It was later reissued through 4AD and Beggars Banquet. The single arrived shortly after the band's groundbreaking debut “Bela Lugosi's Dead”, establishing the darker, more abrasive direction that would become synonymous with Bauhaus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eDriven by Daniel Ash's jagged guitar, Kevin Haskins' frenetic percussion, David J's bass and Peter Murphy's intense, breathless vocals, “Dark Entries” is considerably more punk-influenced and aggressive than the atmospheric reputation sometimes associated with Bauhaus. Its rapid pace, feedback and pounding rhythm capture the raw energy of the band's formative period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe single's untitled B-side adds an intriguing experimental counterpoint to the ferocity of the A-side. At just 1:24, “Untitled” is a brief but distinctive piece that makes this original two-track release particularly interesting for collectors and fans of Bauhaus' early work. The original 7\" release is documented with exactly this A\/B pairing and timings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e“Dark Entries” would later appear on Bauhaus' influential debut album \u003cem\u003eIn The Flat Field\u003c\/em\u003e, released by 4AD in November 1980. Its inclusion helped establish the track as one of the essential recordings from the band's early period, alongside songs such as “Double Dare”, “In The Flat Field” and “Stigmata Martyr”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eFor collectors of Bauhaus vinyl, gothic rock and classic post-punk 7\" singles, \u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDark Entries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an especially significant release. It belongs to the formative era of the 4AD\/Beggars Banquet independent scene and captures Bauhaus before their sound developed into the more expansive and experimental style heard across their later albums.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDark Entries — 3:51\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUntitled — 1:24\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o0OnHpuuMMo?si=dPdWW7ALPokeiOso\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Axis Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55226703577430,"sku":"AXIS3","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/1013\/7686\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_96e82579-61b4-41b4-b440-77b4e058cda9.jpg?v=1788599912","url":"https:\/\/www.sounds-grounds.co.uk\/products\/bauhaus-dark-entries-1","provider":"Sounds + Grounds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
