Their last four studio albums are reissued in remastered version with bonus tracks. They are available at amazon.co.uk. "Peepshow" (1988) is an album with a rich palette of sounds including cello, harmonica and accordeon. It had a five star review in Q magazine and was also praised in Spin magazine. Peepshow has also been cited by the singers of Arcade Fire, Decemberists and Bloc Party. "The Rapture" (1995) is their last album that captured the band almost live. It includes a great swansong "Forever". "Superstition" (1991) is their poppiest album with their classic single "Kiss them for me" and the moving ballad "The Ghost in You". It featured Talvin Singh on percussion (who would later be Bjork's musical director on "Debut") "Through The Looking Glass" (1987) is their cover album like Bowie's "Pin Ups". Bowie who was convinced by the result, invited them in 1987 as special guests in Anaheim. http://www.amazon.co.uk/...ywords=peepshow+siouxsie

Not sure what 'almost live' means, but it's true, 'Forever' is a great song. It should have got a wider audience than just the fans who bought that final album. But it didn't get released as a single!? The title track however is also worth a mention. You don't make a song over eleven minutes long unless you've got something decent.
