Awesome video page

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.

Always wonderful to see those 83 videos. :von: :notworthy: Even with rudimentary analogue equipment, the sound is fantastic.

I love how both this and the merch store crop up just a few weeks after I've fallen headfirst into Sisters infatuation.

The videos seem higher quality that when I last saw that page. Some quality upgrades to my copies too, such as Detroit Exit Club, of which my copy has always had an annoying up&down wobble to it.

Indeed a very nice site, also alot of rare footage from other indie, industrial and goth acts. I've spent many hours on that site during the years... some really entertaining Revolting Cocks and Ministry footage if you´re into that.
...I’ve never had the desire to make a record unless I have something to say...

It doesn't get much better than the last four or five songs of that Brixton Academy gig. They look as if they are really enjoying it and know that they have something really special. Good to see some of that joie de vivre returning on some of the 2014 vids.

"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

I don't mind if they replace an instrumental with an instrumental Heartland version that not involves singing for :von:
In fact he can just have a nice cup of tea or other herbals while it is played and we can have some serious dance in it :innocent:

Didn't stop him trying good things. :lol:
