Siouxsie and the Banshees - Twice Upon A Time - The Singles

Siouxsie and the Banshees have always been there in the background for me as historical and musical contemporaries of crucial acts like the Cure and the Cocteau Twins, but I've never really listened to them. This set is, I think, a best-of tracing the second half (although it may be slightly more than half) of their career; based on it, I think I can say that I like the band's sound but the songs themselves aren't lighting any rockets beneath me.
