For those of you new to Love and Rockets, they consist of David J on bass, Daniel Ash on guitar, and Kevin Haskins on drums. If you're saying, "Wait, that sound like Bauhaus without Peter Murphy!," you're right. David J and Daniel share vocal duties, something they started doing on the last studio album by Bauaus, Burning from the Inside. Love and Rockets put out there first album, Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven, in 1985. In between Bauhaus and Love and Rockets, the former members of Bauhaus worked on different projects. David J recorded solo stuff, something he still does (Ediquette of Violence), while Daniel Ash and Kevin Haskins formed Tones on Tail with Glenn Campling. Tones on Tail are also worthly of your music collection if you enjoy Love and Rockets. Try and find the import copy of Night Music, or better yet get the new compliation, Everything. Just like it says, it is everything Tones on Tail ever did. Anyhow, Love and Rockets, while they don't put out an album every year, are still recording. In between albums, Daniel Ash has put out some solo records of his own, and had a minor hit with the singleThis Love. And, for a while, David J was a member of the Jazz Butcher. I've heard that they also DJ a bit in the LA area in their spare time.
The new album, Lift, and the new singles, Resurrection Hex and Holy Fool are available now. Buy them at your local record store or online. Check out the cover in my image section, and see the track listing for Resurrection Hex in the news section. Reminds me of the "Hot Trip to Heaven" Love and Rockets which I happened to like a lot.
