Bauhaus - The Sky’s Gone Out
That difficult third album syndrome…
As a post-punk outfit which ended end up being a pre-goth band, Bauhaus examined all aspects of rock but, within their trademark gloom, added a dark edge. This album is a perfect example of what happens when a band establishes themselves within a newly formed musical genre, gains notoriety from it and then wishes to move on but gets restrained by fan expectation and inertia. There are, however, some excellent moments, including the Eno cover, Third Uncle, and Spirit, which finds the band on top form.
