Listen free to Siouxsie and the Banshees – The Scream (Pure, Jigsaw Feeling and more). After building up an intense live reputation and a rabid fan base, Siouxsie and the Banshees almost had to debut with a stunner - which they did, "Hong Kong Garden" taking care of things on the singles front and The Scream on the full-length. Matched with a downright creepy cover and a fair enough early producing effort from Steve Lillywhite - well before he found gated drum sounds - it's a fine balance of the early band's talents

The Scream featured dark primal sounds accentuated by tribal percussion and jagged guitar work. This is highlighted on tracks such as Metal Postcard, and Overground, along noteworthy were the tracks Jigsaw Feeling, a cover of The Beatles Helter Skelter, and the stabbing screech of Suburban Relapse, The Scream changed everything-and one could argue that is was the first true Post-Punk LP, despite Magazine’s Real Life coming out 5 months earlier
