Who would like to see record with The Sisters?

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.

Ok, so who's going to make the potentially libellous allusions to Floodland first? :lol:

I'd like to see him record with a producer, engineer and a decent band. Could you imagine what that might sound like??

Does 2 constitute ALL? Suppose it does if that's all there's been. I have to stress the word 'Decent' & 'Band' - Vision Thingy doesn't fit the bill

There's no "band" on Floodland either if you want to go down that route.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

Oh, agreed: The Corrs have about as much to do with 'folk music', as I have to do with the political situation in Peru.

I actually do like some folky stuff, though I'm not an expert by any means.

But as I said, the videos would look nice.

They only use folk/Irish music as a gimmick. Most annoying.
If only they could shut the f**k up, just stand there and look good. :urff: :twisted:

...It's just that they already know the chords and lyrics which would save some rehearsal time.

are you talking about the sisters or nouvelle...

actually, i quite like covers most of the time... My feeling is that if it is a good song, it will hold up no matter who trys to butcher it. unless it's some piece of s**t american idol band trying to cover a clash song...

that reminds me.. there was a song that Big Black did way back when and I alway thought it sounded like big black doing a cover of a song the sisters had covered, only they covered the sisters version..... I'll continue to claim that it's true, though i know it isn't.

Once heard someone say that they reckoned "El Dopa" was the original "Ghost Rider".... hey ho??!!
