the sisters of mercy currently wondering

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.

Why is it that all those demos & unreleased "studio" recordings mostly sound so cr@ppy?

I mean, they are studio recordings right?

Should they not be crystal clear, dreamy quality?

Instead, they are muddy messes.

Perhaps recorded with crappy 4-track recorders and mixed with unexperienced ears.

Because they're copies of copies of copies?
