Danse Macabre is the third studio album by the Omaha based indie rock band The Faint. It was released on August 21, 2001 in the U.S. and roughly a year later in the UK, where it has enjoyed similar popularity. This album is the 37th release of Saddle Creek Records. The first pressing of Danse Macabre on vinyl included a different unauthorized photo that led to them being pulled and having the covers re-printed to the cover you see provided on this page.
