all 3 albums reissued with bonus tracks.

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.

I generally enjoy quite much Von's ironic, cynical remarks... But I don't always agree with them. So I'll most probably buy the albums whatever he says/writes/thinks/etc. 8)

I'm weak indeed. :oops: :lol:

Gimme a new album and I'll consider not buying the reissues. :innocent:

Just got back from me little trip to the local record store in the Netherlands. No news about any re-releases whatsoever.. this despite the owner being into the Sisters and him always being in touch with what's going on with the old school bands. Fingers crossed!

back to the topic ...

I will definatley get FALAA for Poison door& On the wire
I will probabley buy the other two as there midprice and my CDs have seen better days and it will be nice to have booklets etc

Plus maybe good sales will promt someone to offer :von: a record deal.
As I truley belive it will be a shame if the current sisters do not release something as I belive there have the potential to still be relevent (as Billy Idols recent comeback/realease was)

Indeed.

no good
(decent) albums had a start and an ending. apart perhaps from the 2 bonus tracks on the orignal floodland cd, i think this is also valid for the sisters albums. these additions are a mockery of the concept 'album' and contain songs that can easily be found elsewhere. only point of interest might be the early version of some kind of stranger.
I like these calm little moments before the storm. It reminds me of Beethoven. Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear the growin' and you can hear the insects.

Then consider it an album + extra tracks compilation. So long as they don't reorder the tracks, it does nothing to harm your listening experience. Think of the bonus tracks as DVD Extras - you probably wouldn't (and don't have to) watch a film and then the extras straight after, but it's convenient to have them on a single disk.

Anyone find it odd that the albums have no mention on the Rhino Records website and are not listed on the Amazon U.S. site?

Well, the first number I called at Rhino had no idea what I was talking about but recommended I call "Dr. Rhino" about "future releases" though 30 days from now hardly seems future - more upcoming. Instead I emailed "Dr. Rhino" and will let you know what I hear.

I am a bit wary about the Neverland and SKOS (early). But we'll see. I look forward to being wrong.
