Bauhaus: Burning from the Inside (1983)

Burning from the Inside on a picture disc. Cool. I should have photographed the back too.

Bauhaus: Burning from the Inside (1983)

I have a US pressing of the fourth release from the godfathers of goth, which Wikipedia describes as an "overbearingly gloomy style of post-punk rock driven by jagged guitar chords and cold, distant synthesizers." I am not convinced that this is an adequate or accurate description of goth or Bauhaus. It sounds to my like this description was written by someone who hates the band and the genre. Besides, there are plenty of Bauhaus songs that don't come anywhere close to satisfying that definition. For example, there's She's in Parties? That's a brilliant track. I'm a big Bauhaus fan, so I might be biased here.
