Sisters Images game. The reboot

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.

Very pure.

I know it but I can't think of a good follow-up.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Knowing it and keeping schtum has to be cheating mate! In fairness, I did think 'as soon as Michael sees it the jig will be up' :lol:

I'll tell you what I'll do, if nobody else can get it over the next few days I'll do the necessary.

is actually a cleverer and more oblique answer, which skilfully avoids the much more obvious actual answer :notworthy: ;D

I spent my early teens obsessed with 2000AD, was always going to get that one!

Anyway, keeping the comics theme going...

Nice one, a lot of driving references. Can I submit two guesses (in order)?

"it burns inside this car" - Detonation Boulevard

"I got wrecked out here in a eldorado" - Detonation Boulevard
"Consistency is the sign of a decaying brain"

All's fair in love, war and Sisters images games. :notworthy:

all good guesses, but not what's written on the card. (It's not the Black Planet video either :wink: )

afraid not! It's more to do with one of the people in the car than the car itself...

Still no winner, I'm afraid!

I thought the comic might be recognised, but if you don't know it a quick Google might shed some light...

Done that, thought 'ooo, this looks good, I'm down with that setting, must check it out' and remain no nearer to plucking a song title out of the air, besides perhaps a vague connection to Adrenochrome or Amphetamine Logic, but no specifics jump to mind.

Getting worried I might have gone too obscure on this one. The significant elements are the guy in the back seat, and some of the information in the masthead at the top...

I'll give it another shot:
