Bauhaus is an English Post-Punk band that was formed in Northampton in 1978. Originally named "Bauhaus 1919" after the school of the same name, they dropped the "1919" from their name within a year of being together.
After disbanding in 1983, Bauhaus reunited for a tour in 1998. Following the breakup, Daniel Ash, David Haskins, and Kevin Haskins pursued other musical projects while Peter Murphy collaborated with [a59922] for a year before embarking on a solo career.
The band reformed once again and embarked on another tour in 2005 but ultimately broke up for good in 2008 after releasing their final studio album "Go Away White".

New Wave / Post Punk

Bauhaus' Crackle - Best of Bauhaus. Available here on Ruby Colored Double LP, Standard LP and CD.

The track listing draws from bauhaus' entire career-from the defining first single, 'bela lugosi's dead', all the way through 'she's in parties' and the title track of the band's final album, 'burning from the inside'. All tracks have been remastered. This is especially evident on the band's earliest work. 'dark entries' and 'double dare' are afforded a cleaner sound, adding to their power. The lone cover included is a version of 'ziggy stardust', a david bowie classic that clearly influenced the band. Though they will always be labeled as founding forefathers of the 'goth' rock movement, bauhaus were never constrained by the label. 'terror couple kill colonel' features a gentle, swaying groove. 'silent hedges' is built on a foundation of acoustic guitar and a chunky, distorted bass line. 'spirit' features dueling guitars and a harpsichord. The collection concludes with one of the band's most emotive tracks, 'crowds', a pretty piano-based song wherein tortured vocalist peter murphy wonders 'what do you want of me?'.
