliant (as always), but Spahn Ranch has completely destroyed one of the most touching pieces of music ever written (Cervix Couch), and The Mission UK's minimal industrial/techno treatment of Spiritual Cramp just sounds silly. Laibach's reworking of The Angels is one of the few mixes that actually works, giving the song a middle eastern feel while keeping the integrity of the original. Bottom line: after helping, along with Valor, to drive Rozz insane and ultimately to his early grave, they are continuing to use his name (and genius) to line their pockets with below average releases.
 Cleopatra records will do anything to make a buck. October 14, 2005

You don't put remixes on a "best of" compilation. You just don't. Plus, you don't put songs that don't belong on a "best of" compilation on a "best of" compilation. Whoever threw this thing together was blatantly and insipidly trying to make money off of Rozz's tragic suicide.
Yes, I understand that the troglodyte known as Valor holds rights to "Ashes" and "Catastrophe Ballet," which is EXACTLY why this CD should never have been produced. Without songs from those two albums, you can't have a best of Christian Death. It just isn't possible.
Rozz Williams was a genius. Skip this crap and buy the actual albums - in particular, "Catastrophe Ballet," "Ashes," and "Only Theatre of Pain" - you won't be disappointed, as almost every song is good.

In my opinion this is it, there shall be no more. Rozz has done it for one last time before its all over. This collection of songs is by far the best. It is a must have for any C.D. fan. In loving memory of the kindest beast, Rozz Williams
Far from the best, but adequate November 18, 2001

My only real complaint against this record is the fact that the final track, "Lost Minds", was written by and its lead vocals were performed by Rozz's ex-wife and overzealous born-again Christian gawth, Eva O, and on this track, Rozz supplied powerful backing vocals.I'm disappointed that the album is composed mostly of re-mixes from the _Death Mix_ album and re-hashings from _the Iron Mask_ (an album Rozz noted in interview "should have never happened"), but is still a decent selection of at least one person's opinion of what Rozz's "best" exactly was. Would have been better if Rozz got to choose the tracks that made his "best of" from his Christian Death years.
Great album but lacking some songs... March 25, 2003

Much material from " Ashes ", " Catastrophe Ballet " are not here, more from " Path of Sorrows ' could have been included...
and one of my FAVORITE Rozz Williams songs " Spectre " is absent! but otherwise a good start for someone not familar with Williams. But please don't limit your exploration of this artist
to JUST Christian Death. Reccomended!Kaenan James
