BlackPlanet / Merciless gone???

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.

It would appear the webmaster has better things to do.

What was the URL? If unsure, can you give a description of the site?

Hells bells. I haven't a clue, sorry.
Too busy trying to organise time off work to go and watch Noam Chomsky

If I don't mistake:

www.merciless.net

Sisters discography (official and unofficial - i. e. long long list of bootlegs), lyrics (with some little mistakes, to be true, but - on the other hand - also officialy unreleased lyrics) and much more.

So - :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

I believe it was at www.merciless.net.

Great site, with a pretty exhaustive list of Sisters bootlegs which I referred to quite often.

It'll be a shame if that it gone permanently. :cry:

Looks like they've missed a payment to keep the site up and running

Ah, yes. The website used in this thread http://www.myheartland.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=4727. Nice place.

:cry: First Christer's, now this one. The past few months have been harsh on sisters sites.

I don't want to seem disrespectful to Spiggy's website but it had no use anymore, and there wasn't much activity in recent years.

It was a fave of mine till I discovered here, I even checked it last week but it was moribund. People move on....

The ruin of that website can be found here.
The link does not work anymore (of course).
