Beginning with the creation of Bauhaus’s seminal debut hit ‘Bela Lugosi’s Dead’,
David J. offers a no-holds-barred account of his band’s rapid rise to fame and
glory in the late 70s, their sudden dissolution in the 80s, and their subsequent
(and often strained) reunions.
In between, he explores his work as a solo performer, and with acclaimed trio
Love And Rockets—culminating in the devastating fire that ripped through the
sessions for their 1996 album Sweet F.A. He also delves deep into his exploration
of the occult, drawing together a diverse cast of supporting characters, including
William S. Burroughs, Alan Moore, Genesis P. Orridge, and Rick Rubin.
