New Stellar Corpse album - cover of "When You Don't See

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 just received a press kit for the new Stellar Corpse album "Welcome To The Nightmare" and bugger me if there isn't a cover of "When You Don't See" ! An interesting arrangements for a psychobilly/horror punk band

Is it available to hear anywhere online?

Concerned now, isn't the possibility of a cover being crap pushing eighty, ninety percent?

Not sure of the release date I believe it is 6/26.

Yeah, I am not a big fan of covers, particularly anything to do with the Sisters. If I had not heard :von: sing this one I would probably like it more

No, the possibility of people judging any cover to be bad because they think goth died in 1984 is pushing 90 percent. Subtle difference.

This cover's alright, if not brilliantly recorded.

These guys are good friends of mine. I've seen 'em play this cover live and it came off rather well.

I'm glad there's another dark-tinted Psychobilly with an appreciation for the Sisters.

the vocals are pish but the band make a better 'crunch' than the current TSOM do, so that's fine - allowed ;D

Okay, I wasted more time elsewhere, but there I enjoyed it.

Why would anyone want to cover one of the weakest Sisters songs ever? Oh Boy.

i'm a big fan of psychobilly but rather that oldschool one (long tall texans, quakes, archie, demented are go, batmobile). that metal psycho kind is not my cup of tea. nothing special, except that voice is not like on most sisters covers (chuck shuldiner's kids etc.). i'll like to hear proper billy version of some sisters song. body electric with double bass and clear rat-mad guitars will be fine :D
long live rock'n'roll

I recently dug out In Heaven by The Meteors and what a cracking debut that was.
