next wave of Siouxsie reissues

[clarence]

I was told that Nocturne, Kiss In The Dreamhouse, Hyaena & Tinderbox are coming out possibly this spring or summer with extras. Can anyone confirm or have any details?

That was the last that I heard according to Steve Severin. Though, on his msg board there has been quite a bit of talk about Nocturne not being remastered due to the fact that the idiot record company, Universal didn't think that it merited a 2 disc set. Supposedly, Steve was going thru the tapes of the 2 nites that were recorded and was possibly going to release both nites or a nice combination of the 2. I guess when the record exec's passed on the idea, Nocturne was taken off the list. For some reason, the Banshees have not had a lot of luck with Universal and getting their stuff remastered. There also was to be a dvd of all the promo videos. Universal wanted to release it last Christmas before a lot of it could be remastered. That may come at some point.

Nocturne was 79 mins + originally anyway. If it had been remastered, they would not have been able to include anything new! The File 2 track 7" of outtakes should obviosuly be included. Considering Juju is one of their most popular albums and a 2CD set was cancelled for that, I'm really not surprised. Then again, they remastered the audio for the DVD re-issue? They better hurry up, it's two years since batch one on May 1st and Siouxsie is touring and has a third solo single out next month...
