 Encyclopedia: Christ The Album
Christ: The Album is Crass' fourth album, released in 1982.
The album also included a book, A Series Of Shock Slogans and Mindless Token Tantrums (which featured Penny Rimbaud's essay The Last of the Hippies [1], telling the story of the suspicious death of his friend Wally Hope) and a large size poster painted by Gee Vaucher.
The album took over a year to record, produce and mix, during which time the Falklands War had taken place.

 christ: the album   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The album took over a year to record, produce and mix, during which time the Falklands War had broken out and been fought.
This caused Crass to fundementally question their approach to making records, for as a group who's very reason for existing was to comment upon political issues, they felt they had been overtaken and made to appear redundant by real world events.
Subsequent releases, including the singles "How does it Feel to Be the Mother of A Thousand Dead" and "Sheep Farming in the Falklands" and album Yes Sir, I Will saw the band strip their sound 'back to basics' and issued as 'tactical responses' to political situations.

 Passion: Music for The Last Temptation of Christ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Passion: Music for The Last Temptation of Christ is a musical album produced in 1989 by Peter Gabriel.
It was originally composed as the soundtrack for the film The Last Temptation of Christ, but Gabriel spent several months after the film's release further developing the music, finally releasing it as a full-fledged album instead of a "movie soundtrack".
Amazon.com promotes the album by noting its influence on the popularization of world music by stating: "To call Passion a pivotal recording in the development of world music would be a significant understatement."

 Piss Christ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The image itself, shorn of its title and without knowledge of the materials involved, appears to be fairly conventional piece of religious art depicting Jesus on the cross.
The piece caused a scandal when it was exhibited in 1987, with detractors accusing Serrano of blasphemy and others raising this as a major issue of artistic freedom.
Piss Christ is often used as a proxy for the idea of freedom of speech, or as in this case, freedom of expression.

Unlike their last album, this disc is stripped down to its roots, despite utilizing gothic choruses and a great deal of synth, it seems a thinner sound than on past platters.
The album by no means sounds like it was performed by a three-piece, however, as the tracks are, as expected, awash in nuanced, layered sonic landscapes.
Undoubtedly, Rotting Christ has pulled out all the stops with their latest effort, and we are rewarded with an album that successfully draws the listener into a twisted sonic landscape.

 Rotting Christ-Sanctus Diavolos CD Review: Abrasive Rock.com P.O. Box 828, Olympia, WA. 98507   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The great Rotting Christ have the choir and the big sound, but they still have the riffage and blast beats, though the blast beats are sparse enough that it doesn't piss me off (because isn't that every bands ultimate goal: to not piss Zach off?).
These days, Rotting Christ is more melodic than the majority of their past effort, and the general comparison can be drawn between the new disc and the track "Dying".
However, the album is far from a carbon copy of that song reworked 10 different times.

ROTTING CHRIST was formed in 1987 with the original line-up Sakis (vocals, guitar), Jim (bass), Themis (drums) incorporating a roaring mixture of death metal and grind (a style that was at its height in the rest of the world at that time except, of course, Greece).
Early on ROTTING CHRIST produced two informal recordings ("Decline's Return" and "Leprosy Of Death") which basically consist of rehearsals and are not considered official by the band.
This is a classic fl metal album, which defined the so-called "Greek sound of fl metal" and established the band as one of the most worthy on a worldwide level.

Every once in a while, there is an artist sent down from above who takes the entire music world by surprise, and manages to shock the world and maintain a consistent level of excellence throughout their career.
Christ burst onto the scene with his unprecedented bestselling album "Testament Two", which, on top of the massive commercial attention it gave him, made him into something of a demigod, drawing billions of fans and groupies worldwide.
A thorough listening to the repetitive, formatted drivel he's cranking out on his new album suggests that either he was a complete fluke or that he should have spent a little more time off and figured out how to write a winning album.

The C is the C in Christ and the dash is Christ will be what to you what you want Him to be and the T is the T in Christ.
I feel like the album speaks to a lot of these issues; God is a friend and God is real and you can be a living witness just by the things that you do and the things you say to people.
The spiritual insight of her album is to present Jesus' message of love in the simplest form possible--tearing down the walls of self-destruction and low-esteem are the stepping stones to victory.

 Velvet Acid Christ: Twisted Thought Generator - Release Music Magazine review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Their last Dependent album, "Fun with Knives", was a success that pretty much established them as a leading band in the genre.
The album continues in a more industrial dance-kind of style with obvious goa trance elements, which suits me perfectly.
My favourite track on this album is "Lysergia" which is more of an ordinary Velvet Acid Christ song, but still with the very nice goa elements.

Well, it’s been two years since Blood Of Christ released As The Rain Gently Falls, which had such tracks as ‘Midnight Serenade’, ‘Covered In Mud’ and ‘The Swamp Song’, among many other awesome, and brutal tracks.
I just received this album in the mail after some wait, having address changes and such isn’t all that good for receiving merchandise in a timely manner.
I mean, spitting out a 74 minute Nickelback album is easy, it’s slow and repetitive to appease to the lesser, so a five minute song will consist of maybe three riffs.

The album begins with, “Gather Round Ye Children, Come,” which invites listeners to come close and hear the story of Jesus’ birth.
The album then shifts to Old Testament events with, “Passover Us,” and “So Long Moses.” “Deliver Us” is a haunting plea for freedom from sin and is one of the album’s most enchanting songs.
It is a strong, biblically-based album that can be listened to any time of the year.

First I tried the original concept album which was a little hippie-ish for me and then I listened to the movie version which I wasn't terribly impressed with.
I'm a huge fan of Jesus Christ Superstar, and I have heard many renditions, most of which have similar orchestrations with very few changes.

 TrouserPress.com :: Crass
The group was frequently embroiled in legal battles with various government agencies but, in an era largely typified by apathy, Crass stands as a remarkably successful model of dead-serious political commitment in rock.
Drawing an ugly parallel between rampant sexism and man's rape of nature and society, the album bounces vibrantly from the strident bash of the ironic rape fantasy "Bata Motel" to the LP's unsettling church-organ coda.
The severity of their sound and the belligerent politics can be predictable, even petulant, but Christ — The Album proves the band's courage and conviction.

 CGR: "Come Together" not a "Christ-centered" album   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The other albums are studio recordings, and they are intended to cover all spectrums of music genre, in which this CD does better than any other they have produced...(basically, what I am saying is that it appeals to all genres of music..Heavy, Southern rock, light, contemporary, worshipful, etc...better than any other album they have done..)
The other albums might have been considered more as "letters to God" (specifically, "Offerings") than this one is because not all of the songs are like "Sing praises to our God, Sing praises".
Its not that the album is not christ-centered it is that there are other albums by third day that might have more christ-centered songs.

Some time ago Greek band Rotting Christ was thinking about whether to keep that name, as the band had meanwhile gotten far way from their fl metal roots.
This album is not for pure fl metal fanatics or people who insist on blast beats, yet this is definitely a band with an own sound which must be able to perform this live on stage as well.
If there is an album to be described as dark metal, it is this one in my opinion; and the good thing is, it is an album which can/will grow when you listen to it more often.
