Atrocities

American pioneers of dark sounds Christian Death can rightfully claim to be the incarnation of Gothic music. When 'Atrocities' was originally released in 1986, it marked the transition after the decision of Rozz Williams to quit and Valor taking over as the leading figure in the band. The fourth Christian Death album represents a daring artistic choice as the album mainly deals with the Holocaust in general and the death camp of Auschwitz and the murderous criminal medic Dr. Josef Mengele.
