Late 2018 marked the 40th anniversary of Bauhaus. To celebrate, Beggars Arkive reissued six records from the band’s catalog on limited edition color vinyl.

Mask is the band’s second album, and was released by Beggars Banquet in 1981. On their sophomore album, Bauhaus consciously stretched themselves into newer areas of music and performance, resulting in an album that was arguably even better than the band's almost flawless debut.
