will Eldritch ever declare the death of TSOM?

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.

Okay, maybe not dead...how about...band with a long, long overdue album and a long suffering, dedicated fanbase.

Wait a minute, Von beats Guns in terms of not delivering new product recently...geez.

Like I said...at least there's bootlegs! 8)

Is it possible to like both GNR and TSOM? I know there's a few people even here on HL who do like both, even though the two seem so totally different from each other at first glance.
What do you people think? What do the two have in common? I'm seriously asking this, in terms of the more in-depth similarities than just not delivering new products or having problems with their singers.

At first glance, I thought Slash and Hussey had a lot in common, lookwise.
Go to sleep now, Francis.

Or band members with crazy headgear?

I'm truly sorry for any offence caused Black Planet.

But...

The hair...
The cheekbones...
The pasty white face...

Ask yourself this: Have Andrew Eldritch and Michael Jackson ever been photographed together?

Surely this in itself is suspicious...



Seriously though BP - console yourself that Von's voice is a deep sexy growl, while Jackson sounds like he's caught his jewels in a mangle.

Father smiscandlon, can I confess?
I accidently caught the tale end of some old pharts video collesction show on vh-1 the other night (Paddy recommended the program after it, go figure).
Anway, I saw Cliff Richard's video for 'Wired For Sound'.
Deeply disturbing, but he was a proto Mr. E and on wheels!!! I have searched the web in vain for proof, none I could find.

It did happen tho.... what are you backing away?


No, come back, I've got wine and stuff.....

gnr and tsom make very different music, but i guess you could say they are 2 bands that have always been totally committed to their music (so much so they can take years to release an album). Yet they are both bands that many people probably laugh at. Love them or hate them kind of thing.
I like them both anyway!
Anyone seen that site where they compare eldritch to a number of different people, including michael jackson - they look eerily simlar!
