What is Your Favorite Siouxsie and the Banshees album

I am curious. And I cannot wait to find out what is your favorite Siouxsie and the Banshees album.

I am not including live albums, or collections.

Wasn't a fan but I just recently found out Robert Smith played guitar for them.

Yes, on Hyæna, and the live album Nocturne. Excellent stuff. Smith's playing on Night Shift (Nocturne) is nightmare and orgasm inducing!

I believe that was an outtake from "The Lord's Prayer" (Join Hands). But since it was not released on an official album, I did not include it.

I saw them play one night back in '79 or '80 at a small venue in London. Great gig. I never really followed through with the albums though.

Aha, they're all on Napster. Looks like I've got some catching up to do.

Listened to The Scream this morning. Join Hands playing now. Good stuff.

I've a way to go before I can answer the poll though.

Useful things, Napster subscriptions

Well, The Scream is well ahead of Join Hands, I think. That second album seemed a bit formless; there were a few tracks that started well, but overall it felt mostly hammered out on one level. The Scream seemed to have more depth, and I ended up wanting to revisit it.

These are of course, just first impressions.

A seminal British punk act emerging in the late 70s. I remember Siouxsie as being someone determined to follow her own musical path regardless of the way general musical tastes were evolving, but I confess I didn't follow her on through the 80s to see where she ended up! Hence this thread's piqued my interest.

Shame on you. Why isn't MantaRay (2007) listed in the poll? Her most mature sound. Just because she got absent minded in her old age and misplaced the Banshees.............

As someone comments on this youtube video:

"This is what Gothic culture used to be, not fat ugly 14 year old little pukes in tripp pants stealing shit from the mall. It used to be dark , beautiful, glamorous and above all sensual."


Damn it. Why did you bring this subject up. Now I've got to dig out all my old cd's, put on my black t-shirt and jeans, slump in a corner with a moody pout, and listen to them again.
