Ill buy the new 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'll be waiting for soulseek. I wouldn't want to give our fearless leader any satisfaction.

None of them. Sounds like the record company are having a laugh to me. I'm sure I'll pick up the 'bonus tracks' at some point or other. Does the Never Land jobbie sound like the one on Kill The Lights?

Could this possibly be the first time you have bought the girl's stuff within its first week of release? :wink: :D
Youthful enthusiasm - i love it :D

Good on ya Rob!

P.S. Dave, the Never Land on the new one is not the same as on Kill The Lights - it's better!

From the various comments that have been made so far...

I stand by my original view that this is nothing more than Warners trying to rip us off. The only things I don't have on CD, or couldn't transfer to CD, are the demos of SKOS and Never Land.

Now, if/when we get a new album, well, that's an entirely different matter.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

@ Zuma - :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
Thanks a lot for your help again.
However, I'm pretty sure that I'm probably going to wet my pants before I get the CDs. I need to hear the SKOS now. Badly. I'll be checking my inbox every 5 minutes from now on. :wink: :notworthy:

5 minutes have passed more than once and it's still silence in my inbox. :( Just to clarify, the first sentence of my previous post was directed at Zuma only, but all the rest of it was directed at somebody - anybody - who understands how cruel my waiting is. :( I thought I could cope, but now that I've heard the sheer beauty that Never Land is, I just can not wait.
I know I can behave badly from time to time, but come on, there must be somebody out there who's kind enough to forgive me for all my sins and do me this favour. :kiss: :notworthy:

It's too late for me, I've already bought them all.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I second that 100%

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.

3 new CD's in funky digipacks for twenty quid? I don't feel particularly ripped off.

Me neither.

It's disappointing that they weren't done properly, but to be able to walk into a shop and get previously unavailable Sisters material for the first time in 13 years is enough for now.

Look at it from the perspective of a new fan as well, someone who doesn't have the stuff on CD or can't transfer the stuff to CD. This release is for them as much as it is for us old fogeys. :D

Exactamundo. Never bothered to transfer the vinyls. Now I ordered Falaa & VT. My first two proper Sisters CD's. :P (shame there isn't a button in the poll for these two.)
Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.

as you're buying something of which 90% you already own, this is a rip off. one collection with all b-sides or unreleased demos isn't. but that's not what you get, is it?

i agree with mh that this IS interesting for people who have nothing by the sisters. but you wouldn't find them on HL would you.
