Båuhåus – Dark Entries
Bauhaus – Dark Entries
Dark Entries is the electrifying debut single from Bauhaus, a landmark release that helped lay the foundations for gothic rock and established the band as one of the most innovative acts to emerge from the post-punk movement. Originally released in 1980, the single remains a cornerstone of alternative music history and a must-have for collectors of early independent releases.
Driven by jagged guitar riffs, urgent rhythms, and the theatrical vocal delivery of Peter Murphy, Dark Entries combines punk energy with a darker, more atmospheric edge. The song's intensity, distinctive sound, and striking lyrical imagery would become hallmarks of Bauhaus's influential style, helping to shape the emerging gothic rock scene of the early 1980s.
The B-side features the brief instrumental Untitled, an experimental piece that further highlights the band's willingness to push beyond traditional rock conventions. Together, these recordings capture the raw creativity and artistic ambition that made Bauhaus one of the most important bands of their era.
Essential for fans of post-punk, gothic rock, darkwave, and alternative music, Dark Entries remains a pivotal release whose influence can still be heard across countless modern artists.
