5.0 out of 5 stars Goodbye To All That, 18 Mar 2008

By	N. Taylor "CPL 593H" (England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's not an easy (or for that matter profitable)practice to release an album firstly after 25 years and secondly with no tour or related promotion.And to complicate matters further they've nailed the lid down for good this time!!
For me "Go Away White" seems like a distant cousin to "Burning From The Inside". As one earlier reviewer pointed out there is a slightly fractious feel of four musical intellects at work. Easier for me to decipher having been a lifelong fan (cue groans of instant 5 star review!)
"Go Away White" is certainly not an instant fix. It takes time.Something of a lost art in this Download/Delete force-fed exsistence that's bullying our ears constantly.It's a Bauhaus album for 2008 NOT 1978.I have my favourite tracks but that's down to personal choice.All I can say is it stands up as a testimony to one of the most inventive bands of my early teens.At least they haven't slavishly and embarrasingly tried to sound like the industrial acts they've influenced whilst totally destroying their trademark brilliance, as certain other artists from this period have.To me they've come away with their credibility intact.
R.I.P.

4.0 out of 5 stars More Hit than Miss, 20 Aug 2008

By	Huge "Mindwarp666" (UK) - See all my reviews

I suppose everybody has a band that they consider to be "theirs" and Bauhaus were most definitely "mine"! After seeing Bauhaus on Top of the Pops performing She's In Parties I bought the cassette of Burning From the Inside and everything changed for me and my taste in music. Sod's Law, the band split up a couple of months after I got what was then their last studio album. After bumping in to a seasoned Bauhaus gig veteran on holiday at this time I soon realised my knowledge was woefully limited to the one album and decided to try out their back catalogue. There isn't a single poor Bauhaus album and each one sounds different from the ones before. If Go Away White is your only experience of what Bauhaus are capable of I would recommend dipping in to their other albums.

As they split in 1983 I never managed to see them in their prime and pomp but when they reformed in the late 1990's I saw them at the Brixton Academy and was moved to tears. Here they were almost 20 years after their former heyday and the performance was stunning. A few years later and another attempt at reforming saw the band playing smaller venues but still as vibrant as ever. At this time Bauhaus recorded Go Away White and if I have any criticism it is that the production quality sounds at times rather like a demo session, certainly not up to the standard of their 80's offerings.

This minor glitch aside I'd have to rate Go Away White up there with the better Bauhaus albums. The lads are all on form, Pete Murphy's vocals are as stirring as ever, David J's bass lines are immense (you can hear his influence on Jane's Addiction) Kevin Haskins takes a more straightforward approach to the rhythms and Daniel Ash lets his riffs wash over the tracks, never too much and never too little.

Bauhaus, I thank you. "Oh to be the cream!"

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE IT, 31 Jan 2008

By	Philip Woodrow "cwmboy" (South Wales, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

While many people won't like it I think it's brilliant - It sounds exactly what it is a BAUHAUS album 25 years after the last one !!
If you think you might not like it then perhaps you shouldn't bother, but I will encourage you to give it a listen and compare it to todays dross and not to the time period of 1979 to 1983. I can't believe that anyone could say 'Too much 21st Century', 'Adrenaline', or 'Endless Summer of the Damned' wouldn't fit into the old BAUHAUS world of yesteryear, but is this what BAUHAUS tried to achieve ? Does the latest U2 album sound anything like their first ?? NO
