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, bass-driven new-wave, T-Rex-esque dark-glam, and swirling, clattering, orchestral atmospherics, whilst churning it into a grand, velvet, Rimbaudian hallucination. To pin the band to one genre is nothing but reductive. Their influences run deep, encompassing everything from dub reggae to proto-electronic bands like Can and Suicide. As the NME says, “Bauhaus are to Goth, what Radiohead are to Prog.”
