Peepshow is the ninth studio album by the English rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees, released in the United Kingdom on 5 September 1988 by Polydor Records. It was their first record as a quintet. With the arrival of multi-instrumentalist Martin McCarrick and guitarist Jon Klein, the group recorded a multifaceted album with a variety of influences. Peepshow included three singles "Peek-a-Boo", "The Killing Jar" and "The Last Beat of My Heart". Upon release, the album was critically acclaimed: praise centred around the unpredictability of the orchestrations and new nuances in Siouxsie Sioux's voice. The record was a commercial success, peaking at No. 20 in the UK, and No. 68 on the US Billboard 200 chart in the week of 3 December 1988. It spent a total of 20 weeks on that chart. "Peek-a-Boo" became the band's first American hit and reached number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Peek-a-Boo" also reached number one on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart and "the Killing Jar" got the number two spot. It is the subject of the 2018 book Peepshow by Samantha Bennett, part of the 33⅓ series.
