Well, after 25 years without a new album release, its no wonder the mixed reviews for the new (and apparently final) Bauhaus album. Expectations were high. I've been a Bauhaus fan for about ten years and have had their older albums for a long time and I'm familiar with how they USED to sound. I'm a music lover who loves change from artists I appreciate and Bauhaus is no different. I wouldn't have wanted Go Away White to sound like Mask or Burning From The Inside and luckily it doesn't. Go Away White sounds like a garage-rock album, but with clarity. David J's bass is thick and audible, Daniel Ash's guitars are loud and crunchy, and Kevin Haskin's drums are solid and deep. Peter Murphy is as dramatic and crooning as ever. I personally think this album rocks. It's a modern rock "n" roll album with a vintage feel and deserves to be played loud. The only track I found unecessary was the last track, which really wasn't music at all.

Bottom line, the last time this band made new music was 25 freakin' years ago, so why even bother making comparisons? This album stands on its own and I think it's a great record worth repeated listens. Its dark, rockin', and dramatic and that's the way I've always loved Bauhaus. Highlights are Adrenalin, Endless Summer Of The Damned, The Dog's A Vapour , and Saved (weird song but gooood). Fans of the Bauhaus of old owe it to themselves to check this album out. Definitely THE surprise release of 2008 and probably the last decade.

P.S. I don't know about the rest of you guys who actually bought the cd, but I got a cool sticker with mine. Enjoy.
