Siouxsie Sioux-Curated Collection of Classic Tracks and Rarities Remastered at Abbey Road Studios and Cut at Half-Speed by Engineer Miles Showell
All Souls is a collection of Siouxsie and The Banshees tracks personally curated by Siouxsie Sioux to reflect the supernatural and more macabre side of their music. All Souls combines classic tracks and rarities, building into an “autumnal celebration” described by Siouxsie as “a seasonal selection for you to enjoy.” The ever influential figureheads of the punk and new wave scenes are newly celebrated by this anthology, which underlines their unique and wide-ranging musical personality.
It opens with 1982’s “Fireworks,” one of three memorable singles featured in the new collection along with 1981’s “Spellbound” (both of these Top 30 UK hits) and “Peek-A-Boo,” the 1988 track that became Siouxsie and the Banshees’ final UK Top 20 entry. “Spellbound” was recently featured as the closing music for the fourth season of Stranger Things. “Halloween,” a highlight of the band’s classic Juju album of 1981, is also included, as are more idiosyncratic tracks such as “El Dia De Los Muertos” (a B-side from another 1988 single, “The Last Beat Of My Heart”); “Something Wicked (This Way Comes)” from the single release of “The Killing Jar,” again from 1988; and “Supernatural Thing” from 1981’s “Arabian Knights” single. All of these tracks are making their first appearance on vinyl in decades.
The ten tracks on the album have all been remastered at Abbey Road studios, with Siouxsie overseeing the process, and cut at half-speed by engineer Miles Showell on 180g vinyl. It features new, unique artwork, directed by Siouxsie, featuring a marigold, which is the symbolic flower of the Mexican Day of the Dead/All Souls Day festivities.
