Teenage Kicks has been on the air for nearly 12 years — but every once in a while, we realize that somehow, a band that's pretty obvious to fit the classic alternative vibe has been overlooked and not featured on Kicks, so we rectify the situation. This week, it's with Siouxsie And The Banshees. Over the course of their 20-year career, they would go on to be one of the foundational bands of the post-punk era, goth pioneers, dance pop legends, and fashionable culture icons. They would influence many, including Thom Yorke, Shirley Manson, Courtney Love, PJ Harvey, and even Jeff Buckley drawing inspiration from them. Siouxsie and the Banshees — this week on Teenage Kicks.
