Cover time

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'm a huge fan of ol' JG Thirwell, but I thought that FALAA was pretty bad--he really just phoned it in. I expect more from him.

edit: and I still think the best TSOM cover I've ever heard is the Supersuckers doing Afterhours.
"phoned it in" :lol:

he claims that he hadn't even heard the original - he just found the lyrics on the web and put them to a tune he was already working on :notworthy:
So he's got even less excuse for it being that s**t. Marvellous :innocent:

And the best Sisters cover imnsho is Messrs 'Christ and Christo doing Vision Thing.

Well, that would explain it. That's a shame, though: I bet he could have done something really neat with it if he'd been familiar with it.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

DocSommer, you absolutely rule! Quite magnificent tool you shared with us!
:notworthy:

As of the subject of covers, I have to say that I love the Marian cover by Nouvelle Vague and (I know I'm gonna be crucified by saying this...) Cradle of Filth's No Time to Cry.

With a band name like that, I can do nothing else but shudder in horror at the thought of how abominably, inhumanly bad it must be.

Haven't been on this forum for a whle, so it may be covered already. But anyways, this is the best SOM cover I ever heard:

Zis corrozion
I quite like this cover. Very different take on This Corrosion true, but that's exactly why I like it. 8)

All I can say is: ugh ugh ugh. Get thee back to the cave.

That is awful. And the video too is just... ugh.

Seriously. That is offensively bad.
