new tsom songs in the pipeline ?

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.

found this on formspring..

Hi X, I don't look backwards and want you to play all Sisters classics, yet there's one thing I miss dearly compared to the Pearson era: What YOU guys have written. Surely there must be something more than Still and Arms to play after 5+ years as a unit?

Chris: Yeah there is. We just haven't found time to play them yet. Perhaps in November.
Andrew Eldritch Dour Festival 1997: Yeah, We take any request... As much as we ever do.

Yeah, and "We're always recording." That'll be out in November too.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Chris said/wrote that they they cannot fit new-new songs in the setlist. For sure if you play only 70+ minutes gig.

yeah, they are just like any other normal band - writing new riffs, rechearsals, recordings, yeah, but... except that they are not.
maybe andrew still waiting for million dollar contract and this is the part of their politics. but which big company can care about that dead horse.
it's better for them to play few "entire first 3 albums" gigs and die ;D
long live rock'n'roll

what's quite sad is that they can't be bothered to play the new songs. I can imagine that most bands would love to showcase new songs....have a certain pride in them, see what the reaction of the crowd is..etc

"we have n't had time" is a bit depressing... it's not like doing the ironing is it

:?

I think they'll do a cover of an Anal C*nt song.
