Bauhaus - Mask

NEW VINYL LP ON BEGGARS BANQUET 2013.

180 GRAM VINYL INCL. CD.

Managing to expand their sound on 1981's Mask, the members of Bauhaus stretched themselves into new areas of music and performance, resulting in an album that was arguably even better than the band’s nearly flawless debut In The Flat Field. More sides of the band were apparent from the get-go; opening number “Hair of the Dog,” one of the band’s best songs, starts with a double-tracked squalling guitar solo before turning into a stomping, surging flow, carefully paced by sudden silences and equally sudden returns, Murphy details cases of mental addictions in pithy phrases. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauhaus_%28band%29
