Bauhaus - In The Flat Field

Bauhaus - In The Flat Field

$54.00 AUD

Black Vinyl • Single Sleeve

Bauhaus strip it back to tension. In the Flat Field is rigid, angular and deliberately cold. The rhythm drives forward without release. Guitars cut rather than fill. The vocal sits above it, detached. It doesn’t soften. It doesn’t resolve. A debut that defines its own atmosphere.

About the album.

Released in 1980, In the Flat Field is the debut album from Bauhaus and a foundational release in the development of gothic rock.

Formed in Northampton, England, the band combined elements of punk and glam with darker, more minimal arrangements, establishing a distinct and influential sound. Led by vocalist Peter Murphy, the album is driven by stark instrumentation and a focus on mood and structure over melody.

Tracks such as Double Dare, Spy in the Cab and Nerves emphasise repetition and tension, shaping a record that remains direct, uncompromising and influential.

This reissue has been remastered for vinyl, offering a refined presentation of the original recording.
