- This is the video I've been working on for quite a while and I'm very happy that it is done! I've always wanted to do a video like this which is more like a video version of the GothCast Podcast. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you'd like to see any other bands covered! 👻

“Its like listening to David bowie at night “ YESS YOU CAN FEEL LIKE THIS WHEN U LISTEN TO all we ever wanted was everything
That song puts me in mind of Bowies Diamond Dogs album. Proto goth imo
I’m glad it’s not just me who feel’s reminded of David Bowie when listening to Bauhaus!😄
If I didn’t know any better, Peter Murphy must’ve been a Massive Fan of David Bowie considering the fact that he’s just him!
The whole frenzied, chaotic piano of Aladdin Sane set the mood. The first track I put on any Bahiuas mix is Nerves. I love that avant guard feel.
They did a lot of bowie covers
Members of the group attended the same school that I attended ,I remember them initially playing in front of the school prior to going on to greater things ,they have remained consistent in regards to their approach to performing and thier overall styalisation ,it was initially obvious to everyone watching that they were going to be big .
Bauhaus is one my favorite bands. I really enjoy Peter Murphy's vocal styles. Thank you for the deep background on the band.
I think maybe "the Birthday Party" might be a good soon to be entre to this series. Leading into Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
oh hell yes. saw them in brixton in late 1982. there are clips on here somewhere. their story needs telling.
Yesssss!
@@MissNurseNoir I saw the Birthday Party supporting Bauhaus in Liverpool.
I got the Bauhaus collection with In the Flat Field, Mask, The Sky's Gone Out, Burning from the Inside and some singles recently. Safe to say I'm quite the fan. Really appreciate you compiling info on 'em in this easy-to-consume format.
Took me a while to like Bauhaus after first hearing them, but was hooked in the end. My absolute favourite is "All we ever wanted was everything"
14:27, the "weird" Haskins' drum kit is one that would have been found in 1920s bands. Since the video is a spooky, Vaudeville-like scenario, I assume that is why they set up an antique drum kit. There was no hi-hat, there were suspended sock cymbals, there is a Chinese drum, and usually cowbells and wood blocks instead of a set of tom toms. If you listen to old jazz records from the 1920s, you hear kits like these. It was also needed because in original, pre-electrical process of recording, there was an acoustic horn that collected the sounds in from the studio and if the drums were too loud they would cause the stylus etching the wax at the small end of the horn in the recording room to skip.
🤣9:00 Been listening to Bauhaus since I was 13 & have always felt that about David J.
He looks like a buncha Goths kidnapped Bank Manager & forced him to play Bass for them.
“Hmm, he still doesn’t look quite right”🤔
“I know! Wear these...”🕶
I completely agree
Really looking forward to more of these series! Sisters of Mercy or The Chameleons would be great to see in the future☺️
I freakin' love Bauhaus. Always did. They were just so loaded with inspiration - just exploding with it, from the start. Daniel Ash is no doubt an devoted servant of the Muse. The guy just never seemed to stop making stuff, and just pumping that stuff out,.I hear what you say about some of his tones early on, but I'm not sure he was as interested in perfecting the sound coming out of his amp as he might've been in making whatever was there already evoke the correct balance of psychedelia and spookiness. And what a good groove the brought us on the dance floor. It's really cool to see people still talking about it on modern platforms. This is stuff that made me the guy I am. I really appreciate this. Thank you so much for enthroning this tiny, yet significant aspect of my own muse. More power to you. Light, life, love and liberty to you and yours.
I know for 100% fact I'm going to like this new series you're doing. One of my favorite all-time concerts was their reunion tour in '98 at the Hammerstein in New York When I tell you the concert was EPIC it doesn't do it justice.
Saw that tour in Denver for my 25 bday. Type O Negative opened, kicked ass

Thx, great video, good to see you again. I remember seeing Night of the Demons in the theater, and totally geeked over the prominent use of Stigmata Martyr, just awesome!
Hey, do you know of a band called "the 3D Invisibles" from the early 80s Detroit, Michigan? It's horror punk in a garage rock, monster mash style, more fun than the Misfits. It's perfect for a Halloween compilation tape with 45 Grave, the Cramps, and Screaming J Hawkins (Alligator Wine). Listen to "Creepy Fella" and "Walking through the Graveyard" to start with, but it's all in this vein! 💉🧟♂️⚰🕯
Really great job man, I need to check your band out🤙
I was into Bauhaus, and I still listen to them, they've aged well. I regard Cruelty and the Beast by Cradle of Filth as the best continuation of the Bauhaus tradition, Some may not agree there's a connection but the guitarist for that album, Stuart Anstis, was a Bauhaus fan.
@@alienmindwarp3455 Stigmata Martyr - one of their best
OH MY GOD! And im going to see them at Cruel World this Saturday!!
Lucky
Awesome work. Love the choice of a Siouxsie t-shirt to talk about Bauhaus. 🤣
Please continue this series. I am totally enjoying learning about the bands I am so fond of. It's a great resource for baby bats and those already in the scene. 🦇💀🕸️ Great start so far.
As someone who listened to goth and was there in Britain when it came out in the 80s, I have to say I loved Bauhaus. Still listen to a lot of this music to this day. Kick In The Eye is probably my favourite
As for a band to cover, I'd like to see Christian Death 🤘
Yes!!!!!!! I totally agree with you. Christian Death should definitely be in this series. Right on!!!!🖤🖤🤘🤘
My dad and I just discovered your channel and we are in love with it! Thank you :D
I first heard Bauhaus in 1983 when a friend put headphones on me and played in the flat field. It scared the crap out of me, but I loved it. They are still my favorite of the darkwave bands.
Love your natural presentation style and really interesting content. I saw Bauahus on their final tour in Birmingham Uk (Burning From the Inside) and still stands as one of my most memorable gigs of the 80's along with Japan and the Associates. Keep up the good work.
Wow. I have just been listening to "Bela Lugosi's dead" full volume. I play it every year when there's thunder and lightning. I love Bauhaus. I am 59 and still love my punk and goth. I had long spikey hair ,that took a lot of hair spray and straighteners. I went to Liverpool's PLANET X until it closed, still got the pics. Massive fan at the time of Alien Sex Fiend and still have all the records. Stigmata martyr being my second fav song of Bauhaus. Well done .
I toured with Bauhaus. I also toured with Peter Murphy with David J doing Flat Field in its entirety.
Brilliant. Clearly a lot of time & effort put in. I like that you give your own opinions and don't just stick to a bland band history. I didn't know they had put out a new track recently. Thanks.
Skeletal Family is a great band over looked.
Yes!!
Yess good call
Such a great video!! Your candor is fantastic, the visuals really help illustrate everything you discuss, and keep you engaged. I love Bauhaus so maybe I'm biased but this video is so well put together and genuine. Excellent job, and I'm really happy to know there's videos like this out there to help guide the baby bats and hopefully lead a few normies down the darker path ;) MORE PLZZZ THNX
Just discovered your channel, and summarily subbed. Looking forward to binge watching your offerings. Informative and sincere. I'm in!
Great video of the amazing Bauhaus. I was lucky enough to see them 4 times in the early 80s, and they were an incredible live experience. I was also at the Sisters of mercys first gig. I soon moved from the dying punk scene and dived into the darkside. Seeing bands such as Bauhaus, Killing Joke, Sisters, Birthday Party, the Cramps etc, gave me faith that music hadn't turned to shit. Have you checked out the very gothic tale of Lady Paranorma on UA-cam? Well worth the watch, and narrated by Peter Murphy himself. Also, can I recommend a band from the USA. Very underrated goth band called Gargoyle Sox from Detroit.
I've yet to watch this but I'm just incredibly happy to see a long video essay about a goth band from a goth! Please make more of these!
As for suggestions, another cornerstone band such as The Cure could work. Eventually, I'd love to see these with modern bands too (maybe some interviews 👁).
Just found this video and love this so much! Bauhaus is a favorite band of mine.
Also your makeup and look is so COOL!
I love listening to your talks. Specially this one. And listening to your opinions are great, history and sharing. A+
love the effort you put in to these videos and giving information. keep it up!
I hope you end up doing more of these. Really informative and entertaining and I enjoyed it a lot.
I'm 62, not a goth , but they were iconic in my era. We weren't alll cromagnums in that era. They're art performances and raw talent created your passion for sure.
Just came across this channel and the content seems super cool. Would love to see more Goth 101! I've found it difficult to find goth band history videos made by goth people themselves.
Hi, I enjoyed the video. I'm both a Goth and Metalhead. I've been listening to Goth Rock and Metal Music for 14 years. I love Bauhaus. They are my favorite Goth band besides the Goth Rock/Darkwave band, She Past Away. I'm a black goth guy, I know ethnicity shouldn't matter, but I know that it's sort of rare, but not really. I don't know where I'm going with this. I really appreciate Peter Murphy, and Bela Lugosi is a classic, but I love Mask, favorite album and of course, in the flat field was perfect. Great video, awesome content.
Liked and subscribed. And I'm looking forward to the next G101.
This was fantastic. Thank you for taking the time to be a historian for a thing you're passionate about. 🖤
Thanks so much for watching! 💀🕷️
I come back to watch this every so often, hoping you do more of these soon🦇
Great video and series, Dr Sanders! Twelve thumbs up!
BAUHAUS is a great band to begin the series. Gotham is a great live album, so I am happy that you talked about it. I'd love for you to cover an array of goth bands, especially modern ones so that more people can learn about them. Obviously, this depends on your time and resources, but I'll leave you with some recommendations below, nonetheless. Lastly, your blue hair looks great. 💙🦇💙
Garden of Delight/Merciful Nuns, Lebanon Hanover, Twin Tribes, She Past Away, Xmal Deutschland, The Merry Thoughts, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, Spectres, Rosegarden Funeral Party, Hapax, Christian Death, Virgin in Veil, Cinema Strange, Diva Destruction, Switchblade Symphony, Faith and the Muse, Autumn, London After Midnight, Suspiria, Paralysed Age, Ikon, Nosferatu, Corpus Delicti, The Wake, Horror Vacuui, Siouxsie and the Banshees, 45 Grave, Xmal Deutschland, Actors, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Crüxshadows, Traitrs, Die Laughing, Rosetta Stone, Witching Hour, The Mission, All About Eve, and possibly some type of highlight for the really new bands like Male Tears, Mystic Priestess, Manticore Kiss, Nox Novacula, and October Burns Black. Hopefully, this is enough suggestions. 😉 Cheers! Stay spooky! 🕷🦇🕸🦂🐈⬛
I know Christian Death, Siouxsie, and I love 45 Grave! The others are movies and never heard of lol
@@alienmindwarp3455 I should have also mentioned Specimen, Sex Gang Children, and Fields of the Nephilim. 🤔
Yis! I love Gotham!
As an Elder Goth who never had a chance to see Bauhaus in the 80's, I was excited when they started touring in 2019. Then there was COVID... So when they cancelled the tour due to Peter Murphy's health issues, I figured I would never have the chance to see them live. However I did see Love and Rockets in 2023, so I'm pretty happy about that.
well done!! thank you for creating this
I never saw Bauhaus. I saw Love and Rockets open for Siouxsie in Los Angeles, in 1986. 2 nights in a row
Excellent video sir! Really good work and I can tell that really must have been a pretty monumental editing task. Just came across your channel seeing this video and subscribed - look forward to future group over-views if you come round to them (will work my way back through the older ones as well).
Have the old clam-shell case VHS of Shadow of Light. Also, was super lucky and I got to see them on their 1998 reunion tour when they played at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA. It was the perfect time for me and was actually the first concert I ended up going to myself (vs with the parents etc) and it was surprisingly really really good. Only surprisingly because no one really knew what to expect going into it because the tour etc kind of came out of nowhere. But, the band members were still young enough at the time that they honestly didn't look that different from concert footage of their original run - and most importantly they sounded just as good. Peter Murphy's voice was nearly identical to the original stuff and he could hit all the notes. **in saying all that, its natural for bands to have to change over time as the members age and there's nothing wrong with that - lots of bands successfully transition with age without losing touch with what made folks dig them originally. In this case though, it was just a really cool surprise/treat to show up to see them and it feel like it almost could have been an extension of the first time round.
They did a tour with NIN (I can't remember the year) that I really wanted to catch - wherein Peter Murphy and Trent Reznor did some almost duet type versions of a handful of songs by the band Joy Division, and I would almost have killed to have gotten to see that (on the up side there are also some rough studio versions on YT that the two recorded concurrent with the tour I believe).
Lastly, I have to say that I felt/feel the same way about that later album they did - and I really really wanted to like it, but it just wasn't very inspiring or even that interesting. Which is a shame because they proved during the periods of solo Murphy and Love and Rockets that they could absolutely still write good songs - and IMO some of the songs on the first L&R album are almost as good and really not that far removed from what appeared on Burning on the Inside. "Haunted when the minutes drag" is really a killer song and you could almost imagine Murphy singing it.
At any rate, I doubt at this point I'll ever be able to see them again live, though I suppose it depends on how long and to where their current or ::crossing fingers:: future tour(s) take them.
I enjoyed this Bauhaus review, well done with the edit, info and imaging ❤
Thank you for this university, rich, lesson with Bauhaus! You are a savvy, na-t cave creature! Bravo 🎉
I've been a fan of Bauhaus since the start this was a really interesting video thank you for producing it.
Great job covering one of my very favouritest bands. Totally unique sound, lightning in a bottle, no wonder that they had internal problems. Saw them in the Ambassador in Dublin the second time they reformed and they were incredible. Electrifying show, they had lost none of their energy, one of the best I've been to.
Love your hair by the way.
P.S. Would be delighted if you would cover the Virgin Prunes. 🖤
Yay! Knowledgeable and interesting info about the 'goth' scene and the fantastic music it spawned! Thankyou.... please keep it up (I'd particularly appreciate a post about The Cure and Siouxsie and the banshees. Take care, Faerie N.
Dr. Sanders!!!
Thanks a lot for your Bauhaus' retrospective! I learn a lot!! SAS 🖤🖤🦇🦇
I was lucky enough to work for Beggars Banquet in the early 80s and saw them many many times at the Rock Garden in Covent Garden they used to sell their tapes at the door I never paid to see them was always on the guest list . They were more punk than Goth tbh
Impressive coverage of a great band. Your take on each album was spot on although I tend to enjoy Sky over Mask (might be the cover). Really like the commentary of the music vids 😂 and do Nephillim next!
Just saw Love and Rockets last month and really enjoyed your video. 1st time,but not last time,viewer. Subbing now. Cheers
A very illustrative video! Thnks
you sir are a true gentleman & scholar. Thanks for the unbiased review on the discography. You earned yourself a new subscriber. Respect.
Love your videos!
This was really good, great video. You should do one on the cramps
There wasn't much here I didn't already know, but that is because I am already a huge fan. Nevertheless, I enjoyed watching/ listening to this and I think you did a great job covering their material. I know this video is old, but I just now stumbled upon it and subscribed to your channel. Hope to see more of the same quality discussions at a later time.
Once my favourite band now one of my faves...
I didn't expect to like it as much as i did, the gothguy was good...congrats!
This was great - I'd watch a lot more videos like it!
All of the band members attended the same scool that I went to ,when innitially forming they played in front of the rest of the school and went on to greater things .They have consistently remained true in regards to thier aproach to performing and overall styalisation .It was obvious to everyone watching them at school that they were going to be popular .
Along with the live albums I think you should have mentioned “swing the heartache” the BBC sessions compilation. It’s not quite “live” but some of the signs were recorded in one take and there’s very minimal overdubs, so it’s a very raw sounding release but with better acoustics than a live record. Highly recommended
Nice video man! Subbed!
I would love to learn about more goth bands. Thanks!
This video is really good!
Yes ! 120
Minutes gave me intro to what still is my top vocal inspriration
the first release of The sky's gone out came with press the eject and give me the tape. It was recorded over 3 venues, one of them being The Royal Court in Liverpool. Yes, i was there.
Man this band is so creative and talented
A friend introduced me to Bauhaus in the early 90s, years after they split up. I was so overjoyed to get to see them live during the Resurrection tour. That they have toured sporadically for decades after they split up, and even put out Go Away White, is beautifully on-point with the undead theme.
78-83
I love your channel ❤
I was busting out Dark Entries last night a few times on the guitar here: wow, always makes my ears ring but it's so much fun to play along with the record. It's actually
shocking how easy it actually is to play that song. Just crank up the gain and have fun.
Great review been a fan of Bauhaus , love and rocket since early mid 80’s
First Bauhaus song I ever heard was Crowds, and my buddy played it cause I was going through a breakup. That was back in 1987. Still love them today, 2023.
Bela Legosi’s dead is the song that created the genre.
Something struck me while watching this...was the one video filmed in the same place as Scroobius Pip and Dans Le Sac's "Stunner?" The bricks and tunnels, and that big circular area makes me thinks so...
I was privileged to see Bauhaus on several occasions but the one that stands out the most was they 1979 gig at the Warehouse in Leeds very short set due to the material they had but it was electric not seen anything like it before . The gig was only attended by a curious few but was one in a life time experience.
I saw them at the Northampton civic centre supporting house of love and magazine. My friend at school his dad was tour manager in the uk
i found this in search of info an a cassette i found in a thrift shop today best cassette find yet!
great interesting video thank you
Thanks for this, I'm going to have to give Burning from the Inside some more chances. And they announced Murphy was going into rehab only hours before they were supposed to take the stage on the Denver stop of the delayed tour but at least I got to see them here before the pandemic. Rotten luck on the DCD tour as well but it seems pretty obvious now that there's even less of a chance of ever seeing them live again.
I love your show its awesome and honest, and im not even Goth nore ever have been . I only ever knew one song by Bauhaus . Anyway keep it up i will be watching 10/10
Punk and glam and even some metal seem to all be important touchstones for Bauhaus, but they combined all that with pop, even, and they had a healthy love for
reggae/dub as well, and even funk, soul music. I've played Bauhaus for people who don't know them at all, and they often say "wow, this is too metal for me," or "too punk,"
but, it's not really any of those things, though there are elements of both in the music, of course. Bauhaus was quite original in their approach, and they never seemed
to get proper credit for that. Maybe these days they have. Then others have told me they can't deal with Bauhaus as it's "too avant garde." Which is a valid enough
criticism, most of their music is pretty jagged and not at all commercial, whatever that is. You weren't going to hear "Double Dare" on the AM American Top 40 radio
charts. LOL There's even a bit of a Kurt Weill/Brecht influence on some of their tracks, such as "The Three Shadows".
The one and only time I saw Bauhaus live...we had pit tickets...he swear on me ffs...well...Peter...not once...but two fuckin times during the show reaches down and hands my Fiance at the time...a rose. It..was...fuckin...amazing.
Antonin Artaud I believe was a major influence on the band as it developed, and also a hero of David's, etc. It's pronounced "An ton in Ar-Toeee" more or less. Artaud was early
on an important European silent film actor, also part of the original Surrealists (with whom he later had a falling out and distanced himself from) such as Breton, acted
in Abel Gance's film Napoleon, and also The Passion of Joan of Arc (a total silent masterpiece by Carl Dreyer who also directed Vampyr, another early "goth" masterpiece!). On Eject the band dedicates Double Dare to Artaud, whose writings are often fiery polemics against fascism and stupidity and falsity in art and life. Later Artaud was institutionalized due to mental illness and drug addiction issues, on and off. Artaud's major achievement might be his book The Theater and Its Double, which is still a spectacularly influential tome on the possibilities of a new Theater that has little connection to what is considered conventional "theater." He wanted theater to be a transformative, spiritual art. Also his acting is fondly remembered, as are his writings which are collected in various places. A lot of his writings are like bizarre surrealist polemics, or poetry, or both.
I did learn some stuff. On a side note, I saw Peter Murphy at the London passport office when collecting mine, but was too shy to say anything to him at the time. cheers for the video.
Thanks for doing this. Never will be another B house.
i saw their show last weekend in San Francisco all reunited and sounding awesome (for a change) ... Peter looks great having finally shaved the head and lost weight; Daniel can still bring it on the guitar though he's lost a step; David J is perfect as always on bass; and his little brother Kevin (one of my fave drummers actually) was excellent ... they are all in their 60s of course and i'm remembering the last time i saw the group in Hollywood 1998 which was an underwhelming attempt to re-connect with the music industry ... they all love playing to American audiences and bring it by preparing and doing their best ... i predict they will press for at least another year and be back around touring in 2023 ... i bought tickets to the Sept 12 show and will be travelling to Wash DC to see them wrap up this tour (they are basically taking July & August off) ... highly recommend seeing Bauhaus now that the old wine is aged to perfection
History/background of The Cramps would be intriguing!
Press The Eject is wonderful live album. Some of the best versions are there even the fantastic Man with X Ray Eyes live version.
A question. I saw Bauhaus by chance in 1980 supporting Magazine. On the basis of this, I saw them again a few days later at Brady's nightclub in Liverpool. They showed a short animated film of the creature that can be seen in this video on the label of In The Flat Field at 6.43. Does anyone remember seeing this short film, or know if it still exists and can be seen? Thanks.
Your makeup looks great on you! Subscribed. 😊
Omg, you are something special! 😊 🥰you remind me a little bit of Sam Rockwell. ❤
45 Grave could be discussed, and whatever happened to their guitarist Pat Smear? No one ever talks about him, other than him being in the Germs.
Like 45 Grave wasn't cool, and never existed, like when people didn't know about Samhain in between Misfits and Danzig.
Pat Smear went on to join some lesser-known bands such as Nirvana and The Foo Fighters..
You can thank the reggae influence on the bass player (David J). At the time they were forming, parts of the post punk scene were experimenting with Dub (a genre of Reggae), which is how we got bands like The Police (as the most notable example.) The bass he played on Bela Lugosi's Dead was a really slowed down Dub bassline, and it had influenced the band's overall sound through its history. It is why they occasionally sound kind of reggae, they actually are somewhat reggae at their roots. It is also why they are probably the only goth band to be able to slip into Dub/Reggae so seamlessly. It isn't a shift in style when it happens, just a shift in focus on what part of their sound is strongest.
I love Bauhaus!
Will you please film a video on Soft Cell ..?
and will you please film separate video about Marc Almond ? Thank you🖤🙂
It was Bauhaus that introduced me to Bella Lugosi. I don't mean they actually introduced us at a party in person, they just, you know, made me aware of him. And German art. They made me aware of that to, and subsequently, Der Blau Reiter.
Thanks, Bauhaus.
Lene Lovich would be so cool! 🦇
Eles continuam mandando bem ao vivo , apesar do tempo.... 🦇🦇🦇
Have too.. David J !! Most underrated Bass Player, seeing live.. minus D Ash . So what.. old Pete almost died.. which was crazy, because he's a badass.. no encores , but sounded great... In Santa Ana CA.. David J is Lord..
Very nice..
I love Bauhaus, especially the Skys Gone out. I feel this album is more more of a journey than than their others. Where did you get the really clean clips of them on the Oxford road show Top of the Poos. I had a video years ago with all these clips. What a performers
I am going to see them next week with my crush! Amazing video thank you so muchh!!! ALSO WISH ME LUCK HAHA
