"Burning from the Inside" shares its name with Bauhaus's fourth studio album, released on Beggars Banquet in July 1983, and its writing credit is split four ways between Daniel Ash, David J, Kevin Haskins and Peter Murphy, with Ted Sharp and Derek Tompkins engineering.
The English gothic rock band made the album under a cloud. Murphy fell ill during the sessions, so the others got on with a lot of the writing and recording without him, with David J and Ash taking lead vocals on four songs. Starting without their singer caused friction inside the band, and by the time the album came out Bauhaus had already broken up. The name the album and this title track share came from a moment David J recounted in 2015, when a car he and Ash were sitting in caught fire and burned from the inside.
