Siouxsie and the Banshees Mega Compilation Set On The Way

According to Slicing Up Eyeballs, Steven Severin, bassist of the legendary British rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees, is putting together an epic 20-disc box set “that is intended to include all 11 of the band’s studio albums, plus singles, non-BBC live recordings and various TV appearances.”

Severin has been posting occasional quips hinting at the collection for the past couple months, including posting a YouTube video of a 1981 performance of “Regal Zone” and commenting “‘Shees Mega Box back on the agenda. 20 discs! Including a DVD of this bastard show. Excited but a LOT of work to be done diving for unknown pearls.”

Despite fan desire to see a band reunion to promote the upcoming collection though, Severin stated, “There is more liklihood of Peter Hook touring a Banshees tribute band than there is of seeing the real thing tread the boards again. It’s over. Done. Dusted.”
