风格相当独特的后庞克摇滚乐团Siouxsie And The Banshees组成于1976年,驰骋乐坛20年岁月,由AllMusic讚誉为「在摇滚黄金年代中影响甚钜的英国歌手」的女主唱Siouxsie Sioux所领军,她不仅为Female-Fronted Band风潮铺路,华丽派装扮也是聚焦的一大特色。1978-1995年总计推出11张录音室专辑,全数进佔英国金榜TOP 35,缔造多达18首英国流行榜TOP 40单曲。
换上英国80年代Synthpop运动推手之一的Stephen Hague(*New Order、Pet Shop Boys、Erasure)全权操盘1991年发行的专辑【Superstition】,登上英国TOP 25、美国No.65排行成绩,获得Q杂志4颗星高度评价。首支单曲“Kiss Them For Me”抢攻告示牌现代摇滚榜冠军与舞曲榜No.8席次。此2014年全新数位重製版加值收录卖座电影「蝙蝠侠大显神威」插曲“Face To Face”,以及“Kiss Them For Me”的两种混音版本。
Superstition is a similar album to that of Peepshow, this time with more precise production and a lighter feeling to many of the songs. While Siouxsie and the Banshees albums like Tinderbox and Juju were dark affairs, Superstition's sound is representative of the pink of the album cover. A softer pop sound, mixed with the Banshees' penchant for minor keys and strange imagery. They manage to pull it off quite well on most tracks. &Fear (Of the Unknown)& and &Drifter& are classic Siouxsie stuff, and &Kiss Them for Me& gave them their first significant entry into the U.S. singles charts. But it's tracks like &Silly Thing& that hold this album back. This track manages to do what the Banshees had avoided all their career -- sounding like someone else. One of their most accessible albums, Superstition has appeal without losing its edge.
