192: Kevin Haskins (Bauhaus, Tones on Tail, Love and Rockets, etc.)

Kevin Haskins’s spare, hypnotic style laid the foundation for goth luminaries, Bauhaus. He tells Joe about: growing up in Northampton; seeing bands like The Who and Led Zeppelin; how the burgeoning punk scene gave him confidence to pursue music; playing the now-classic “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” for the first time; the sense of devastation he experienced after the breakup of Bauhaus; working with subsequent bands such as Tones on Tail and Love and Rockets; and passing on his love of music to his children. Check out the new Bauhaus release “The Bela Session” out this Friday, 11/23.
