Favorite post-Bauhaus project?
I think I'll go with Daniel Ash's solo stuff for the time being, though I really dig Tones On Tail, a lot of Peter Murphy's solo work, and Love and Rockets.
I've never heard David J's solo work, but I know that it exists.

TONES ON TAIL, love the more oddball stuff. A lot of the other projects are a little too main stream for me.

There's really no competition. Peter Murphy is a poet. His solo work is better than most of his Bauhaus work.

Peter Murphy is pretty hit and miss, in my opinion. While he's got absolutely brilliant songs like "Cuts You Up" or "Subway (epilogue)," he also has some rather embarrassing songs like "Shy" or "Gliding Like a Whale." I like how varied he is though, he always keeps you guessing.

TONES ON TAIL!!! Their music kicks my ass.
Peter Murphy's solo crap is pretty good but he does have some corny sounding titles like Viscus said. I absolutely hate Love and Rockets. OMG, their songs piss me off so much just because they're so crappy in my opinion.
I have never listened to Daniel Ash's or David Jay's solo material though. Mostly because I have a strange feeling of how shitty I would find it, but I feel like that towards A LOT of artists I have never listened to.
My apologies if my post is somewhat offensive or unintelligible.

Oh come on, how could you not think this song is totally hot:

But if you don't like Love and Rockets, you probably wouldn't like Danny's solo albums either.

I have to go with Tones on Tail being my favorite. Although, I think that Love & Rockets was the most important.

Daniel Ash I suppose. Coming Down Fast is a really cool ass song. I want to fuck to it or maybe dominate someone to it.

I didn't put it on the poll because I didn't know about it until now, but apparently Kevin scores video games, films and TV shows with some guy named Doug DeAngelis under the moniker Messy Music.

Has to be TONES ON TAIL. Definitely proves that less is more. So simple and yet so cool.

That was quite a though choice there, I went with Love and Rockets in the end, they only barely won out against Tones on Tail though.
