Crackle – The Best of Bauhaus, sometimes referred to simply as Crackle, is a greatest hits compilation by the gothic rock band Bauhaus. The album was released in 1998, during the band's Resurrection Tour. It includes remastered versions of some of their single hits and most popular songs.
Crackle is a considerably shorter compilation of Bauhaus' work than their previous 'best of' albums 1979-1983: Volume 1 and 1979-1983: Volume 2, and was described in a review in Allmusic as an excellent single-disc overview of the group's work.[1]
A booklet accompanying the CD contains photographs, excerpts from the lyrics, credits, discography and a poem.
