Favourite Sisters Album?

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.

No it isn't. The answer is Floodland, for you at the back.

Including Some Girls is just down right confusing. Should really just be First And Last, Floodland and Vision Thing, don't ya think?

Floodland if for no other reason than Neverland (a fragment), yes I do have a hang-up about that track. It seemed to be pointing thay forward on the original vinyl, it never did, but it was a nice thought. :(

If we're counting compilations, then my vote goes for Tour Thing. In terms of track lengths, mix and order, I think it's the best selection of sisters songs available.

Sorry Thrash, I thought I'd only include officially released albums as some people prefer Singles Compilations's rather than full LP's. It'll be bootleg's next! :wink:

Don't wish to be all 'liberal' about this, but innit time for some Proportional Representation with these polls??

It's SURELY unfair that we can't use the Single Transferable Vote system on this poll especially, as opposed to the outdated first past the post mechanism????

Come on Quiffy, treat yer electorate like the grown adults they are... ;D

Trust me, it looks like a load of flibbertygibbet nonsense, but it is rather a la mode in various places....

Obviously for 'MP' you need to read 'Sisters album' :roll:

However, methinks it might be a bit hard to implement here...But, I'm sure they said that about democracy too, onceuponatime... :innocent:
