Siouxsie and the Banshees: A Kiss in The Dreamhouse (Polydor)
Richard Cook, NME, 6 November 1982
IT'S RARE for a group to make their fourth LP and still be provocative, still be interested in themselves, let alone break any substantially new ground. For them to progress as far as Siouxsie and The Banshees have done on A Kiss In The Dreamhouse is a feat of imagination scarcely ever recorded. It's breathtaking.
