I just got "Juju" tonight and I must say that it really rocks. Anyone else like them? If so..what other albums do you recommend?

IMO "the scream" is their best album. listen to "nicotine stain" and "overground". nothing to do with the popier sounds of Peepshow. just pure post punk noise. beautiful. and a great cover of "helter skelter". juju is a great second option. fortunately the S&TB back catalogue is all in smile price, not like the cure one that still costs 15€. i don't dig the creatures that much tho'. interesting but so much less catchy.

Thanks for all of the suggestions and such! I'll go and get Peepshow as soon as I can!

S&tB are great. Run out right now and get the Peepshow album- it's perfect for listening to in October. And get Superstision on the first day of spring. Trust me. |

No Beatles covers on "looking Glass" There are covers of The Doors, Kraftwerk, Iggy Pop, Billy Holliday, Sparks, and even "Trust in Me" from The Jungle Book.
Also, I believe Budgie was the drummer and is married to Siouxsie.

October, welcome and thank you for citing those lovely, lovely songs. Ahh, the crazy, hazy memories.
Crouton, you're in for a delightful experience. Nocturne still kills me every time. I think I listened to that every single day in college.
 I still believe in the excellent joy of the Frank |

Hey, I'm new here, but I've been lurking for a while. As I'm a massive Banshess fan too I thought I'd pop up to answer Stuart.
Robert Smith appeared on the album Hyaena and the live Nocturne album and video. He also was on the Dear Prudence, Swimming Horses and Dazzle singles.
Hope that helps.

I was looking to get hold of the Siouxie albums which Robert Smith contributed on, does anyone know which ones they are?

I love Juju, but my favourite's A Kiss In The Dreamhouse. There's a song on Juju that sounds exactly like a Placebo one (I don't have the album here but I think it's "Monitor").

I like them...haven't seen them.... i really like her voice (but not as much as Kim's) i can't remember what album(s) i owned... but she with her vampy eyeshadow was definitely something I looked up to as a young goth/alt chick...cool band cool sound |

Negative points for coining the phrase 'happy house' in a musical context.
Made up for by the fact the guitarist is called Budgie.

My wife likes 'em.
I never really got it. I did like "Peek-A-Boo" though.

I love the first Creatures album (Boomerang)
I haven't heard a Banshees record I didn't like EXCEPT for The Rapture which is abysmal. Superstition is mostly good.
I like Through the Looking Glass which is all covers, but is probably one of the best covers albums ever made.

Yes!
"Hyaena" is a good next move. I can hook you up when you get back.
Also, don't know if you're already on this, but The Creatures and The Glove are superb.
