What's your favourite Siouxsie & The Banshees record ?

Torn Curtain · 07.23.2007, 04:03 PM

No poll as there are more than 10 records.

Mine is Juju (awesome guitar playing by late John McGeoch).

What's yours ?

P.S. I've written record and not album because Nocturne and Through the looking glass can't be neglected in my opinion.

No idea but if you want to know more about Siouxsie and the banshees talk to the stage manager at Brixton Academy, he was on her crew or Dave who does the live music dvds at the top of canal st market in Camden. He was on her crew too

John McGeoch is dead? Wow, didn't know that. He had a good style. I remember Robert Smith saying he had to work hard to get his parts down for the tour he was on with Sioux.

My fave is probably Tinderbox. Some great guitar on that one too, also by John.

Sioxsie Sioux has her debut solo album, Mantaray, released September 10th.

Same album for me.

Nocturne is the live one, isn't it? If it is, then that's my favourite.

Robert Smith is very good on it.

John McGeoch doesn't play on Tinderbox actually.

MellySingsDoom · 07.24.2007, 06:37 AM

"The Scream" pour moi, followed by "Join Hands".

freefenix · 07.24.2007, 05:10 PM

Kaleidoscope

SuperCreep · 07.25.2007, 05:53 AM

Juju is probably their most cohesive effort, but I find them to be a singles band.

Destroyed · 03.10.2008, 02:52 AM

I've only heard 3 records by them:

Juju>Kaleidscope>Tinderbox

Cantankerous · 03.10.2008, 03:01 AM

kaleidoscope, purely for "christine"

Toilet & Bowels · 03.10.2008, 03:23 AM

i've only heard that hong kong garden song, i thought it was rubbish

Death & the Maiden · 03.10.2008, 04:58 AM

The Scream.

Florya · 03.10.2008, 07:49 AM

Ju Ju, although The Scream is also excellent.

Everyneurotic · 03.10.2008, 12:26 PM

juju since it's the only one i've listened to after avoiding them like the plague for so many years.

great album, though.

batreleaser · 03.10.2008, 01:23 PM

i was gonna make a post about "seminal bands who u cant helt but despise" but i didnt feel like it, and siouxie was gonna be right behind the cure on my list, ive tried to like them and listened to a few of their alblums, but fuck do they bore me.

krastian · 03.10.2008, 02:36 PM

I usually just go straight for the first singles collection.
