Siouxie and the Banshees remain one of the most enduring acts to emerge from the London punk scene - even 14 albums after their formation. Captured at London's Shepherds Bush Empire on 10th July 2002, this concert film includes some of the best tracks from their past albums as well as an incendiary cover of the Beatles' 'Blue Jay Way'.
Spontaneous drum-duet improvisations recorded Monday 19 August 2003 - Gok Sound Studio Tokyo, Japan.
Originally released in 1983 "Nocturne" was remastered in 2006 and released on DVD. This captures Siouxsie And The Banshees at the height of their "goth" period. It also features Cure frontman Robert Smith on guitar. If you liked the albums "Juju", "Hyaena", and "A Kiss In The Dreamhouse" you will love this. It was filmed at Royal Albert Hall.
