Ben Christos new band.

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Why you think he's not doing this with TSOM? After all and according to AE, TSOM are recording new songs, they have enough songs for two albums, maybe one or seventy-five were written or co~written by Ben.

After Night by Night, after style of his playing at the beggining when he've joined TSOM, this type of music shouldn't be surprise at all. I'd say, and that's natural, he developed, improved his music style, it's not promitive, so angular.
Notheless, it's not my cup of tea.

Simple emo-goth-poprock.
HIM, Zeromancer and Poisonblack did it way before them, and much more interesting.
A big 'meh' on this one.

I still haven't clicked, but I still hope Ben has fun with it. I guess he wouldn't be doing it if he didn't enjoy it.
Cheers.

Von has the same PR advisor as Trump. He actually has more songs than anyone. Anyone ever. It's going to be great, really great. Ben knew what he was getting into.
