Featured review
Pleasurable pain.
Here we are, 7 years down the road from the break-up of Siouxsie and the banshees. The journey has been filled with both pleasure and pain, a lot like this DVD. On one hand you have had some of the creatures (siouxsie's home away from the banshees and joint avenue with husband/drummer budgie) best music. On the other hand she has had 7 years of mainly touring, and not singing many banshees tunes in the past 7 years.
The DVD starts out with an almost pointless intro song (pure) of siouxsie ooohing and awwwing. Then the show picks up with a strong performance of Jigsaw feeling, which is pretty well done.
Through out this show, you have your ups and your downs. But one thing we must admit is that Siouxsie's stage presence is strong and almost better then any show ever caught on tape. The years have been kind to her looks, but sadly not her voice. There are the pros of this show such as Metal postcard, icon, red light, night shift, and an amazing cover of the Beatles blue jay way.
One thing is undeniable, Siouxsie is an undying and strong figure and influence in the world of music. The banshees have left a mark on many artist in todays industry, and will continue to make an impact since the 29 years they have been making music unlike any other band.
(Check out 'Siouxsie Dreamshow, which is the new DVD featuring Siouxsie performing over 27 songs from the banshees and the creatures entire catalog with a 50 piece orchestra, with such songs as 2nd floor, Dear prudence, obsession, kiss them for me, godzilla, and lots more.
