Incoming Bands

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Manuskript are fairly fantastic. their cover of A-ha's "the sun always shines on tv" is fun.

http://www.jungle-records.demon.co.uk/bands/nfd.htm
NFD was formed by Peter 'Bob' White (vocals & guitars) Simon Rippin (drums and programming) and Tony Pettitt (bass guitar), all of whom have mainstay considerable experience in the UK goth and rock scene.

Tony Pettitt was a founder-member of the legendary Goth outfit FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM. Simon Rippin had been a member of the Goth Rock band THE NEFILIM and also performed alongside Tony with FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM on a headlining Festival tour of Europe in 2000 playing to audiences of 20,000 and more. Bob White meanwhile had been playing together with Simon in London band SENSORIUM. When playing live, two other guitarists augment the trio: Chris Milden and Stephen Carey, giving Bob the freedom to leap around the stage.

NFD are playing in Colchester? That's tempting. Pity I'll be in Crewe, really.

I have a Voices of Masada single, which isn't bad. They do sound a bit Nephilim in places (think mid-period, Watchman/Chord of Souls stuff, rather than Elizium).

And if Manuskript can promise me a Goth cover of A-ha I'd love to be there. Which venue is it in Colchester? And since I'm in danger of travelling solo, fancy a pint so I don't look like a total Billy-no-Mates?

OK. I'll let you know what I'm up to. Hopefully not attending a wedding anniversary bash, at any rate.

Which was the band little Nod from the Nephs was in? They were very second album 'nephilimy' sounding. I saw them at Whitby a few years ago. Quite good, 'if you like that kind of thing' of course....

Rubicon? That was the band the rest of the Nephs formed without McCoy after the (91? 92?) split.

In Crewe on the 21st August? Oooh look!
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.
