Biography
While his older brothers preferred to listen to bands such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, with his sister adhering to Janis Joplin and other similar artists, Rozz, as a child, preferred musicians along the lines of David Bowie, Roxy Music, T-Rex, Alice Cooper, Iggy Pop, and The New York Dolls. When he reached adolescence, in the late 1970s, he became attracted to the American punk rock scene and shaved his head.
By the age of sixteen, Roger began performing in bands. He took the name of Rozz Williams from a gravestone he found in his favorite cemetery. His first bands were called The Crawlers, No, then The Upsetters. Rozz sang and played the guitar, though the band never performed on stage. Rozz then went on to form The Asexuals. In addition to being the lead vocalist, he played the organ and guitar, with Jill Emery also contributing vocals as well as playing bass, and Steve Darrow on drums. Their performances were limited to a few parties.

"i don't care if any one is influenced or inspired by my music..." - rozz williams.. opinions are like assholes, they stink and everyone has one. Your definition of special really isn't important is it

" 'Nothing really special' .. of course, Rozz didn't play rapcore, nu metal and all that big variety of genres she are into..." Furthermore, he's not even "cateater". I wonder if she only feels the need to diss RW because she's upset by something she's clearly misinformed about, some insignificant thing that happened ages and ages ago (Ron Athey biting into and vomiting up a rotting dead cat on stage, I mean).

Come on, the same people listening to Christian Death were listening to The Cure. Nothing really wrong with the latter band until they started putting out albums for the sake of it.

"Nothing really special" .. of course, Rozz didn't play rapcore, nu metal and all that big variety of genres she are into, probably everything out of her poor limited box is nothing special.... just ignore this brainless attention whor*

bqad2 and you know what's special and not? Go listen to the Cure and stay away from the good stuff. Your opinion isn't needed.
