Siouxsie and the Banshees [suːzi ænd ðə ˈbænʃiːz] waren eine 1976 in London gegründete britische Rockband. Sie gelten als eine der wichtigsten Bands der Post-Punk- und Dark-Wave-Bewegung.Obwohl die Band außerhalb Großbritanniens kommerziell kaum erfolgreich war, erlangte sie einen Status als Kultband. Heute geben viele Rockbands (etwa LCD Soundsystem, U2, Massive Attack, TV on the Radio, Garbage, Radiohead, Bloc Party, Santigold) Siouxsie and the Banshees als Einflussquelle auf ihr musikalisches Werk an.Nach fünf Jahren Abwesenheit gab Siouxsie am 15. und 17.

"I've always tried to make a song that begins like "Kiss Them for Me". I think songs like "I Was a Lover" or "Wash the Day away" came from that element of surprise mode where all of a sudden this giant drum comes in and you're like, what the fuck?! That record was the first one where I was like, okay, even my friends who don't know who The Cure or Sonic Youth are, they're going to fall for this. I feel like that transition into that record was a relief for me. Really beautiful music was always considered too weird by the normal kids and that was the first example where I thought, we've got them, they're hooked! I watched people dance to that song, people who had never heard of any of the music that I listened to, they heard that music in a club and went crazy.↑ Simpson, Dave. "Rebellious Jukebox". "Garbage's Shirley Manson reveals what rings her bell". Melody Maker. 28/03/1998. 2 Siouxsie & the Banshees "The Scream". Primal Howl from the psychotic darklands of seventies punk. "Siouxsie embodied everything I wanted to be when I was a freaky adolescent. She was really articulate and string; there's so much power in songs like 'Jigsaw Feeling'. Siouxsie was my first schoolgirl crush. I always wanted black hair and black eyebrows but I couldn't have been further from that whole look because I was ginger! I still listen to 'The Scream' to this day and it's amazing."↑ "Radiohead Official US Biography" capitolmusic.ca. Colin Greenwood remembers: "The first single we're releasing is actually the longest song on the record. ("There There"). It was all recorded live in Oxford. We all got excited at the end because Nigel was trying to get Jonny to play like John McGeoch in Siouxsie And The Banshees. All the old farts in the band were in seventh heaven."↑ O'Kane, Josh: Talking Bloc during Harvest Jazz. In: [Here] New Brunswick. 18. September 2008. Abgerufen am 17. März 2012: „With the new record, he said he was inspired by a song written years ago by Siouxsie and the Banshees called Peek-a-boo. "I heard it for the first time, and it sounded like nothing else on this planet. This is just a pop song that they put out in the middle of their career that nobody knows about, but to me it sounded like the most current but most futuristic bit of guitar-pop music I've heard. I thought, that'd be cool, to make music that people might not get at the time, but in ten years' time, people would revisit it."“↑ Icon: Siouxsie", The Fader Magazine, The Icon Issue 67, April/May 2010.
