Happy Birthday ♏️ to and remembering Rozz Williams and what a creative force he was. (November 6, 1963 - April 1, 1998) R.I.P. 🖤🥀💔 I first met Rozz in my late teens at a Premature Ejaculation performance art, experimental, and industrial noise show he did with Ron Athey. I had not seen Christian Death yet at that point. Thanks to my friend Gene Evans curating and promoting these events I saw Rozz do a few other performances with PE. I soon after saw Christian Death with Rikk Agnew and later with different lineup changes including the Pompeii 99 members featuring the amazing Gitane Demone. I also saw a later incarnation of Daucus Karota but never got to see Shadow Project. Rozz Williams took his name from a gravestone in a Pomona cemetery. His obsession with artists like David Bowie, Roxy Music, Throbbing Gristle and writers like William S. Burroughs, Arthur Rimbaud, Baudelaire, surrealism, dadaism, existentialism, nihilism, death and his rejection and repudiation of his religious upbringing shaped the intensely dark lamenting artist that he became forging what was known as deathrock at that time which he may be credited as one of it’s architects. He was not comfortable with the goth category as that term was still not being used in relation to that style and genre and it was more of a movement associated with bands in the UK albeit both deathrock and goth eventually overlapped and merged and both were spawned by the gothic rock progenitors of the late 1960s and 1970s. He was such a prolific artist in the various art forms, bands and projects. Before he shuffled off this mortal coil he acted in and co-directed an experimental psychological horror short film with ambient noise and no dialogue titled Pig. He has influenced and impacted many artists with his music, lyrics, poetry, performance art, and paintings. 1/6 📷: courtesy of @edwardcolver 💀🦇🖤 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️ 🏴‍☠️ #RozzWilliams #RogerAlanPainter #ChristianDeath #PrematureEjaculation #DaucusKarota #ShadowProject #Heltir #GitaneDemone #EvaO #RonAthey #1334 #PigShortFilm #Deathrock #GothicRock (at Pomona, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHROpm6hiDD/?igshid=rff52bnvwqoj
