I had chick friends back in the day who loved Souxsie. To me, they were a good band with lots of melodius songs with good hooks, and Souxsie always seemed kind of like the female version of Robert Smith.

However, I didn't like them as much as The Cure. And now I think they sound dated. Cities in Dust doesn't sound nearly as good today as something like Just Like Heaven.

Last month, the debut album of "Savages" received rapturous reviews and has been compared to Siouxsie and the Banshees. Siouxsie is an excellent band.

Siouxsie has been cited by The Smiths, both Johnny Marr and Morrissey. She has been
covered by LCD Soundsystem, Massive Attack, Tricky, Jeff Buckley, Red Hot Chili Peppers... Their best albums are Kaleidoscope and Juju

I checked out the music of the band SAVAGES Ian....what can I say ..excellent!! Thanks for the introduction...I will be checking them out more !! The girl singers voice is so close to early SIOUXSIE its scary.
Yes SIOUXSIE has been a big influence to many over the years ....bands like Esben and the Witch,Faith and the muse,Mephisto Waltz,The Breath of Life,Reliquary....come to mind.
