About
The Thorn is an EP released by English rock band Siouxsie & the Banshees in 1984, in between the albums Hyaena and Tinderbox. The release contains four tracks recorded with orchestral instrumentation. "Overground" originally appeared on the Banshees' debut album The Scream and "Placebo Effect" is a track on their second album Join Hands. "Voices" and "Red Over White" were previously released as B-sides. The purpose of the EP was three-fold: Siouxsie stated that she wanted to induct John Valentine Carruthers into the Banshees, to try out some string arrangements, and to simply re-record tracks that had evolved on tour. .
