TERMINATRYX - Bela Lugosi’s Dead (cover of the classic Gothic song by Bauhaus)

Is the 1982 BAUHAUS track BELA LUGOSI’S DEAD one of the most Goth songs ever? If not, what is? (suggestions in the comments please). Sonja has always loved the song (celebrating its 40th anniversary!) and as we did with our live unplugged cover version of TYPE O NEGATIVE’S Black No.1 for last year’s World Goth Day, we thought we should do something again for 2022. Easy, right? Problem is, the date really jumped on us and before we knew it there was just a week until Goth Day! (22 May). So in that small timeframe the song had to be figured out, recorded and mixed, the video conceived, produced, shot and edited. An ambitious task that unfortunately just missed the planned Goth Day date - but, with many late nights to get the song and video done, we’d rather ensure the end result is something we’re happy with in stead of pleasing those who will hold us to our word, demanding we deliver! We also didn’t make any huge announcements, only a post stating that there’s a surprise coming on Goth Day…
