I will listen to this, Juju, and Tinderbox in their entirety at practically any given time.
The various songs from Kaleidoscope and Dreamhouse are on shuffle but I never play those albums as albums.

Listening to Join Hands for the first time in many years (20?) and I'm struck again how much it sounds like a raw, awkward debut compared to The Scream's power and assurance. "Mother / Oh Mein Papa" is the only song I genuinely like.

It's a beautiful piece of work. "Suburban Relapse" is definitely one of their most underrated songs.

Yes, and I used to read a zine long ago called Suburban Relapse

Okay so obviously this is pre-Budgie but since this thread got revived it seems the best place to put this story he posted today on Facebook up:https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10158582300786136&id=545041135&_rdr#!/story.php?story_fbid=2796465283921129&id=1516088061958864

Wow, new Facebook message calls Budgie’s time in the ICU routine maintenance and says he’LL be drumming again in a few days. That’s good. I guess he was with Banshees the one time I saw Siouxsie Sioux and them in early 80s

His response to his doctor's comment was just charming: "You're famous!" "Only in my own head".
I saw him on the Creatures tour in 99 or 00, he was mesmerizing with his array of things to hit.
