Sounds better with each listen...

"I'm a new Bauhaus fan and I love this cd! I knew about Bauhaus and their 'gothic' music but I've never heard their music before (shame on me) so I decided to give this 'best of' CD a chance. At first I didn't "get" their music. It was dark (duh), noisy, and lyrics were nonsense, but as I listen more and more, I started to get their music and now I have much respect for their musicianship. The same respect I give to people like John Lennon and David Bowie. I can't believe they were making this kind of music in the early 80's, it still sounds forward-looking. Underneath their dark make-ups and custumes, they are really talented musicians! Especially the way they arranged music, oh man, it's genius!
if you are new to Bauhaus like me, I defintely recommend this cd as your first stop. I'm gonna by Vol. 2 next."
