Bauhaus "Press The Eject And Give Me The Tape"

FORMAT

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. The album features a striking version of John Cale's "Rosegarden Funeral Of Sores," a particularly spooky run-through of "Hollow Hills" that out-creeps the studio version on "Mask," and the punk-rock, fuzz-out of "Dark Entries." Of course, "Bela Legosi Is Dead" 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 center of goth mythology.
