A Kiss in the Dreamhouse is the fifth studio album released by Siouxsie and the Banshees and was issued by Polydor Records in the UK in 1982: it was reissued remastered and expanded in 2009.
The UK music press was unanimous in their praise for the album on its release.
Richard Cook in NME wrote: "'A Kiss In The Dreamhouse' is a feat of imagination scarcely ever recorded. It's breathtaking. Somehow, a bold assurance of intention has met with a hunger for experimenting with sound to expand an already formidable group of songs into pure, open-minded ambiguity. The flesh of the song will balloon out or contort into unimaginable patterns; indecipherable echoes volley between the walls of the recording; glassy, splintered tones pierce the luxuriant sheen of the mix. Repeated listens trick the sense of balance; tremendous risks are taken." Cook then finished his review by this sentence: "I promise. This music will take your breath away."
Steve Sutherland in Melody Maker also welcomed the new musical direction: "The Banshees achieve an awesome, effective new pop without so much as a theory or qualm. "Dreamhouse" is an intoxicating achievement."
In 2007, Mojo magazine rated it as the best album of year 1982.
Allmusic described the first single "Slowdive" as "a violin-colored dance beat number" with "a catchy melodic hook".
Several bands covered and sampled songs from this album. LCD Soundsystem made a cover of "Slowdive" for the b-side of their single Disco Infiltrator: it was also included on their Introns compilation in 2006. The Beta Band sampled the Nocturne live version of "Painted Bird" on their track "Liquid Bird" from the Heroes to Zeros album.
