What a track,never heard this before
As one of the entries in the comments section said..if this track was performed by whoever now it would blow the roof off any venue .

Astonishing raw sound; brilliant .

@BMR...I was possibly wrong about 'Movement' being just as good as anything JD produced

Altho technically this is Warsaw I think.....;)

On the Short Circuit - Live at the Electric Circus album iirc

Siouxsie and Marc.
I love Siouxsie and for a period from 1980 onwards thought she was beautiful.
Yet the pictures from 76 to 79 that show up, she is always the ugly duckling…..

Mate...I know you love Siouxsie.
And there is only a very very smal % of Bluemooners who properly understand your Username.
I do.
When I first saw the Creatures on Totp I was Astounded.
It was so exciting.A work of Art... Gothic Punk art ,but it was more than that
It was cultural, Real, exotic,Sexy,Dangerous, invititing.aggressive,flamboyant... ....my mum didn't like it,I know
I was totally stunned.Still to this day I cannot describe how amazing that performance was.......

I couldn't believe that Siouxsie would just break away and do her own thing ....but I was young,and in later years I realised Talented people do it all the time.
Change.

When the Wild Things EP came out, I desperately wanted a copy of the Double Gatefold limited edition and my mum worked near HMV. I had to beg her the night before to nip out during her lunch break and buy it.
I got back from work and she wasn’t happy about the front cover (nor the inside cover to be honest) and vowed not to buy another record for me as a result lol
