Siouxsie and the Banshees were a British rock band formed in London in 1976 by vocalist Siouxsie Sioux and bassist Steven Severin, initially associated with the punk scene before evolving into pioneering post-punk innovators. Their 1978 debut single 'Hong Kong Garden' hit number seven in the UK, and after lineup changes bringing in guitarist John McGeoch and drummer Budgie, the band became one of the most successful alternative groups of the 1980s, with Kaleidoscope (1980) and Juju (1981) both reaching the UK top 10 and the latter influencing the emerging gothic scene. They released 11 studio albums before disbanding in 1996 and have been cited as an influence on Joy Division, the Cure, U2 and Radiohead.
