5.0 out of 5 stars Catastrophe Ballet (Ltd. mint Green vinyl) Totally worth getting if you're a fan

The product description here doesn't mention it, but it's apparently a limited edition of only 400 copies worldwide. Very good quality vinyl pressing, and an excellent mastering job as well. It plays very well on my Audio Technica turntable. A must-have for fans of Rozz Williams.

"Catastrophe Ballet" è un capolavoro dei Christian Death ed il disco ha attraversato l'Atlantico, dagli Usa all'Italia, senza subire il benché minimo danno. Consiglio a tutti gli italiani di acquistarlo presso Amazon.com!

4.0 out of 5 stars It's Christian Death, so I bought it!
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2009
Upon hearing that Valor was re-releasing some of Christian Death's more popular releases, I was happy to get the digitized versions of the older classics. The first one just got delivered to me yesterday. It was the beautiful Catastrophe Ballet. It was said to contain an unreleased song by he and Rozz. I was skeptical, because he'd said that before, and it ended up being an old song by Rozz himself that had been recorded during the time he was working with Valor. The original music was removed (It had originally sounded like a scary version of the Perry Mason theme song, and was entitled Lullabye), and replaced by a new music track by Valor, entitled Infans Vexatio(tormented children). It still sounded great, so all was forgiven. So, the first thing I did was put it in my cd drive and play this new song. Again, it sounded great, but something was wrong with it. It took three listens to figure it out. The vocals sounded as though they were originally done as a spoken word! The original music was obviously removed, and replaced by what sounded like something that would have fit well on Valor's last cd. Not only that, but the vocals were noticably edited to fit the music, and Valor sang with the vocals to make the chorus sound more convincing. I felt raped. In fact, the chorus is "He wanted you beneath the word, raped, faced down".
If you listen to it loudly enough, You can hear Rozz cursing from the grave.
Still, I'm ashamed to say it's actually a really great song! They are still a great team, and the violation is again forgivable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christian Death at their best
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2000
Catastrophe Ballet was my first Christian Death album and still remains one of my favorites. This era of Christian Death saw a move from the punk stylings of Only Theatre of Pain to a more produced pop/rock style, at times using Bowie-like musical structures. The music here is a bit more mainstream and easier to digest than the abstract experimentation that would define the band's next album, Ashes.
Those of you who are a bit timid about buying a Christian Death album might find this a good choice. The brilliant lyrics are a bit more subdued than on many of their other releases, taking a very poetic style that employs a lot of metaphor and imagery. The music here will also appeal to more mainstream audiences looking to find out more about Christian Death. Most of the songs are well-produced rock/pop songs with brilliant guitar, atmospheric keyboards, and driving drums. It's also a bit more upbeat than other Christian Death albums.
The end result is that this is one of Christian Death's best albums....beautiful, haunting, danceable, interesting, thought provoking, at times even radio-friendly, at other times experimental....thoroughly enjoyable from beginning to end.
My only complaint is with Cleopatra's reissue, which is flawed as usual. The CD won't play correctly in my portable CD player, and the album booklet is a sea of typos and misprints (the worst being that the spine of the CD is actually labeled with the incorrect CD title!) Don't let this stop you from buying the album, though.. The music is well worth it (as is the very artistic and interesting album cover that the label actually managed not to mess up)! This is definitely a must buy for anyone interested in goth rock, pop, art rock, or good music in general...

3.0 out of 5 stars Un clásico del rock gótico
Reviewed in Mexico on September 8, 2023
Verified Purchase
Reedición del clásico de 1984, se nota el esfuerzo de cuidar lo más posible el arte original, aunque no en el cuerpo de la experiencia al escucha ya que incluye una canción adicional con la que comienza el álbum, no es necesariamente negativo pero si rompe con la secuencia que uno esperaría.
La reedición no me parece extraordinaria, no se diferencian tantos detalles ni mucha limpieza con respecto al original, me esperaba un sonido, sino más limpio, si con más dimensión; en general bien pero no a la altura que merece este enorme clásico de Christian Death en su formación más fina.

Cet album ferait parti des 10 que je choisirais si je devais partir sur Mars (c'est pas pour demain a priori mais bon autant prévoir avant ...)
Rozz et Valor sont juste 2 génies. Si vous rajoutez en plus le talent de Gitane et de David, ce line-up de Christian Death était tout simplement exceptionnel et cet album en est la preuve.
