The Storm - any idea who recorded this single ??

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Around 1991 / 1992 I recall hearing a single by a US goth group - I think the song was called 'The Storm' - which went something along the lines :-

'the storm is forming, watch the clouds blow in, if the lesson is life, let the lesson begin'.

The song was totally 'sisters', complete with lucretia-style bassline & deep doomy vocals, ala the good captain. I've tried in vain to find out who the group is / was, has anyone got any ideas ? I think the group were from Memphis ( ? ), but I could be wrong.

Someone suggested to me previously it might be The Wake, but having acquired their 'Masked' album I can say it's not them ! :cry:

If someone can solve this mystery I will add them to my Christmas card list. Cheers ! :wink:

Could be Faith And The Muse, maybe? Their album "Anwyn, Beneath The Waves" comes to mind...

If it were 1991/1992, then Monica would have been in Strange Boutique still. Faith and the Muse formed later.

On a side note, if anyone has (or knows of) any live Strange Boutique, please let me know.

Almost definitely not 'The Storm' you're on about, but the one I'd have been on about would be by World of Twist.
