Product Description

CD Description

Recorded live at various venues between 1981 and 1982, PRESS THE EJECT AND GIVE ME THE TAPE is a muscular set of some of Bauhaus' best tracks. Incidentally, these tracks were recorded on the same tour that was filmed for the band's on-screen performance of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" in the 1983 film, THEHUNGER. PRESS THE EJECT features a striking version of JohnCale's "Rosegarden Funeral Of Sores", a particularly spookyrun-through of "Hollow Hills" that out-creeps the studio version on MASK, and the punk rock fuzz-out of "Dark Entries".Of course, "Belaa" appears here as well, in a luxurious nine-and-a-half-minute version. Washed in feedback and ever-so-subtly accelerating and decelerating, this song is the true centre of "Goth" mythology.
The disc is filled out with live tracks from the band's singles-the best of which is a blistering performance of "Double Dare"-and an unreleased liveversion of MASK's "Of Lillies And Remains". The last track,a cover of the Velvet Underground classic "Waiting For The Man", features sometime V.U. member Nico on vocals. Some live albums are not worth the energy required to listen to them. PRESS THE EJECT is not one of those albums.

5.0 out of 5 stars Put The CD In And Press Play!, 3 April 2001
By A Customer
Press the Eject and give me the tape, well apart from the outdated title, now that we are in the CD era this CD is the best Bauhaus album released. It includes all their best tracks from the first two albums while Bauhaus were still mixing their unique gothic music with a harder punk edge. Kicking off with probably one of their most famous tracks In The Flat Field; Peter Murphy's vocals live are even more passionate than in the studio which simply enhances their raw energy unleashing track after track of the best Gothic band of the eighties. Of course Bauhaus live just wouldn't be complete without including Bela Lugosi's Dead, probably one of the most famous of their songs, even live they kept the atmosphere the track was intended for. As with the more melodic Hollow Hills Bauhaus show that they can diverse their style without sounding disjointed as one track keeps you in anticipation for the next. The highlight of the album for me is tracks 10 and 11, Stigmata Martyr is probably my favourite track from the band, which just builds you up to Dark Entries a heavy drum loaded song with almost vicious vocals. The extra tracks on this CD are not just time wasters either with the Classic submarine intro from Double Dare and the Lou Reed cover with Nico as special guest fill this CD with 72 minutes of hard Gothic - Punk from the best in the business.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well worthwhile, 4 Nov 2007
Great performances. The sound quality on some of the tracks is not perfect but that doesn't effect my listening pleasure. My favorite is the 'The spy in the cab' - 'Automated Autonomy' spot on.

Play loud, play in the dark.

1.0 out of 5 stars it was all a long time ago........., 11 Jul 2004
I remember when this first came out as a freebie to boost interest in the Skys Gone Out album. One of the music papers, I think the Melody Maker commented that in truth Bauhaus were poor musicians, and they only had one decent song, Dark Entries. At the time I thought this was rubbish, Bauhaus were great musicians and wrote lots of great songs. However, I gave the vinyl away many years ago, and hearing it again in CD, the MM was right. Dark Entries is a top tune though....
