Music reviews of Superstition

Music Review: Some rough spots but brilliant anyway
Rating: 4 Stars

People keep on complaining that this album is "commercial" and "generic". C'mon guys, this isn't the Black Eyed Peas, this is Siouxsie and the Banshees, so it isn't a generic pop album. Even though I despise "Silly Thing", this is a great album

1. "Kiss Them for Me"- Even though I tire of this song very easily (It's played on the radio a lot) this is a brilliant change of pace, with an insatantly danceable backdrop and Eastern instrumentation. 8/10

2. "Fear (Of the Unknown)"- Who cares if this is one of the most generic-sounding tracks on the album, it's as fun as hell and terribly infectious. Just stay far, FAR away from the remixed single version, it's just awful. 9/10

3. "Cry"- I guess this song is pretty catchy, but I can't seem to get into it. Siouxsie Sioux sings great on it, but it's just one of the weaker songs on the album. 5/10

4. "Drifter"- Not only is this the greatest song on here, but it is one of the Banshees' best songs period. It took me a while to get into it, but then I realized its shimmering, icy beauty and now I can't get enough of it. The synth-strings are the icing on the cake. 10/10

5. "Little Sister"- One of the darker songs on the album, this is quite an ambient number. The ethereal synths give it a chilly feel, and Sioux sings in a soothing, beautiful voice. 10/10

6. "Shadowtime"- This is a more commercial tune in the Banshees' career, but it still has that kick, with its gentle synthesizers and overall spacey feel. I have no idea what it's about though. 7/10

7. "Silly Thing"- God, I hate this song. Even though tracks like "Fear" manage to pull off the dancey feel quite well, "Silly Thing" just sounds childish and passe. 2/10

8. "Got To Get Up"- A harder-edged track, I actually like this song a lot. Some of the synths sound vaguely Asian, and the song on a whole gives off an easy-going feel. Extremely enjoyable. 9/10

9. "Silver Waterfalls"- Second only to "Drifter" as the best song on the album, this is a fun, poppy little song about "ghostly buffalo" and "Indian sunrise". The sitar-like instruments in the song give off a mystical feel, and the exotic percussion adds to that. Truly sublime. 10/10

10. "Softly"- I would like this song a lot better if it were about 2 minutes shorter and had at least some percussion, but this is a dreamy, soothing song perfect for just contemplating some things in your life. 7/10

11. "The Ghost In You"- This closes the album on a triumphant note, and the title truly fits. This is a somber, somber song that slowy unfolds and builds up to a dramatic finish. The music and Sioux sound haunted and combined create an irresistable, meloncholy song. 10/10

For all of you fans, give "Superstition" a chance and just realize how Siouxsie and the Banshees were great because they did things that weren't expected of them. You are welcome to skip "Silly Thing" though.
