Bauhaus: Bauhaus Style
built 634 days ago
Inspired by the movement to free architecture from the reins of ornamental design, a British Rock band named itself Bauhaus. Popular in the 1980s, they are considered the first gothic rock band, combining punk music, glam rock, funk and dub to create a dark, but very passionate sound track which appealed to music patrons looking for something new. This style influenced a wave of post-punk groups and created a style which eventually came to be known as Gothic rock.
