Unfortunately, the band was&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/post-punk.com\/bauhaus-cancels-remainder-of-north-american-tour\/\">forced to cancel much of their North America reunion tour<\/a>&nbsp;as a result. This caused speculation as to how the rest of the band would handle the inevitable shift, and if they would carry on as Love and Rockets as they had done after Bauhaus broke up for the first time in 1983.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This weekend, we got our answer in the form of a new Instagram account: Love and Rockets (Daniel Ash, David J, and Kevin Haskins ), where the band hint at things beyond an ongoing reissue campaign in their inaugural post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s been a while since Love and Rockets have been active. Their last studio album release was 1998\u2019s&nbsp;<strong><em>Lift<\/em><\/strong>, with their last tour the following year.
