"Through The Looking Glass" (1987), "Peepshow" (1988), "Superstition" (1991) and "The Rapture" are reissued with bonus tracks.

"Through The Looking Glass" is their cover album like Bowie's "Pin Ups".

"Peepshow" is an album with a rich palette of sounds. It had a five star review in Q magazine and was also praised in Spin.

"Superstition" is their poppiest album with their classic single "Kiss them for me" and the moving ballad "The Ghost in You". It featured Talvin Singh on percussion (who would later be Bjork's musical director on "Debut")

"The Rapture" is their last album that captured the band almost live. It was co-produced by John Cale. It includes a great swansong "Forever".

Johnny Marr said a cool comment about them these days:

Q: who do you regret not going to see live?
Johnny Marr: "Siouxsie and the Banshees mk 1. But mk 2 were even better." http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/johnny-marr-on-working-with-noel-gallagher-scottish-independence-and-more-twitter-qa

Cool, thanks for this. I hope they get a vinyl release!

I like 'FGM', the unreleased track with vocals they added on The Rapture. It works very well.

Wowza!! This looks pretty fantastic.

Siouxsie and the Banshees 20-disc ‘mega’ box set with 11 albums, live DVDs in works:

Also, this quote from Severin about a potential Banshees reunion made me laugh: "There is more liklihood of Peter Hook touring a Banshees tribute band than there is of seeing the real thing tread the boards again."

There won't be any mega box ! This news item of slicingupeyeballs.com is obsolete: it was published 3 years ago. :D

Chickpea, what you doing to me?
 
Re: Siouxsie and the Banshees, their last 4 studio albums remastered October 2014 + Johnny Marr's qu

Well, you're very good at it.
 
Re: Siouxsie and the Banshees, their last 4 studio albums remastered October 2014 + Johnny Marr's qu

Apparently, they pressed new copies of "Peepshow" remastered as there was a small glitch at the end of one track on the first ones. Steven Severin made an update and confirmed that amazon.uk deleted the cds with this small problem. Amazon.uk now only ships the good new cds. Cool

"New Skin" (one of the bonus tracks on The Rapture) is pretty cool, it is very The Slider-era T. Rex. I like it very much.

I wouldn't mind hearing the Siouxsie only version of Interlude.
 
Re: Siouxsie and the Banshees

April 2015, for Record Store Day, Join Hands (1979) their seminal album, is reissued on vinyl in an alternative new sleeve, it is in fact the very first artwork presented by John Maybury to Polydor in 1979. Join Hands is published with a bonus track yet unreleased on vinyl, Infantry. It is now "as it was meant to be" according to Siouxsie and Steven Severin.

Re: Siouxsie and the Banshees

Mike Joyce saw a few weeks ago Banshees drummer Budgie in Berlin, he posted a great picture with Budgie on fb. Mike Joyce said they talked about Siouxsie and the Banshees' 1981's ''Juju" album and of course John McGeoch, SATB fantastic guitarist of this era.
Looking at the picture, one sees that there is great connection between these 2 legendary drummers. Talented men !

Budgie is a special drummer. Mike was a bit star struck understandably. Nice post.
