Siouxsie and the Banshees' Tinderbox is pressed here on 180-gram vinyl, a dark, shimmering 1986 album that remains one of the band's most cohesive statements.
Their seventh studio album was the first full-length made with guitarist John Valentine Carruthers, and its first sessions took place at Hansa in Berlin, the studio famous for its view of the Wall. The band spent months rehearsing these songs before recording, aiming to present them on stage as a complete work, and the record carries that sense of a single, unbroken mood. Lead single "Cities in Dust" was the only song recorded entirely in London.
"Cities in Dust" is the gateway, a thrilling, danceable rush inspired by the ruins of Pompeii, with Siouxsie's voice slicing through Budgie's restless drumming. "Candyman" pairs a glittering hook with a deeply unsettling subject, while "92 Degrees" opens with a sample from the 1953 film It Came from Outer Space and slowly builds oppressive heat. "This Unrest" drifts into colder, stranger territory.
Atmospheric without ever losing its pulse, Tinderbox has been cited as an inspiration by a number of alternative musicians who followed. On heavyweight vinyl, its layered guitars and booming low end feel properly enveloping, so turn the lights down and let it wrap around the room.
