The rumour did come from a reliable source - i.e. not Von - and at least two of us heard it separately, so it does seem to be a little better than the usual.
This was in Bristol as well, when it must have been obvious that the post-UK dates were at least at risk.
But Genevieve
For the record, I'd love to see ANYTHING new from the sisters. If there was a kickstart with goodies, etc, I'd happily pay north of €100 for an album release.
All they'd need to sweeten the deal would be a teeshirt and poster and I'm there.
And I'd bet there's a lot of me out there.

Goths have feelings too
Having bought the Nephilim's Prophecy single I can tell you, wasteful as it might be, it's entirely possible to produce a 7" single with nothing pressed on the b-side.il duce wrote:A physical single would be very cool since it has to have a B-side.

... so there is worse in the world than I had expected ... ... while of course there was a Long Train Flexi back in the days ... However IMHO, the so far untitled instrumental would make a lovely b-side to some Genevieve single ...

But the eternal optimist in me likes to hope they'll pick one of the other new tracks for which they've posted lyrics on the site.

I wouldn't mind a treat with a Saxophone oriented instrumental like in Dominion/Μother Russia single, that we never heard before

If they can bring back The X-Files, they can release new Sisters material.iesus wrote:

Torn between hope and the deep seated cynicism that experience of all matters Sisters has brought for approaching 30yrs, and yet I dutifully turn up like the 'sad act' my sons say
'Show Me' would have been a better choice though IMHO.

'Show Me' deserves it's own 12'' single release! we even have the artwork for the cover somewhere around in the forumSwinnow wrote:Torn between hope and the deep seated cynicism that experience of all matters Sisters has brought for approaching 30yrs, and yet I dutifully turn up like the 'sad act' my sons say

Did anyone who initially heard this rumor also happen to hear anthing about possible labels, etc? I’m sure the band could record the song(s) themselves for little or no money, but pressing and distribution is a different story.
I’m sorry, but the very idea of a actual new Sisters release, possibly as early as next month, is just so damn exciting I can’t stop thinking about it. 😅

The dominant need of the needy soul is to be needed.
Adding 2+2 together and possibly getting 5, Cadiz Music would seem a good possibility, given they are producing the Gift reissue.TheGoodSon wrote:Did anyone who initially heard this rumor also happen to hear anthing about possible labels, etc?

Obviously pure unfounded speculation on my part.

Good point. But is there any real need for physical product in 2020?
Bandcamp is there & used by many to shift digital copies of material.
& chances of getting pressing capacity when all the factories want to do is run off another 50k copies of Brothers In Arms is pretty remote anyway.

I'm just glad there's enough bands like NMA, Levellers and even t'Mish who still manage to produce and put out physical product for sad old duffers like me
....if I have to explain, then you'll never understand....
I don't remember anything about labels, but Merciful Release with some kind of licensing/distribution deal would surely work?
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.
