The Look OF Eldritch

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.

Thanks Bismark. Thats the shot. Thats the pic that inspired me to rip the sleeves off half of my tee shirts!

Also, inspired by this thread I did my "what era AE shall I dress up as today?" game. This is wear I pick my outfit based on an eldritch era.
I picked 86. short leather jacket, silly hat, with a shirt hinting at floodland (F*ck me and...). Its sad, but it keeps me happy.
My other one is "how much like a bad Carl McCoy look alike can i get away with without actually covering myself in flower?"
Nationalise the f**king lot.

Being a 'ProgRocker' from the olden days (Yes @ the Famous Glasgow Apollo c.1975, anyone else?) I can attest to the fact that what This Sisters Of Mercy use is smoke and not dry ice. Harrumph! :twisted:

I think the one on the first page of the off. site is good, he looks like he means the whole darn thing
Not as good as Motorhead, but better than The Birthday Party, which makes us pretty damn good.

If i look at all these pics i may conclude, with some exceptions, he looks a lot like Bowie. A lot.

he should never have cut his hair in the early 90s, he should have kept it as long as he had it!

I have to say my fave look for the industrial groove machine was when I saw them doing exille on euphoria. Groovy shirts and defo better with hair ! Hell, as long as he has those shades on who cares, they still Rock !
How many pairs of shades can one man own I wonder ??? I think i've only seen one pic of him without them. Anyone seen any others ?? :von:
