Our Take

BAUHAUS, the iconic gothic rock band that spawned a million black-clad teenagers with gravity-defying hair, has finally been given the retrospective treatment with the release of "Bauhaus - 1979-1983 Volume One". This collection brings together some of the band's most beloved tracks, from the hauntingly atmospheric "Bela Lugosi's Dead" to the post-punk masterpiece "She's in Parties".

Listening to this album is like taking a trip back in time to the heyday of post-punk, when eyeliner was thicker than the fog at a cemetery and synthesizers were the instrument of choice for moody teenagers everywhere. The band's signature sound, characterised by Peter Murphy's eerie vocals and Daniel Ash's shimmering guitar work, is on full display here, reminding us why Bauhaus is considered one of the most influential bands of their era.

Tracks like "Kick in the Eye" and "Telegram Sam" showcase Bauhaus at their most raw and visceral, while "Mask" and "In the Flat Field" demonstrate their ability to create brooding, atmospheric soundscapes that are as captivating as they are unsettling.

Overall, "Bauhaus - 1979-1983 Volume One" is a must-have for any fan of gothic rock or post-punk music. So grab your blackest eyeliner, slip on your Doc Martens, and immerse yourself in the dark and twisted world of Bauhaus. You won't regret it.
