“Syd was a painter really. He’d been to art school. That’s why his music was so unique, because he thought like a painter.” - Mick Rock on Syd Barrett

"ALL GOOD DREAMS IN CRACKS BETWEEN BAD DREAMS"

[bitter69uk]

“Once upon a time, they might’ve burned Siouxsie Sioux at the stake or thrown her in a lake to see if she’d float with rocks tied to her ankles. Today, she’s signed to a recording contract with the hope that she’ll be the most famous witch since mother-in-law Agnes Moorehead made Elizabeth Montgomery’s husband Dick York so miserable in Bewitched … but you won’t find the catchy minimalism of Siouxsie and the Banshees on US radio, so Hyaena tries to adapt the band’s basic doom und gloom to the dictates of modern pop and rock, turning its existential angst into heavy metal / new wave rituals …”

/ From Roy Trakin’s review of Hyaena by Siouxsie and the Banshees in the November 1984 issue of Creem magazine /

Released forty-one years ago today (8 June 1984): Hyaena, the sixth studio album by essential British punk band Siouxsie and the Banshees. Coincidentally, THIS was the first Banshees album I ever bought, and it absolutely entranced me! Hyaena’s biggest hit was the Banshees’ gothic reinterpretation of the Beatles’ “Dear Prudence"; high priestess of punk Siouxsie’s frosty delivery suggests she doesn’t give a damn if that brat Prudence comes out to play or not. (The song reached number three on the UK singles chart, blocked from going further by “Karma Chameleon” by Culture Club!). The rest of the album finds the band at its most experimental, exploring bad-trip psychedelia (think Grace Slick in hell and “Paint it Black”-era Rolling Stones): “Dazzle” (“Skating bullets on angel dust / In the dead sea of fluid mercury / Baby piano cries / Under your heavy index and thumb / Pull some strings / Let them sing!”), “Swimming Horses”, “We Hunger” (“As the rust creeps / Corrosion seeps a rotting seed / Eat me, oh, feed me / With your belching foul breath …”). Scary fun times! Pictured: portrait of Siouxsie by Anton Corbijn from the Hyaena photo-shoot.
