Cities In Dust is one of Siouxsie and the Banshees’ most iconic tracks, released in 1985 as part of their album *Tinderbox*. The song reflects on the destruction of Pompeii, using it as a metaphor for emotional and societal decay. The music video, directed by Tim Pope, complements the apocalyptic theme with haunting visuals of volcanic devastation. This track helped the band make a significant impact in both the post-punk and alternative rock scenes during the 1980s.
