[kj] Regrets fuck banshees

[gingoblin at easynet.co.uk]

And Halloween, Into The Light, Headcut, Monitor, Sin In My Heart... and a 
few others ;-)
Will always be my fave Banshees album, but it was also my first, so maybe 
that has something to do with it. Probably need to have a listen to 
Kaleidoscope too, it's been a while. JuJu and The Scream for me pretty much 
though.
