It's been 35 years since the release of Bela Lugosi's Dead, the classic Bauhaus
track that helped birth generations of goths. Now 56, singer Peter Murphy is still
creating compelling records and influencing electronic and industrial artists.
His new album, Lion, arrives June 3 on Nettwerk Records and offers a confident,
grinding jolt to the system. Here is the first listen to Eliza.

UPDATE:
Quick show review from Wed, June 11 – Hamden CT @ The Outer Space
Ringo Deathstar - with the distortion and reverb it was so loud, you could not hear anything.
Peter was fantastic, it was the wrong venue, the sound was awful, but at least they finally realized they did not need to turn it up all the way, Peter keep signaling to turn it down. Wish more if his older songs were played. Although he did add "She's in Parties" to our line up. New album was not at the show for sale, just a t-shirt, seems they were promoting more the $100 meet and greet.
