Actually, I take back my last comment. At no point is Kaleidoscope underwhelming.

one day I went through all of the SatB material on Spotify and made a playlist of the songs I thought were absolutely 100% indispensible
today I am playing it and I was totally OTM

I was thinking the same thing about Hyaena!
I'll go years without listening to Siouxsie and then it'll be time for the full immersion.

damn, the At the Beeb stuff is great, i've never seen any of it before. the live version of "tenant" is so good!

Hyaena has Swimming Horses, which is just gorgeous

until you watch the video where the guys stand around embarrassed in their longjohns while film is projected onto them and Sioux swans around in front.https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/54/83/fa/5483fac4d4ecbcff7546d2940a89a317.jpg

Peepshow was my first Siouxsie album and I probably would have voted for it had I seen this poll.
I wonder the identity of the one voter who chose it and their criteria? Was it you, Johnny fever?

Fantastic Hyaena-era show. Audio only.

Hyæna is so weirdly underrated now; granted McGeoch's shadow was astoundingly long but still, it's Robert Goddamn Smith on that thing! That whole two year stretch of him doing that, the tours, the Glove AND UK pop breakthrough Cure is so insane.
― Ned Raggett, Saturday, 1 July 2023 14:54 (one year ago) link
Yes! And his playing on the tour and album as heard in that link was fire and brimstone in a way I never heard come from him in his band.

"5 for sale from $103.26"

Yeah a nice run but Hyaena is by far the weakest thing to come out of it. Not his fault by any means
