Re: Still in love with Still
It's a solid riff in a decent little song, but it suffered from Sisters expectations. It was played at a time when bugger all new was happening and so it didn't really 'land' as well with fans as it might have. If it had dropped as part of the 2022 'album' (sorry, but you know what I mean, the batc...

My money's on Black Planet getting a debut on the US tour. It'll tickle Von's catastrophe.

Re: Still in love with Still
I liked Still. I wasn't a fan of some of the grumpier moments of the Pearson years; even though the songs were obviously great, the general attitude and mood of the band had soured me somewhat. At the time Still seemed to point to a way forward and a shedding of some of the darkness. It's just a sha...

Re: Kai playing Black Planet & RAAHP on Instagram
I remember Ben I think, a few years ago, saying that the band had an arrangement worked out and it was effectively ready to play, but just needed Von to agree to it. Same for Possession, which was on two setlists back in 2014 but dropped right before the gigs started. I believe we even have photos ...

Re: Tim Bricheno interview
Yeah, that was surprising; I'd always thought the official story was that he'd joined too late to actually play on the LP but was credited as a "moral contribution".

Re: sisters xmas list
Ritual is the 1985 demo of the song that became Come Together. Von had written it for the second Sisters LP, and it featured in his projected tracklists. This was back at a time when doing the second LP with the Hussey/Adams lineup was still the intent. It's never been available on any bootleg, but ...

Re: If The Sisters of Mercy made another album, what songs would you want to be on it?
I've been mostly happy to enjoy the new songs at gigs so far, but it's also a fair observation that the option isn't available to everybody, and it would be nice to have the songs on some form of release for listening to whenever I want, sharing playlists with friends, hearing down pubs and clubs, t...

Von mentioned New World Order in an old interview, confirming it is/was a sax-led instrumental.

So got mine earlier today, cranking it for the neighbours right now. So far so good, the Body & Soul side has the correct version of Body Electric, and the Walk Away side adds Long Train, so it was at least compiled by somebody who knows what they're doing. It does feel a bit of a cheap package ...

Re: Gift reissue plus extras
But this is a promotional move. Giving VLR 30 CD's is cheaper than buying half a page in the mag for some add. Those digisleeves costed them around one quid each, so it's 30 pounds, half a page would be what, 500? That's it. In any casé it'd be foolish from them expecting a success. This is a re-re...
