The Scream is the debut studio album by British rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees, released on 13 November 1978 by Polydor Records. The album is considered a landmark recording: its innovative combination of angular and serrated guitar with a bass-led rhythm and machine-like drums played mostly on toms, made it a pioneering work of the post-punk genre.
The Scream was met with widespread acclaim and was hailed by critics as an original musical development in rock music. It strongly influenced post-punk, noise rock and alternative rock movements of the late 1970s and the 1980s and rock guitar playing in general.
