The Bela Session

Description

The legendary British quartet Bauhaus' very first recording session, released on vinyl for the first time for the band's 40th anniversary! Revered and highly influential, the band emerged from the post-punk alternative scene in the early 80s, with a series of innovative albums and powerful live performances. Their music embodies a unique minimalist and melancholic form of post-punk. This album captures Bauhaus' first recording session, which took place on January 26, 1979, six weeks after the band formed. It is the first release from this session, including six tracks, three of which are exclusive, and marks the official vinyl re-release of the single Bela Lugosi's Dead, considered the original track that influenced the British gothic movement of the late 1970s. The tracks are remastered versions from the analog tapes, available on vinyl for the first time.
