Music like The Ghost of Lemora

Screaming Banshee Aircrew were an English rock band originating from York, England.

Formed in April 2001 by Nick Daniel and Ed Tuke, starting out as a four-piece alternative/deathrock/post-punk band, they made their debut performance featuring a mixture of their own material and Rocky Horror covers on 16 November 2001 at The Winning Post, York for the Deviation clubnight. Their initial sound varied from tongue in cheek humour and rockabilly to sombre ballads and dancefloor stompers, influences include bands such as The March Violets, The Horatii, The Cramps, The Cure, Bauhaus, David Bowie and New Model Army.

The band quickly gained a reputation as an energetic live act and were to gather a fanbase across the UK, especially within the Gothic Rock circuit (see Goth subculture), during this time with an act that featured DAT tape backing, guitars and interwoven male and female lead vocals.
