Here you hear the difference between a singer and a crooner ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Xk_5DpsRxI IZ. It doesn't look like he is lip syncing on the Top Of The Pops performance, but the music is definitely all coming from a backing tape. But the vocals look and sound live. I guess that is Te...

Cool! How was the show? When and where?

I love Bowie's "Outside", it's one of my favorite albums ever. Definitely one of my desert island discs! I really love the fusion of rock, electronics and jazz on it. I doubt Bowie is bothered by Eldritch's criticism, he's in a totally different league... and Bowie has released about 7 or ...

Glad you found it interesting Obviousman and Million Voices! Korea is a really fascinating place with a complex history. I always got the impression that Eldritch seriously studied the cold war and military/political matters... so I thought that these North Korean photos were vaguely appropriate for...

Check the following link, it contains comments and many photos taken by a Russian who recently visited North Korea. Shows the daily life and living conditions of the general populance. Maybe interesting for some of you. http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:8Dcxa3JBWAMJ:www.mrlevek.co...

If they play in Japan the show should be sold out, they have a lot of fans over here. I really hope they can make it as I have never seen them live before!

You rock. Thanks! I'll get to those here in a bit; I've put Flametracer back on again. I think this one's going to be a keeper. I love the bass on it. Is he using a fretless? I don't know what kind of guitars he used... I just know he used a huge array of different effects pedals! Make sure you che...

I'd never heard of Loop, Main or Hair & Skin before. I'm listening to Flametracer now for the first time. I'm liking it. Alot. Thanks for turning me on to this! :notworthy: Some great LOOP tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIKS1tFzvr8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH3fds8x4AY http://www.y...

Ah, some nice gear or what! :notworthy: That R3 is also nice, Sam has it on loan for a while. The Oberheim, me envious! I'd love a synthi or the like, but alas, they are a tad steep in price ;) Sam has a K2000 as well, the Kurzweil racksynth, it is very nice but he uses it only sporadically. And it...

Not as much as I want to have ;) Mostly softsynths as you can see, my only 'real' synth is the Roland XP50, 20 years of age now and becoming vintage as we speak :D The Folktek is a follie which is highly enjoyable. What music do you make? And enjoying music is the most important; releasing cd's is ...

Some great MAIN tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3js62qOzVw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYCS6XAqHYQ Some great HAIR AND SKIN TRADING COMPANY tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGCJrR9z4ow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFn4-87Zejo Also, check out the album Pure by the band GODFLESH, Ro...

Hello.
I like you already.

Thanks! LOOP were such a great band weren't they? My favorite album of theirs is A Gilded Eternity. I also like the first releases by MAIN, the band Robert Hampson formed when he dissolved LOOP.

Hi Izzy HaveMercy, what equipment do you use to make your music? IZ: - Roland XP50 - Folktek Micro Garden - Cubase 5.5.2 onna MacbookPro 15inch - Novation SL 49 MKII - NI Komplete 5 (Absynth, FM8,...) - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold Edition - ZOOM H2 field recorder - Roland SPDs drum computer/sampl...

Thanks mh. Pity it never worked out, Mute and the Sisters would have been a perfect combination.

Hi Izzy HaveMercy, what equipment do you use to make your music?

Hi. I've noticed a few comments on these forums that seem to infer that The Sisters Of Mercy were in negotiations to release the new album on MUTE RECORDS (Daniel Miller's label) but then for some reason it never happened. I would have thought that MUTE would be the perfect home for the Sisters, the...

Looks like Roger Dean artwork, he used to do the artwork for Yes albums in the 70's.

Most folks, I think, find out through word of mouth.

At my school there were absolutely no goths... everyone listened to Guns 'n Roses, Def Leppard and Joe Satriani.

One of my favorite Yello songs is Desire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zAMJp9roqU I seriously think The Sisters Of Mercy should cover this song, the lyrics and music would suit Eldritch perfectly... "the sun, blowing the moon away... lights me up for one more day... the streets are naked, in...

I got into the Sisters purely by chance. I was in a public library that loaned out CDs as well as books. I saw the Vision Thing CD sitting on a shelf and the cover intrigued me. I had never heard of The Sisters Of Mercy but I thought I'd take a chance on it because the cover looked cool.

By the way, I noticed you have Skinny Puppy for your avatar. Cevin Key actually wanted Yello to produce the Skinny Puppy album The Process but unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) it never happened! It would have been an insane combination... Now that would have been something else indeed. Another ...

The Race and Oh Yeah are great songs, but I never really got interested in them beyond those. Well if you liked those songs then check out Yello's albums Stella, One Second and Flag. There's some amazing tracks on them if you give them a chance. By the way, I noticed you have Skinny Puppy for your ...

Yeah, Yello are an acquired taste. I love them but I can understand why many people don't... Me too. I understand that they haven't heard The rhythm divine on a speaker system able to dig deep enougth and play strong enougth without loads of distortion. Yes the One Second album is fantastic, so man...

Hey, thank you so much Being645!

See what Lemmy gets up to when he's not doing Motorhead...
