The late 80's saw alternative music begin to infiltrate the mainstream, with such hit making acts as Depeche Mode, The Cure, and Jane's Addiction leaving an impression on the charts, radio, and MTV. It was around this time that one of the genre's founders, Siouxse & the Banshees, celebrated it's tenth anniversary as a band with their tenth studio album overall, 1988's PEEP SHOW. The album follows in the direction of its previous studio album, 86's TINDERBOX (the band had also issued an all covers release, THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, between the two) - in so much that the arrangements were much tighter than their adventurous early 80's work. Highlights included the singles "Peek A Boo," "Killing Jar," and "Last Beat of my Heart," as well as the lesser known cuts "Turn to Stone" and album closer, "Rhapsody."
Recorded at Marcus Music, London, England between January to March 1988.
Siouxsie & The Banshees: Siouxsie Sioux (vocals); Jon Klein (guitar); Martin Martin McCarrick (cello, accordion, keyboards); Steven Severin (bass); Budgie (drums, percussion, harmonica).

Peepshow Music Review
Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   One of Sioux's best
I mirror the sentiment of the reviewer who said that Peepshow was one of the best albums to come out in 1988.
Siouxsie's voice was in top form and better than ever. The songs are darkly ethereal and delve into new areas for the band. This album is still ahead of its time almost twenty years later.
10 blazing stars!

The Original Queen of Goth
Peep Show is a briliant album, both musically and artistically. Siousie Sioux writting is way ahead of it's time when the album was released and it sets the stage for other female song writters. The dark moodiness of the album touches you heart in unexplainable ways. It's this dark appeal and stylism the makes her the original queen of goth.

This cd for me is one of the best records that came out of 1988. Songs like scarecrow,rhapsody,killing jar & the last beat of my heart are just songs that simply move me with all the beauty that Siouxsie & the Banshees can bring to ones ear & heart.

This album helped cement that image but this is more than that - it's an inventive and enjoyable record. It's almost worth getting just for 'Peek-a-boo' and 'Every Beat of My Heart'. One of their best albums.

Peep Show fizzles but still intrigues
If much of their previous work was "fireworks", this album is more like a firecracker. The album is inconsistent and lacks bite and strong material, except for Rhapsody, Ornaments Of Gold, Peep Show, and the gorgeous Last Beat of My Heart.
