Williams was also involved with Daucus Karota, Heltir, EXP, Bloodflag, and his own version of Christian Death (Christian Death featuring Rozz Williams), along with recording a handful of solo albums. Williams was also an avid painter, poet, and collage artist, with many of his works now owned by private collectors and on display at art exhibits. Some of his poetry has been published since his death, and his original suicide note, titled “December 30, 1334,” is on display with his urn at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
