The entire back catalogue of Siouxsie & The Banshees has been remastered and will be released over the next year. Their first reissue is their 1978 debut album, The Scream. By the time it made its first appearance back in November 1978, Sioux had already left behind the toybox pallet of punk - swearing, swastikas and simple pogo-friendly riffs - and was busy inventing post-punk. While punk's Year Zero mentality meant bands were tossing the Bolan out with the Roger Waters, the Banshees were happy to raid pop culture for starting points. 'The Scream. is leading off a procession of Banshees re-releases over the coming 12 months or so, and in a world where it's easy to assume there's nobody left on a major label who much cares about music, it brings a tear to the cynical eye to see just how much care has been lavished on the package. The original collection of tracks has been given the expected digital remastering.
