1) The Creatures were an eclectic musical act formed in 1981 as a side-project for Siouxsie and the Banshees members Siouxsie and Budgie. With the dissolution of Siouxsie & the Banshees in 1996, The Creatures graduated from an occasional side project to a full-time concern. They disbanded in 2005.
Their music was hailed by Jeff Buckley and PJ Harvey.
2) Creatures are a CA Hardcore band that released a demo in 2007.
Biography
Wild Things era (1981)
The singer Siouxsie and the drummer Budgie had the idea to create the Creatures while recording the Banshees’ Juju album. During one session, they discovered by accident that the association of just the voice and the drums suited to the track
But Not Them. A recording session was organized in the aim to record five songs. This musical project was released under the form of a EP titled Wild Things. Musically, it introduced a much more primitive and drum-driven Banshee sound.
Feast era (1983)
In 1983, between the release of the Banshees albums A Kiss in the Dreamhouse and their live album Nocturne, The Creatures recorded and released their first full length album Feast. The week of its release, the band was on the front cover of the NME and the Melody Maker. It was both a critical and commercial success, reaching number 17 in the UK Albums Chart. To conceive it, the band decided to determine where to record the album by randomly placing a pin on a map of the world.

There are alot of bands out there that have the same, and they don't have separate profiles on here (Take Nico for instance). It's not a case of being narrow-minded (Which I think is an incredulous suggestion).

I haven't heard about the hardcore band, but if there is a band named "Creatures", and not "The Creatures", these should be divided. Black_Eyed_Siou, you are being very narrow-minded...

Considering that most people haven't heard of "the hardcore band", and alot more people have heard of THE Creatures, there isn't really a need to create separate profiles.

yeah,I guess you should report that to the staff-there were some cases when they divided such profiles:>

Well, in the UK at least, Anima Animus, Boomerang and Hai! are not available for general release, only their Bestiary Of album is. That probably has something to do with it. I had to pay £20 to get a copy of Boomerang, but it was worth it, as with all things Siouxsie are! :-D

I agree with number 1 and 3, but yeah Wild Things and Feast are bit overrated!

I don't understand why the top 15 songs are always from Feast and Boomerang and never from their latter albums. Only Exterminating Angel appears there once in a while but that's about it.
