"Love Crime" is a song by Siouxsie. Her first release in eight years,[1] it was featured in the finale of the TV series Hannibal, broadcast in August 2015.
Series creator Bryan Fuller, who had contacted her in November 2014,[2] described the song (composed by Siouxsie with Brian Reitzell) as "epic".[3] Reitzell had previously worked for Siouxsie in 2006 for the Marie Antoinette soundtrack when he re-orchestrated the introduction of Siouxsie and the Banshees's debut single "Hong Kong Garden" with strings players for Sofia Coppola's film.
