Siouxsie & The Banshees were absofuckinglutely one of the most brilliant bands. Their music had such depth & artistry and craft to it that it truly stands the test of time. Love it. I feel bad for these 20-nothings who are fed a daily drivel of rap and r&b crap, sung by skanky talentless ho's who need their voices modified just to get thru a song.

Don't you love how the 80's singers like Siouxie or Kate Bush are still WAY sexier and more sensual all covered up, than Lady Gaga strapping 2 pieces of duct tape on her tatters :D <3

@brikered Gaga will be long forgotten while people will still be listening to Siouxie. Gaga's just a throw away piece of media event trash. The only way she'll be able to be on anyone's mind will if she goes the way of another limited talent like Madonna, making a big deal about herself, going off to buy children in some 3rd world country or some other splashy thing that doesn't involve actually producing music.

The constant transition effect felt cheesy at first (2011) but in the end really worked for me and stands the test of time. Doesn't hurt Siouxsie was a pivotal influence in my juvenile years. I am largely who I am because of artists like her, Alison M, Chrissie H., etc. Finally got to see her once in '91 at the KROQ Weiner Festival (?), I think Budgie played a few Creature songs but that may have been another gig. It's really a shame my brain's so fried but I'll never forget the heart of it.

makes me think of Ab Fab lol :)

R&B LOL man that stuff blows asshole.

@PatrickDC202 As a 20-something, I can assure you that I don't listen to R&B and crap like that. I've been into Siouxsie, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, and all that good stuff since I was 13 :-)
