Perfectly grey day, perfect grey day band

Some bands naturally lend themselves to grey, dreary and gloomy days like today.
Bauhaus comes to mind, and I have been listening to the Northampton, England band off-and-on throughout the day.
"Bela Lugosi's Dead," their 1979 debut, sounds great when skies are abnormally dark. Three-quarters of the band found later fame as Love and Rockets and singer Peter Murphy proved a successful solo artist. I liked them all best in their original incarnation, however. Bauhaus will always be a great band for the greyest of days.
