This is a great song and it's been stuck in my head consistently since I first heard it. Valor Kand is talented af in his own right.

[@_theblackexcalibur]

I used to listen to the old Christian Death. (both Rozz and Valor, even the Lover of Sin). Now it feels like this band has changed a lot... I might not like all of these new songs, but I'm truly glad to see that they are still doing well. They are beautiful.

[@wolfgard7871]

Since we are giving our ages away, I'm a half century myself. Bands don't continue for 40 years so I can keep reliving my youth. They evolve. Remember the point? We don't want to be like these dinosaurs. How often do you go to goth clubs daddy? Don't become the dinosaur. It's still pure, dark and beautiful. I hope you can come to appreciate it.

[@cosmicfertilizer]

One of the best songs I've heard in a while. Love that riff. Such a beautiful spiral of music. And the lyrics remind me of everyone who's ever died. And other things i don't want to describe. So good.

[@DarkerSideOfMusic]

[@mattsajmon9579]

Missed you in my life Christian Death! See you in Prague!

[@bbaff8622]

I dunno, its good, I will say that, I just cannot get past my own brain and what it has in memories as Christian Death. I'm 52 and grew up on Christian Death, Alien Sex fiend, Skinny Puppy, 45 grave, Specimen etc etc etc. My brother got me into a Christian Death show when I was 12 (no my parents did not know) and those memories are kind of stuck. I am thrilled you are keeping it alive with new releases, just not hitting me with that emotional connection. Yes yes this is the internet and my opinion matters not, just my thoughts.

[@BatEatsMoth]

I'm 51, been dedicated to making gothic metal since 1985 when I started playing bass for that purpose, after being inspired by the performance of Nasty by The Damned on The Young Ones Halloween episode. Everything changes. A lot of gothic rock and horror punk acts started going gothic metal around that time: Christian Death, The Cult, The Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, Glenn Danzig, etc. Some gothic rock acts went the industrial metal route, like Ministry. Some gothic rock bands went the shoegaze route. A lot of gothic metal bands rebranded their music nu metal in the 90's to get record deals; some of us refused to rebrand as nu metal and walked away from deals. Shit happens. We all got caught up in some weird morphic field effect and all of that music + grunge was the product of it. We're all proud of what we did because we answered the call of the spirit of that age, each in our own way. Some of us still are. Each of my albums reflects on the spirit of the age when I composed it: my experience of that time and place. My point is that it's all music. Flavors change. One member leaves a band, and if the band goes on, the flavor changes as the times change. You gotta appreciate each incarnation for what it is, not what it once was. I had a concert promo video these guys made in the late 80's when DeMone was still in the band; I was impressed. It was very much gothic metal. It wasn't the Christian Death I knew from Only Theater of Pain, but it's the direction I was moving in and it inspired me, so I embraced it for what it was. I don't know that you could call what they're doing now gothic metal or if they still identify their music that way, but I still listen to it for what it is in the present moment and I appreciate it. Rozz put Valor in a fucked up position and he made the most out of it. I don't try to measure it according to some criteria established by the people who came before. I try to enjoy things for what they are and not what they could have been. There's no time in this life for shoulda, coulda, woulda; there's just what is in the ever-changing present, and we have to live with that. With that thought, I leave you with a taste of my own work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pH2nimaurLaam68 Enjoy it, don't enjoy it, but don't compare it. Take it for what it is.

[@Lunatic4Bizcas]

@@BatEatsMoth : Deadsy emerged in the latter half of the 90's and I immediately identified their sound as 80's goth or a type of dark wave style, but it's true that they were grouped together with 'nu-metal' acts that sounded nothing like them and they did get the commercial airplay and attention.

[@Abhayada]

Oh that lovely guitar work that brings me RIGHT back to high school. Love this song.

[@luciosette8307]

Beautiful...💜🌺💜

[@davidaustin330]

"Oh, so sorry" that I haven't gotten the chance to fully transcribe the great interview we did before your incredible show in Brooklyn. This song very nearly came true and all came very close to looking beautiful at my funeral. I just want you to know that EVIL BECOMES RULE is my favorite record of 2022 and the best music purchase I have made this year besides the new Voivod boxed set. Thank you for remaining unbowed in the face of adversity and making music that is truly beautiful.

[@Albrecht777]

This song quite literally moves me to tears. I have cried every time that I've listened to it so far, which is more than a few occasions! Still, this is simply another sign that Christian Death move the deepest depths of the soul and the highest spheres of the spirit like no other music on earth. The video is probably the best one produced by the band to date. Thank you ever so much. I am looking forward to the new album immensely.

EDIT: This song is the same as the title... BEAUTIFUL and awesome. I'm very selective with goth rock and I don't know how you guys did it but you nailed it. It made me reflect on my mortality which I'm very grateful. I found this song last night as since then I can't help listening to it a lot. The melody to me is mesmerizing, the lyrics are just the way I like them. Perfect combination. Two thumbs up...way up guys. Hails.

Looking forward to seeing you at Cruel World Festival and in San Diego!

the best song they made since a long time , that what i call romantism ...

[@xenos_n.]

I always just listen to very early Christian death and never listen to anything after, I didn't even realize that they were still going (yes I know about all the band changes and stuff that happened decades ago), so decided to check out the newest stuff. This is surprisingly not extremely different the early stuff, I was expecting an entirely different genre by now, and it's actually a really good song (I can't say I was expecting anything good or a female singer either). I'm gonna have to check all those decades of Christian Death that I missed.

[@nowayinhell91]

@@nessie46 yes he did. They also were supposed to not steal the name. Valor was no original member. He’s an idiot who stole somebody’s creation. When ROZZ left the rest of the band we’re not supposed to perform under the name Christian Death but here we are… same name logo but with absolute crap music.

[@nessie46]

@@nowayinhell91 Actually, Rozz asked that they not use his lyrics. Which Valor initially consented to, but then decided that since he had written the music he had every right to perform those songs. You don't have to agree with him but you need to get the facts straight. Also, not cool of Rozz to quit right before they were supposed to go on tour to support Ashes. Neither one of them is morally in the clear.

This is WORLDS better than any of Rozz's cashgrab Cleopatra CD albums. Sorry, I'm sick of you Rozz acolytes dredging this dumb shit up every single time Valor does anything new. ROZZ QUIT THE BAND AND DID NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT CHRISTIAN DEATH UNTIL HE THOUGHT HE COULD MAKE MONEY FROM IT. This whole "Rozz vs. Valor" thing is beyond boring at this point. Just get over it. If you don't like it, don't listen - but Rozz quit the band and Valor didn't. Valor has every right to use this name.
