"New" Box-Set

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 guess as long as there is nothing new, just keep re-releasing the same old stuff till there is no demand.

if it would have hold 'Gift' I might have had to think about it but this is just sad :(


is this stuff all old stock? because if it isn't I don't see why not releasing new material, I'm sure it would see about the same amount if not more ... and what fans are still out there who could be disappointed?
if they would sell a frakking tsom scarf it would sell, oh wait they did :roll:

Hmmm? It does not say if it is the three re-releases from 2006 plus SGWBM and ASCOOB or the standard versions. It would make a difference. Then one would be getting many of the B-sides as well. It would make a nice gift for someone just getting into the Sisters either way. ;)

Yet we all know what we would really rather have, don't we?

as a artist he's dead for quite a long time.
to be precise, i don't see a results of his work, 9 lyrics and 1 song(music) per 9 years is not enough.
of course quality over quantity but at least few of this songs (will i dream, still and slept) are so weak that shouldn't be written by this band.

I can't believe it. I would rather buy the latest remastered discography from Starship, Heart and Kansas in one shopping bag.

I suppose it has little to do with him, as was the case with the previous re-releases. Come on, if he can't be bothered to record a new album, why would he be bothered to re-release the previous ones? :roll: :lol:

exactly.

the repackaging is absolutely nothing to do with him. it's yet another record label cash-in...

it's been done a few times before with sisters material, and a million times before for every other band (the beatles ffs!)

the artist has no say in any of it.

don't be so quick to judge him ;)

As I recall he said he didn't get a penny from the re-issued albums from a couple of years ago.

obvioulsy i don't know your regulations about this, but i'm quite sure that royalties is something that artist should get/ can demand from each sold copies of his work. it be stupid if it was diferent.
