THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!

I love it and cannot wait until the new album! When does it come out?

Sioux is hotter than ever -- not bad for being 50!

2007 is the best year of the 00's!

mid september if I'm not mistaken

Thanks for sharing that!! I'm looking forward to hearing more!

I love it. Do you have any additional information on the album?

This what I could get online:

Siouxsie's solo album, Mantaray, will be released on 9.10.07 (9.18.07 USA). It will be preceded by a single entitled Into a Swan about a month earlier (digitally, 8.13.07 | CD, 7", etc., 8.27.07).

Tracklisting for the album is as follows....

Into a Swan
About To Happen
Here Comes That Day
Loveless
If It Doesn't Kill You
One Mile Below
Drone Zone
Sea of Tranquility
They Follow You
Heaven and Alchemy


Also this seems to be the cover:

I think it's hot. It's easily the best looking video by Siouxsie ever taking into account Banshees and Creatures clips.

I hear the Budgie is definitely NOT on the new album and possibly out of Sioux's life as well.

Wow. Great song and great video. She proves that even at the age of 50 you can create something exiting. I couldn´t help thinking about Kate Bush´s ridiculous "King of the Mountain" Video while I watched this. I wish she had put a little more effort in her comeback. This is how it could have looked like.

they are no more a couple?

WOWWWWW!

She is still so incredible...she's not aged hardly at all, but has matured so much. Thanks for posting this!

MikeMatronik said:

That is the current rumor. Fans are also reading into the "Into A Swan" lyrics thinking they might mean that she is free from him. Or coming out of the closet. Or both.

sextonseven said:

That reminds me of the fact you once mentioned that Siouxsie and Budgie were "beards".

MikeMatronik said:

I never mentioned that, I thought you did.

Someone did (Superspaceboy?) and I said that I knew Sioux was at least bi, but I didn't know Budgie's deal.

sextonseven said:

my memory sucks sometimes!

I remember that I didn't know the meaning of "beards" in the way it was used. I think you were the one that explained me.

But you were for sure on the thread.

MikeMatronik said:

I do remember explaining the term "beard".

I post on every Siouxsie thread.

sextonseven said:

Shame Steven is not one! He was the hot one of the banshees

OMG...that was very good and very un-Creature like. More like old school siouxsie. Thanks that was great and I look forward to the new one.

sextonseven said:

SATB had like the worst video cannon ever. Only a few were good. I agree this video is HOT!

No Budgie = Sad Spaceboy!!!! Any info on this? I suppose that would be the reason the album sounds like it does.

superspaceboy said:

One of the Siouxsie fan sites posted a list of musicians performing on the album and Budgie's name was noticeably absent. I'll try to find a link.

Budgie's absence in Siouxsie's personal life is still pure speculation right now.

sextonseven said:

I could see his absense from anything musically related to her esp if he wanted to be on it and she didn't want him to be leading to a separation. I hope that it's not the case and that if she didn't want his input, he'd be ok with that direction of music she wanted to go in. But still, to NOT have him on there even for percussion or directing the drums to be a little off putting.

superspaceboy said:

The general consensus among fans is that Hai was Budgie's album. I wonder if that had anything to do with Sioux going solo.

And you're so right about Banshees videos being generally bad--just like Prince. My two favorite artists ever make crappy videos.

Snippets of some of the other songs can be heard on the W14 site: http://www.w14music.com/

sextonseven said:

THANKS AGAIN -- the snippets sound awesome and it is great to read a bit about the album. (I also noticed Alison Moyet is working on a new release for the label!) I'm looking forward to having both!!!

sextonseven said:

Help me out, where on the site can I hear the clips?! Somehow I'm not seeing them!

CandaceS said:

The snippets start automatically playing once you enter the site. There should be a music player in the upper left corner which you can use to adjust volume, forward to the next track, etc.

sextonseven said:

OK, I'd swear that page looked different the other day! Nevermind, I got to hear them now, thanks again. I'll be all over that CD when it's released.

Checking out the Waterboys snippets now...
