Famous for her wild singing in Siouxsie & The Banshees, Siouxsie steps out on her 2007 Decca solo CD Mantaray. Featuring guitarist / producer Steve Evans and a tight backing band, Mantaray is a sizzling glam-rock set that showcases Siouxsie’s atmospheric post-punk vocal sound. Filled with heady electronica, crunching electric guitars and swirling modern psychedelia / cabaret sounds, Mantaray is portentous stuff but like a moth to a flame you keep coming back to Siouxsie’s intriguing, hypnotic presence. www.siouxsiemantaray.com
