Re: If The Sisters of Mercy made another album, what songs would you want to be on it?
Those of you that get to see the band have a different appreciation of the new songs. To me they are crap because I only hear them as karaoke recordings from a phone. If Adam relented I'd buy that album. On vinyl. I´ve been saying this for a long time. The whole "why would we want a new album,...

Any chance that the official webshop might get some new stock now that the tour is over...?

Re: Germany in January
The discussion about which songs "must stay" or not is one of the reasons why I will always mourn the lack of new recorded output. If these songs existed on a record, we would never "lose" them. They would be there to enjoy, think about and groove to until the end of time, regard...

RIP The Sisters Tours site
It would appear that Andrius Sytas brilliant old tours site (tours.tsom.org) is no longer online. I only found the starting page on Archive Today. Or maybe it´s been down for years, and I just haven´t noticed before? Kind of sad to see it go, either way. I frequented Andrius´ site all the time back ...

Re: 2023-10--29, Santana, Bilbao ES
Is everything slower or is it just me? Caligula, Dr.Jeep and Susanne? The beat and speed seems relaxed. It works. Unless it is my imagination. He sounds "better" than I've heard him, or less worse. Dr Jeep is slower for sure, I've noticed that earlier in the tour as well. And Von sounds r...

Re: Happy Birthday Vision Thing - the Album
VT is such a weird album. I love it, but it is weird. The production borrows heavily from the hard rock bands of the era, but none of those bands made songs like these. Much of it is repetetive to the absurd. Stuff like Dr Jeep and Detonation Blvd aren’t even really songs, they are one riff repeated...

Re: NEW SONGS!
Well, lets do the hypothetical dane: you can record and mix it whatever you want nowadays, you can put vox so loud and so in from of everyother instrument, noise and sound in the mix that it would be audiable enough to carry the lyrics. If you want. Meanwhile it been 32 years since last full studio...

Re: NEW SONGS!
I do however suspect/believe that part of the behind-the-scenes drama leading up to Dylans departure had to do with him being frustrated that the new songs never seemed to get recorded. When I interviewed him (and Band and Dave) in 2019, he was very open with his view that the next logical step was ...

Re: 2023-09-26. Paradiso, Amsterdam NL
Watching Jans excellent videos from last night (thank you so much for sharing them! 🙏🏻) Von sings GREAT all by himself on Summer, his voice sounds strong and distinct. So I just don’t get why they insist on having Ben sing so many of the songs in their entirety. Ben is a great backing vocalist, but ...

Re: Ben Christo and levelling up
Also, there’s the fact that Ben and Dylan go way back, they were friends long before Dylan joined the band. There must be an emotional element of it too (for Ben, I mean).

Re: 2023-09-23 The Roundhouse, London, UK
MrBlonde's rather stunning coverage of I Will Call You appears to give a fairly decisive take on what Eldritch makes of Dylan's future in the band. https://youtu.be/vYsA68Kj1Cs?si=W3KeO157n4qLDA_N As a totally irrelevant aside, I don't think this song works as an opener. It's one of my fave of the ...

Re: 2023-07-23. Death Disco Open Air Festival, Athens GR
This thing with Ben singing basically the entire songs is starting to grate on me. I get it, Von needs some backup vocalwise, but this is beyond. I still want Von to be the lead singer of the Sisters.

Thanks for the vids. That last one, the complete show, has a lovely bass sound to it. ...speaking of bass- no bass player to be found?! Hubs and I were both rather annoyed that much of the sound (including bass and backing vocals) seemed to be pre-recorded... Meh. :evil: :von: They haven’t had a ba...
