Saw the Bunnies last night

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Or at least thats how he comes across in interviews.
Damn straight. I can't stand them - try as I might to like them, I just find them overblown, pompous nonsense. The liner notes to their best-of are just laughable - they clearly take themselves far too seriously. In most respects, actually, they're like an 80s version of The Doors. Bleugh. That they're given so much adulation is really quite bizarre, I think.. especially when people like The Chameleons get so little notice in turn.

Well I'm kinda with you in a way, kafka, albums 1 and 2 are indispensable from any good record collection and the 3rd is still a very worthy platter. Then it all goes Pete Tong. What calls itself EATB these days is in my view, a very poor relation of a once mighty combo.

Coupla bits of lyrics from it in Rescue, but yeah, some of it was there.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
