The playlist from tonight’s edition of “Dark Wave” — the Sunday night “darker side of alternative” show on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave — featured Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, The sisters of Mercy, Giorgio Moroder, Yazoo, Ministry, The Normal, The House of Love and much more.

Welcome to the Week in Rock, where we round up all of the headlines posted on this site over the past week. This edition includes items about INXS, Depeche Mode, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, Johnny Marr, Alison Moyet, The Cure, Public Image Ltd., The Dream Syndicate, Franke Goes to Hollywood, The Fixx and more.

Last night at the famed Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland, producers and musicians Nile Rodgers and Mark Ronson enlisted Johnny Marr and Alison Moyet, who joined the Rodgers-led Chic on stage to perform Ronson’s arrangement of The Smiths’ “Stop Me If You Think You’ve Heard This One Before.”

Wax Trax!-era industrial rockers My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult will embark on a seven-week tour of the U.K. this fall to mark their 25th anniversary, a trek dubbed Back From Beyond! that also will find the group performing tracks off the upcoming debut from Bomb Gang Girlz, Thrill Kill Kult’s long-running group of backing singers.

INXS’ 1987 album ‘Kick’ sold 6 million copies and spawned four Top 10 singles in the U.S., turning the Aussie rockers into global superstars. Now, 25 years later, the band this fall will release an expanded edition of the album featuring three CDs and a DVD packed with remixes, demos, “unheard tracks” and a documentary.

Soulsavers this week released a music video for “Take Me Back Home” off the group’s current album The Light the Dead See, which features Depeche Mode frontman Dave Gahan on lead vocals. Neither Gahan nor the Soulsavers are in the High 5 Collective-directed clip, which fits the song’s melancholy mood quite well.

The Cure’s set at Spain’s Bilbao BBK Live got off to a rocky start tonight — but was all the more memorable for it. As the band’s crew worked on keyboard problems, Robert Smith took the stage by himself and treated the crowd to a rare solo-acoustic set , performing “Three Imaginary Boys,” “Fire in Cairo” and “Boys Don’t Cry.”
