The Sky's Gone Out - Bauhaus
Builds on the style of the debut, and indulges in successful experiments.
Some songs are a little weak, or rely too much on volume gimmicks, and lack structure.

Press The Eject And Give Me The Tape - Bauhaus
A slightly different take on some songs.
A bit cheeky to sell it as an independent album, considering it was originally a bonus LP.

All the hits, great value
Doesn't include the band's highly regarded 1990s work
Frank: Expanded Reissue - Squeeze
A musical lesson in the history of british guitar pop.Musically&lyrically cool&catchy.Retro appeal.
Not their best album, but definitely doesnt deserve to have flopped as much as it did.
Burning From The Inside - Bauhaus
Some more material that may never have happened.
A disappointing swan song.
