The Dark Reign of Gothic Rock re-release?

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 really like the book. :oops:

Does this mean I have to buy this edition as well? Is it updated or such?

Someday, someone's going to write a book that gives the whole UK Decay/Sex Gang Children/Southern Death Cult wing their proper due credit.

This isn't it.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I got it a while back - the guy is pretty much up to speed with the Cure releases, but on the rest he can be a bit patchy. And I suppose the writing style isn't really my cup of tea.

The whiteface isn't white enough and it stops at her chin. Never heard of blending girl?

She also appears to be wearing a black kagoule. :?:
