Reply to "Siouxsie Sioux"

I absolutely adore the new Creatures single, "Godzilla!" It's just been released in three parts, one of which contains a video. I managed to snag Part 1, which contains two additional songs, "The Temple of Dawn" and "Attack of the Super Vixens." Hot.

Siouxsie fans more partial to the Spellbounds and Peek-A-Boos won't find much to like here. This single from the soon-to-be-released album "HAI!" (recorded in Japan) marks a return to the very tribal sounds of the Creatures' first full-length album, "Feast": lots of howling and whoops, cymbals, and hypnotic percussion. Very terrestrial. Spellbinding. And the result of some hallucinogens, I'd say! Fun! Hai!

I prefer the sound of this to "Anima Animus," which though I also enjoyed, lacked the personality of their previous efforts, "Feast" and "Boomerang." They were recorded in Hawaii and Spain, respectively, and were really infused with much local spirit, as I suspect "Hai!" will be.
