Original




 

I saw Bauhaus in '83 in Berkeley, a year before they broke up.  Took some pictures at the little bar I saw them at, so I'm a big PM fan.  I actually had a tear in my eye when I heard that they disbanded.

I then saw them in Sunrise, Florida in the early 90s and that was a good show.

I'm also a long time Joy Division & New Order fan and actually have an EP of them when they were first known as Warsaw.  Most of the above, I have on vinyl.

NIN, I never really got into, much.

ETA:  

I just listened to both.  Atmosphere is such a pretty song, musically, that I don't think that the harder edge of the PM/TR cover does Joy Division (players) much justice.  PM's attempt is soft, deep and brooding, so he get's a B or B+, but I'm going to have to give the music a C+.  

Just listen to the drums and bass on the original, both are close to sublime.  I have the 12" 45rpm FACTUS copy and I might just have to fire up the vacuum tubes and turntable tomorrow and crank the shit out of it for my neighbors.

Trent Reznor... he is a moonbat government worshiper but tries to act like an anarchist

Didn't they conspire to write "Cherry Pie" for Warrant? I thought I read that in "Spin" or "Rolling Groan" or someplace like that.

NIN does a great cover of "Dead Souls".
That's one of my favorite Joy Division songs.


When They Were Gods...

I personally thought pretty hate machine was brilliant.

One of those start to finish albums which you don't get to hear anymore.
