‘Death & Sex’ features the original founders of the band Rodney Orpheus (vocals, synths, drum machines) and Andy Booth (guitar), with long-time additional members Chris Haskett (Henry Rollins Band, David Bowie) on guitar and Mera Roberts (Faith and the Muse, Black Tape for a Blue Girl) on cello, plus new member Brent Heinze (Probe 7) on keyboards. The album, along with many other classic songs from the entire 40-year back catalogue of THE CASSANDRA COMPLEX, will be featured on the forthcoming CX40 world tour beginning in the UK in March, and taking in shows in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Czech Republic, Austria, Latin America, and the USA throughout 2024.
Rodney Orpheus explains: “When we first wrote these songs we didn’t have the tools to fully realise them the way we wanted. Now 30 years later we can finally make them sound the way they always sounded inside our heads.” Christian Petke, CEO of COP International Records says, “When the band told me that they would start to re-record their back catalogue, I was 100% on board. It can be a dicey proposition to ‘fix’ an old record, but I knew that they had the experience and the skill to pull this off. It was a real pleasure to see these classic gems come to new life, and the fans of THE CASSANDRA COMPLEX will love this fresh take.”
