So is anyone else on Peter Murphy's mailing list, but didn't get an email about his upcoming tour? I'm glad I happened to check his website a couple of weeks back and read about it in the news section.
Here's the tour site (but the links don't seem to be working yet):
http://www.petermurphy.info/tours/retrospective/
Does anyone have any info. on what he'll be playing? I'm assuming the setlists will contain a bit of everything since it's a retrospective tour. I hope that doesn't mean it will be his last.

For those of you who have refrained from downloading the leaked album, you can get a preview (two whole songs!) at the official Bauhaus Myspace page
It was actually posted up a couple of days ago, but due to my excitement, I didn't think about posting it here. Anyway, I'm pretty sure all you Bauhaus-fanatics have already checked it out, but for those that haven't...
They really do sound much better than I was expecting :]

Just thought I'd drop a line and say hi. I'm a newbie to this group, but a Bauhaus fan of old, although I didn't seem them live until the late '90s, and again in 2005. I can't wait for the new album, but I'm being good and haven't downloaded it...yet. Sad to hear they've split again, since I'd love to see them tour the new material. Damn.

4:45 pm - More "Go Away White" News...
|
dj_evol_eno
|
Though I pronounced today Ian Curtis/Warsaw/Joy Division day on my personal journal (since CONTROL is opening locally tonight), I thought i'd go ahead and post some news I just got...
BAUHAUS - ‘GO AWAY WHITE’
“I come with this darkness and go away white.”
Bauhaus slid fully formed from punk rock's womb in late 1978. Over the
course of four hot years, they unintentionally birthed a genre (Goth),
moved on, moved forward, and surged mercurial through the post-punk music
scene, tearing into tense, stark, dub bass-driven new-wave, T-Rex-esque
glam, and swirling, clattering, orchestral atmospherics, whilst churning
it all into a grand velvet, Rimbaudian hallucination. It was a wild,
inspired, enthralling sound. And it still is. Now there is a new record.
‘Go Away White’ was recorded in 18 days at Zircon Skye in Ojai, with
singer Peter Murphy, bassist David J, guitarist Daniel Ash, and drummer
Kevin Haskins playing together as a band in one room, taking first takes
as final cuts. So, a new record but apparently a final one, the band
having decided to release it as a posthumous swan song.
‘Go Away White’ is everything you would hope Bauhaus would deliver as
their final statement. Fronted by a cover photo of Bethesda, the angel of
the healing waters in New York's Central Park, the music inside is pure
cathartic renovation, a psychedelic glimpse into an enchanted moment.
Aided in part by guitarist Daniel Ash's inspired use of Jimi Hendrix's own
personal Vox wah wah pedal, gifted to him by Peter Murphy at the start of
the sessions, it is pop as much as it is experimental.
The 10 songs on ‘Go Away White’ channel the kind of magic timelessness you
could imagine on a mighty bill with Joy Division, Bowie, Devo, the
Creatures, Antony, My Bloody Valentine, and Kraftwerk--with Oscar Wilde
playing master of ceremonies.
As the NME once said, "Bauhaus are to Goth, what Radiohead are to Prog."
It's all building blocks. Give ‘Go Away White’ an honest minute and you'll
realize that The Klaxons, The Killers, The Rapture and Foals all got their
beats from Bauhaus, and how--without them--there would be no Nine Inch
Nails or Jane's Addiction or Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, AFI, TV on the
Radio, Interpol, Hot Hot Heat or LCD Sound System.
The accomplishments of the band are too many to list here but to touch
lightly, there are the four studio albums: ‘In the Flat Field’ (1980),
‘Mask’ (1981), ‘The Sky's Gone Out’ (1982), and ‘Burning from the Inside’
(1983). There is the riveting appearance with David Bowie in the
movie,‘The Hunger’. There are the classic Peel sessions and the
hits--seismic rumbles such as ‘She's in Parties’, ‘Kick in the
Eye’,’Stigmata Martyr’, and the great, epic, pillar of ether and brooding,
psychedelia, that is 'Bela Lugosi's Dead.'
So, an end but an end with one final sonorous statement. Behold ‘Go Away
White’.
Watch as night comes, as day breaks and the light . . . pours . . . in.
--Adam Gnade
Released on March 4th, 2008 worldwide. Distributed by Red Eye in North
America, Cooking Vinyl for the rest of the world. It will also be
available as digital download on iTunes (only in North America).

BILLBOARD: BAUHAUS BOWING OUT WITH NEW ALBUM
December 04, 2007, 1:55 PM ET
Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.
The good news for Bauhaus fans: the group is eyeing a March 4 release for "Going Away White," its first studio album since 1983. The bad news: there will be no further activity from the legendary goth band, who reunited in 2005 for the Coachella festival and later toured the world.
"We were getting along really well, but there was an incident that occurred," drummer Kevin Haskins tells Billboard.com, declining to elaborate further. "Some of us just felt that we didn't want to carry on as a working unit."
As such, "Going Away White," which the band is releasing digitally via iTunes and on CD via its own Bauhaus Music imprint through Redeye Distribution, will close the book on Bauhaus. Haskins, guitarist Daniel Ash, bassist David J and vocalist Peter Murphy recorded the album last year after entering the studio "with nothing prepared," according to Haskins.
"I was concerned because history most of the time has proved that when groups reform and record, it doesn't work out," he says. "We all decided, let's just give it a go and see if it's working.
What emerged were songs Haskins says stay true to the original Bauhaus spirit, including "Adrenaline" and "Endless Summer of the Damned," which were performed during a summer 2006 tour with Nine Inch Nails.
"Now, there's a little bit of an empty feeling because we can't tour with it," Haskins admits. "All the same, it's something we're very proud of, and we feel a lot of people will be interested to hear it."
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This is a huge deal for me (well, for all of us!), as I've been wondering what material would generate from the reunion tour & new live tracks displayed on the NIN tour. Bauhaus are one of my favorite bands, and I'm excited for this album (hoping it's excellent) but saddened to learn they will not tour for it. I bet you anything Peter & Danny had a fight.

7:57 pm - David J of Bauhaus in the new Dresden Dolls music video!
|

Though The Dresden Dolls get lumped in as "goth" every now and then, they've confused the world by making a bright and sunny music video with none other than Bauhaus' David J!
Pretty cool shit, if you ask me...

9:12 pm - Resemblance?
|

Does anyone else think that Huge Laurie (from House M.D.) looks vaguely similar to Peter?
I think it's the eyes, and maybe, the bone structure. Laurie is like the slightly more conventionally proprotioned version of Peter. Anyway, they are both terribly attractive. :-x

ATTENTION BAUHAUS FANS!
ATTENTION PEOPLE WHO HAS ONDEMAND COMCAST! If you go to the music section, select "MTV2", then "rock" and go down the list. You'll see Subterranean Goth. In Subterranean Goth there is Peter Murphy from (Bauhaus) of course and Gerard Way from (My Chemical Romance). I know. Peter is sitting next to Gerard. They seemed to get along. There is one Bauhaus music video in there and other gothic videos. Check it out. And Peter Murphy doesn't deny that he's not goth anymore. lol.
This is Peter at his most recent! He is old and balding! Yes, some of you might say "I hate My Chemical Romance."
This is what I'm talking about. Click that to see a short clip of them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikTShVNmc8o
It's not the whole thing though. You have to watch whole thing on ondemand comcast.

cross posted...
If you saw a hearse with the license plate "BAUHRSE" would you get what it says? I thought it was a touch too obscure, but a friend told me she got it instantly and she is not really into them much.

Four richly atmospheric songs that will take you places you've never been before.
Check out two of them right now on Bell Hollow’s MySpace (see below link): the cinematic title track "Sons of the Burgess Shale" and the pulsating nocturne "Bodies, Rest and Motion."
Available August 2006 on Five03 Records.
"Post-punk revival bands can leave me frustrated. They're a cliff notes version of a life-altering text. Bell Hollow is the next chapter in that text." - Basim Usmani
"Bell Hollow invokes all of the moody, ethereal elements of The Cure, Cocteau Twins and Radiohead." – The Big Takeover
"Sounds almost effortlessly like it's 1981 and The Comsat Angels are in town; the songs are brooding and burning with restrained passion." - Leonard's Lair
