Siouxsie and the Banshees "The Scream" (1978)
Another one of those ones where I knew the band's name well but couldn't tell
you if I'd heard any of their music (though I feel like I buzzed through some
youtube clips a few years back).
This is alright, but I wouldn't say that I'm in love with the band just
yet. It's an okay album that mixes the rawness and lo-fi recording style
of punk with a doomier wailing goth flavour. Pounding drums and buoyant
bass are overlaid with guitar that goes between punky rock and
proto-shoegaze.
