After an extensive U.S. trek this spring and a second round of well-timed CD-release performances in June, Peter Murphy will take his tour in support of new album ‘Ninth’ across Europe in October — a 20-date campaign that includes five shows in the U.K. and four in Germany.

It’s a great year for Peter Murphy fans, with new album ‘Ninth’ in stores and a Dalis Car sequel on the horizon — and now comes an expanded 25th anniversary reissue of the former Bauhaus leader’s solo debut ‘Should the World Fail to Fall Apart,’ complete with an unreleased mix of the title track.

The new video for ‘I Spit Roses’ by director Justin Coloma finds Peter Murphy — who’s done time as and-screen vampire — made up like some sort of pirate as he makes his way through the nautically themed story.

While he hasn’t yet premiered the music video for ‘Ninth’ lead-off single ‘I Spit Roses,’ Peter Murphy has certainly teased it, first with a Facebook gallery of on-set photos, and now this nearly 3-minute behind-the-scenes clip.

The fairly predictable playlist for Sirius XM’s ‘Dark Wave’ received a much-appreciated shakeup tonight thanks to guest host Peter Murphy, who managed to slip a barrage of unlikely artists ranging from Antony and the Johnsons to Sxip Shirey into the mix.

Tonight’s installment of ‘Dark Wave’ on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave will feature guest host Peter Murphy of Bauhaus. The show airs 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. EDT on the satellite radio network.

The folks at Nettwerk Music have done a good job these past few months teasing Peter Murphy’s upcoming album ‘Ninth,’ and now that its release is imminent — the record arrives Tuesday — the label is streaming the full 11-track album.
