Burning from the Inside, Bauhaus's fourth studio album, came out on Beggars Banquet in July 1983, and by then the Northampton band had already split, calling it quits days before the record reached the shops. The trouble started in the studio, where Peter Murphy fell ill and spent long stretches away, leaving Daniel Ash, David J and Kevin Haskins to carry the sessions, and the rift that opened up never closed.

You can hear the strain, but the record finds a brooding, spacious beauty in it anyway, gothic gloom shot through with the band's old taste for dub shadows and glam-rock swagger. "She's in Parties" gave them a UK Top 30 single, and for a quarter of a century this stood as the last Bauhaus studio album made entirely of new songs.
