	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Danse Macabre (book)
		Danse Macabre is a nonfiction book by Stephen King on horror fiction and United States pop culture.
		But DANSE MACABRE, his book-length essay on horror in pop culture, is like the seed-bed of everything I later came to dislike about King: a rambling conversational style, half Aesthete and half Reg'lar Folks and inauthentic as either; shameless name-dropping and boosterism; and a relentlessly middlebrow worldview powering the vehicle.
		Lazy, jokey and even bad writing fills DANSE MACABRE from stem to stern, King trying to be both hip and square on every page; a completely unsatisfying compromise that reads as awkwardly now as office-workers must've looked in their tie-and-jeans ensembles on the first Casual Fridays.

	The Faint: Danse Macabre Remixes - PopMatters Music Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		Danse Macabre Remixes is, well, a remix album, obviously, collecting new versions of every track from The Faint's third studio album Danse Macabre.
		The original Danse Macabre is actually somewhat of a gem -- The Faint mold tense, brooding lyrics to sharp, dark, and yet strangely accessible synth pop confections, recalling some of the darker works of Depeche Mode or Gary Numan, though punchier and (often) catchier.
		Danse Macabre dripped in paranoia, and it was that distinct, '80s-style paranoia felt by anyone who wasn't a Reaganite capitalist/neo-conservative during that decade.

		Macabre is a French word that makes its first known appearance in the fourteenth century, in a fragmented poem by Jean Le Fevre; Je fis de Macabre la danse.

		Death and the danse macabre are superb examples of the Church or whatever authority, adopting and formalising a strong local image for their purpose, which of course is what happened in Wallachia.

	La danse macabre
		La danse macabre, ou danse de la Mort, origine probablement de la France; on considère la danse macabre du cimetière des Innocents de Paris, peinte en 1424, comme le point de départ de cette tradition.
		Une chose est sûre: le terme «danse macabre» était connu bien avant 1424 (c'est-à-dire avant la création de celle de Paris).
		Au Moyen-Âge, la danse macabre était conçue comme un avertissement pour les puissants et une source de réconfort pour les pauvres, un appel à tous pour une vie responsable et pieuse.

	The Faint - Danse Macabre : Tapefuzz.com Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		My impression of Danse Macabre based on the first 30 seconds: these guys are just a cheap novelty act, too talentless to have their own style, so forced to co-opt a smarmy, kitschy shtick abandoned long ago--one of the tackiest ones they could have chosen, I might add.
		Danse Macabre surely shines too brightly for most people to find it anything but fun and infectious.
		The only reservation I have is that Danse Macabre seems to bear a certain shallowness that I can't seem to pin down very well.

	THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - DANSE MACABRE - Matters Of The Heart
		As their album "Eva", that has been released last year, was simply excellent in that Gothic Metal-style, DANSE MACABRE simply use that buzz they have to release a brand new mini-CD, especially cooked for you.
		On the menu, you have first a remastered version of the track "Danse Macabre" (weird choice by the way, because there were better potential singles on "Eva"), a decent new track called "And I Bleed", three nice remixes of "Danse Macabre", "Oblivion" and "Trojan Horse", and finally two video tracks.
		The first one is a video clip for "Danse Macabre", quite average, but views of the band together with a dancer, which is really Goth and could make you laugh, even if graphically speaking that's a good job.

	Amazon.com: Stephen King's Danse Macabre: Books: Stephen King (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		I don't quibble with this factual error, or that questionable judgment; my main problem with DANSE MACABRE is that its tone - a blowhard holding court with tiresome anecdotes and self-important pronouncements, and falling in love with the sound of his own voice besides - began insinuating itself into his later work with depressing regularity.
		When Danse Macabre first came out I was in the middle of a "Stepehen King Period," of sorts, having taken it upon myself to finally read the books of this author whom so many people had raved about for a few years.
		Various bits and pieces of Danse Macabre have stuck in my mind over the years, but only in the most basic sense, such as King's description of the EC horror comics of the fifties, and I recently found myself tracking down a used copy due to a renewed interest in horror.

		If this is true, then the men of the Faint must have spent a lot of time between their rocking debut album, Media, and their third full-length, Danse Macabre, practicing their Duran Duran, Cure, and Depeche Mode impressions.
		"Dance Macabre" literally means "Dance of the Dead" and is an achaiac traditon of dancing with the corpse at a funeral; sort of like a final party thing.
		Danse Macabre is best for a first listen because of songs like Glass Danse and Let the Poison Spill.

	Danse Macabre
		Fifty minutes of shocking drama and exquisite music by La Brigata, Sue Tyson and Kristine Szulik sing, act and play the music and the horror of the Black Death, that swept through Europe between 1348 and 1450.
		It was based on the popular belief, fostered by the plagues and wars of the 14th and 15th centuries, that the dead, as skeletons, rose from their graves and tempted the living, of all ages and ranks, to join them in a dance that brought them finally to death
		The dance of death, or danse macabre, or Totentanz, was first embodied in murals and a poem (1424–25) in the Church of the Holy Innocents in Paris.

	DNK Amazon Store :: Saint-Saëns: Symphony No. 3 "Organ"; Danse Macabre; Bacchanale; Le Déluge
		When the Philharmonic Society in London flattered Saint-Saens with the title of `The French Beethoven' and invited him to write a symphony, he warned them that it would be a terrifying one.
		In addition there is the famous Bacchanale from Samson and Dalila, very fine and bacchanalian I thought, and by way of lowering the general level of frenzy there is the prelude to the oratorio Le Deluge.
		Last on the disc is the Danse Macabre, and it is really this that has stopped me from giving a fifth star.

	Danse Macabre iconography
		Although the origins of the danse macabre, or Dance of Death, are still obscure, probably the most famous version was the (now lost) mural of 1424-25 with accompanying verses in the churchyard of the Franciscan convent Aux SS.
		The popularity of the danse macabre can also be observed in tomb iconography from the later fifteenth century on.
		The skeleton on the incised slab at Wijk may represent the deceased, yet it could equally be Death himself with his dart, wearing a biretta in mockery of the dead clergyman.
