“One of the band’s masterworks, Juju sees Siouxsie and the Banshees operating in a squalid wall of sound dominated by tribal drums, swirling and piercing guitars, and Siouxsie Sioux’s fractured art-attack vocals. Siouxsie and company took things to an entirely new level of darkness on Juju, with the singer taking delight in sinister wordplay, creeping out listeners , and inspiring her bandmates to push their rhythmic witches brew to poisonous levels of toxicity.” - Tim DiGravina, AllMusic
