Lift Off: Love And Rockets
Dave Thompson, Alternative Press, 2002
YOU COULD, MAYBE, be forgiven if you weren't expecting Love And Rockets to be dropping by to play, just yet. It was, after all, only yesterday that the three founding members were on the road with Bauhaus, the band they founded way back when; a live album from that tour is imminent, a concert video and maybe... just maybe... a new studio album as well.
