Hi everyone, a band from the 70s I want to introduce is Bauhaus! I personally have been a fan of them for a few years. They are a gothic rock band from England, formed in 1978. Their name comes from a 1920’s art movement in Germany, also know as They were really unique in the sense that they mixed genres of music together like punk, funk, glam rock, to form their own creative sound. I would describe their sound as gloomy-post-punk A lot of people consider Bauhaus the pioneers of gothic rock. They never really reached any crazy commercial success, and accumulated a cult-like following throughout their career. The band broke up in 1983, but then grouped together for a “resurrection tour” in 1988. Then again, in 2005 untill 2008. Bauhaus was an important group because they went on to inspire sounds for many bands such as Marilyn Manson, Nine inch Nails, Soundgarden, My Chemical Romance, and much more. One song I suggest checking out is “All We Ever Wanted was Everything”. It truly is a beautiful song. One band that I’m also a fan of, MGMT did a cover of this song on a few years ago as well, so check this out too!
