SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES The Scream (Half-Speed Master Edition 2018 UK/EU limited edition 10-track LP pressed on 180-gram Black Vinyl. Originally released in 1978, The Scream remains one of the defining statements of post-punk's formative years. Emerging from the London scene but rejecting punk's orthodoxies, the album introduced an austere, rhythm-driven sound built around Steven Severin's stark basslines, Kenny Morris' disciplined percussion, and Siouxsie Sioux's commanding, incantatory vocal presence. Tracks such as Overground, Metal Postcard and a reimagined Helter Skelter established the group's uncompromising identity and set the template for much of what followed in alternative music. Remastered from the original ¼" tapes and cut at half speed at Abbey Road Studios, with audio and artwork overseen by Siouxsie Sioux and Steven Severin. Picture sleeve with original cover artwork, hype sticker & factory sealed. Recommended).
