专辑介绍

★时代杂志推崇：「在后庞克的黄金年代中，最为大胆且不妥协的音乐冒险家」

★最后一张录音室专辑邀请另类摇滚先驱The Velvet Underground创始成员John Cale（*Nick Drake、Brian Eno、Patti Smith）与乐团共同製作

★2014年全新数位重製版加值收录“O Baby”混音版、电影「美国舞孃」衬乐“New Skin”、首度曝光之作“FGM”

后庞克代表乐团Siouxsie And The Banshees于1978-1995年间总计推出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。他们在庞克音乐崛起的70年代成军，精彩混入80年代新浪潮电子声响，加上冰冷诡谲的歌德式摇滚，更拥有被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，她不仅替Female-Fronted Band风潮铺路，华丽派装扮也是聚焦的一大特色。

乐团于1995年出版最后一张专辑【The Rapture】，请到另类摇滚先驱The Velvet Underground创始成员John Cale（*Nick Drake、Brian Eno、Patti Smith）与乐团共同製作，并特别运用古典大提琴陪衬增色，登上英国金榜第33名，献上“O Baby”和“Stargazer”两首排行榜大作。此加值版追入”O Baby”混音+电影「美国舞孃」衬乐”New Skin”+首度曝光之作”FGM”！

Rapture is an ironic title, considering that this would be Siouxsie and the Banshees' last album, which is sad. Sad because the Banshees, one of the survivors of the English punk scene, went out with a whisper instead of roaring howl like they should have. Half of The Rapture is produced by Velvet Underground alumnus and art rock pioneer John Cale, while Siouxsie and her Banshees take control of the other half. Cale should have been nowhere near this album. While the Banshees-produced tracks sound like their vintage stuff, the Cale tracks stretch the Banshees' sound too thin. Siouxsie and the Banshees were at their best when they were doing things their way, and The Rapture is living proof that the Banshees succeeded because they never tried to fit into conventional musical structures. An ill-fitting goodbye.
