dominion box sets

Have you established a good reputation at HL and got some Sisters stuff to sell or trade with the community? Or are you searching for that elusive ultra rare live bootleg from 1988? Ever had a bad experience with a trader on Ebay? Let us all know here. Outdated threads will be purged over time.

yeah, of the really boring kind...

i have the german version of the 12" box set including the uk pressing 12" mr43 tb as usual - which comes in the standard uk mr43 t envelope sleeve. the boring question now is: does there exist an mr 43 tb sleeve or does the uk version also come in the mr 43 t sleeve?

All sleeves of both German and UK box set releases are MR43T, still there is a difference between box set releases and the regular releases: box set have an envelope sleeve with top opening, regular have a spined sleeve with side opening ... hope I didn't bore you to death :D

elementry question:
what is supposed to be in the dominion box set, or more to the point, what was the pint of putting the This Corrosion 12" (slip sleeve opening at the top) in too?
and why spread it across two 12" when only one track on each side is different?
.
finally in my torrent of consciousness
.
has anyone yet gone to the trouble of recording/reversing the version of dominion tacked onto the end of 'untitled' to see if is different?
:? :?:

Should have :

1 x 12" MR-43TB
1 x Poster
1 x Box
what was the point of putting the This Corrosion 12" (slip sleeve opening at the top) in too?
They didn't. Only the Dominion 12" was in it.

The box set for This Corrosion had This Corrosion 7" with postcards in it (as far as I remember).

Untitled (Extended) is basically Untitled with Ozymandias on the end. When reversed it does sound a little different. Certain things have been reversed and some aren't. It's been a while since I listened to it. And don't forget, Ozymandias isn't available on the normal 12", only on CD.

I think the Dominion b-sides were some of the best Sisters tracks.

Whatever you say. I still think Sandstorm's one of the best.

mine's not numbered individually and has the 12" as stated with the extended untitled (on which point i agree with dark _untitled is one of the most hauntingly beautiful pieces of music i have ever heard) and has a laarge-ish sepia poster of the von from del monte and patsy looking well-worth a hundred camels.

and the TC box was 7" and mine is individually no'd.

a question at the mods: shouldn't this sort of thing be in the anorak- i mean, trading area? sisters FAQ'S should be "where does the name the sisters of mercy come from" and "has anyone ever seen andrew without his shades on?" surely?

Possibly...
