U.S. Retrace is a compilation album by British act the Creatures, consisting of Siouxsie Sioux and musician Budgie formerly of Siouxsie and the Banshees It collected out-of-print material from several CD singles as well as the 1998 Eraser Cut EP.

"All She Could Ask For" first appeared on promotional cassettes of Anima Animus as the closing track of the album, but was not included in the final track listing when the record was released. The band, however, decided to open all of their 1999 concerts by performing this atmospheric number.

U.S. Retrace was only intended as a U.S. CD release,[1] as Instinct Records had not made any CD single available in that country. The title is an anagram of the group's name.

U.S. Retrace is quite a self-explanatory release from the Creatures, as Siouxsie and Budgie have repackaged the Eraser Cut EP and some otherwise hard-to-find remixes for the American market. So what you have here is some fine industrial goth music with an emphasis on percussion that will make any fan of the genre happy.
