Who Killed Mister Moonlight?: Bauhaus, Black Magick, and Benediction

Who Killed Mister Moonlight?: Bauhaus, Black Magick, and Benediction by David J. Haskins
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1908279664 | 320 pages | EPUB | 8 MB

David J. Haskins (aka David J.) was born in Northampton, England, in 1957, and was a founder member of Bauhaus, the highly influential band that spearheaded the post-punk alternative-music scene of the early 80s with a string of innonative albums and a powerfully dramatic live presentation.

Following the band's split in 1983, he embarked on a long and varied solo career that has produced a series of critically acclaimed albums and various avant-garde collaborations. He has also written and directed a number of stage productions, including the spectacular multimedia event Silver For Gold ( The Odyssey Of Edie Sedgewick), and The Chanteuse And The Devil's Muse, a surrealistic investigation into the notorious black Dahlia murder mystery, plus several screenplays (with writing partner Don C. Tyler), and his visual art has been exhibited internationally.


Review
Heroic and absurd, scurrilous and profound, Who Killed Mister Moonlight? charts the descent of four intelligent young men with faces like ruby-eyed dime-store skull rings into a glittering and very modern maelstrom. Fast, compelling, and disarmingly honest, this is an invaluable account of a strange and spectral cultural twilight era that we shall almost certainly never see again. Highly recommended. – Alan Moore, author of V For Vendetta and Watchmen
