Full review
Bauhaus' final studio album from their 80s career feels very much like a collection of songs that was hastily put together, rather than a single, cohesive effort. The reason for this is that effectively that's how the album came about. some of the recordings were made without lead singer Peter Murphy being present, meaning that the other band members had to contribute vocals on a few of the tracks.
Nevertheless there are some great songs on this album, most notably "She's in Parties", a quirky but almost poppy track which became probably the most famous on the album. However, the title track wears on you after a little while, and the songs do not seem to go together as well as they do on the band's earlier albums.
"Burning from the Inside" is effectively a last spasmodic kick by a band that was already beginning to fall apart. I would recommend it to Bauhaus fans who have their other albums, but would probably recommend to newcomers to this band that they explore the delights of the band's earlier albums first.
