I think I've played GO AWAY WHITE maybe three times? I forget which track it is, but at one point, you can hear Murphy murmuring into the mic "this would be a good place for a guitar solo," and hearing Daniel Ash in the background angrily saying, "this IS a guitar solo." Writing was on the wall, I suppose.

Crap album or not, I'll always love Bauhaus. Sure, Murphy dressed like a macabre Peter Pan a lot of the time, but there's simply no arguing with those records.

As I understand it, "Go Away White" was released incomplete because of one last, great ego explosion in the studio.  The boys parted ways for good after whatever was said, and "Go Away White" was put out (I assume because of contractual reasons) by slapping together some early takes and half-finished mixes.
