"Feast" is the first album to be released by British duo The Creatures. It was number 17 in the U.K charts [ [http://thebansheesandothercreatures.co.uk/feast.htm Feast album chart position] ] and The "Miss The Girl" single was number 21. [ [http://thebansheesandothercreatures.co.uk/feastsingles.htm MIss the girl chart position] ]

Feast was originally released in may 1983, two years after the "Wild Things" ep. It was entirely remastered in 1997 and re-reissued as part of the A Bestiary Of compilation.

Record Mirror praised the album by the note of 4/5 and Paul Prayag wrote "Siouxsie and Budgie are wondering deeper and deeper into a jungle that looks like having no easily definable boundaries".

Several songs are about their experiences on that island, including: "Inoa'Ole", "Gecko", "Festival of Colours" and "A Strutting Rooster". "Miss The Girl" is a combination of the love affair and a crash car : it's inspired by the book "Crash" by J.G. Ballard.
