Sex and Drugs and Jesus Christ is the sixth album for Christian Death.

Album cover

The cover for Sex and Drugs and Jesus Christ is an image of Jesus Christ in a self-made tourniquet, using heroin, an implicit attempt to incite controversy. The cover had an impact on the band, leading to a cancellation of shows in Boston. It was also censored in NME and Melody Maker magazine, with the NME rating it a 1 out of 10, saying "may the good lord strike them down." The controversy surrounding the cover art helped make Sex and Drugs and Jesus Christ Christian Death's highest selling album from the 1980s.
