With all the worst parts of 80's music being resurrected in the past few years you'd think that those at the forefront (ahem! la roux) of would have at least given these guys a nod. This is where the quality was back in those day, Bauhaus still haunt me now...totally brilliant.

cuando un amigo me presto el cassete ..que por cierto jamas regrese, me fascino la banda.. y saber tiempo despues que son los iniciadores del movimiento gótico, o cuasí.. ... y creo que en ese ritmo decadente, jamás debio de haber desaparecido.. ( the gotic was R.I.P) T,T..

The same but on english... [ " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " " "]
