Everyone's favorite sisters have scheduled 6 live shows in November - the first since 2006, I think. Unfortunately all shows will be at the House of Blues, but still - The Sisters of Mercy?! Are you kidding?!?! In the words of my roommate, "Do you think this means Andrew will wear Mickey Mouse ears?! Oh, lordy lordy lordy... I think this is one of those signs the world is ending.. Like soon....
Ofra Haza's Haunting vocals wind in and out of this song. If I could know someone with this talent, Know them personally. I might be admitted entrance to the next level of consciousness when passing through this way again.
i need filters- i really do.but aren't filters just a euphemism for masks which, in turn, is a euphemism for hiding who we really are lest we make a blunder and offend someone we care about?My wife told me once that she keeps certain aspects of her personality hidden. She said she has tastes and proclivities and interests that I would be very interested in but she keeps those parts tucked away ...
I do better with nostalgia when I can pinpoint exactly *why* I became thrilled with a song in the first place. In the case of Sisters of Mercy, it wasn't really that Nick and Pete Bell (East Lansing's resident goth brothers and heirs to the Bell's Greek Pizza throne) were the seniors in high school telling me what was cool and what was not... I mean, perhaps that was why I got to listen to thi...

Anna is grooving to "Lucretia My Reflection" by the Sisters of Mercy, which hereby makes her Goth. I'm not saying the picture below will be her new style, I'm just saying ...That is all.(BTW, it's probably coincidental, but the girl on the left looks a LOT like Helen.)

Maybe Goth Thursday? Can we make a glam Tuesday?I was sorting through some old vinyl and found a 12" of Temple of Love (Extended Version), with Heartland and Gimme Shelter on the B-side. Did you know that this apparently is NOT available digitally? Found the 92 version, which is sped up a bit (I think) and the soaring female vocals are off-putting to my ears:Nice cover of Gimme Shelter (mayb...

In a previous post I mentioned the book on the post-punk era. A band that started on the tail end of it was The Sisters of Mercy.Honestly I consider them goth. AND I think that is a good thing. I am not entirely sure why goth is such an ugly word nowadays. Anyone from the early to mid 80s that had any sort of prominence are now denouncing that tag like a DNA stained dress. Sure you can cri...
