This is the first album from Siouxsie and co. It is harsh and raw, a great punk album different from their later "goth" stuff. It opens with an eerie instrumental and then goes into the fast bass of Jigsaw Feeling. The cover of the Beatles' Helter Skelter is one of the best versions I've ever heard. The musical and lyrical content of the album is just superb. Switch is probably the best song on the album, though there isn't a bad one in the lot. I just can't get enough of this album.
Enjoy.
