Worst Sisters songs.

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.

But.....why are you wondering anyway?
Having read some of the posts I was convinced that not many had seen them with either the great Ben Gunn ( I recall he was tall, not scrawny) or the outstanding Jerry Lovelock (minus poncho). That was why I was wondering, once again by mistake.

1. More
2. Dr. Jeep
3. Flood I (Self indulgent and lacking in actual music)
4. Phantom
5. Kiss The Carpet
6. Floorshow (This and the two previous are only not the top 3 because I'm giving them props for being early on).
7. Finland Red, Egypt White
8. Jihad
9. Detonation Boulevard
10. Gimme Shelter (Not a good choice - this song was cool because of facts about the "Stones" sound that are specifically NOT part of the "Sisters" sound - IE loose, rollicking.

None of them are THAT bad, say compared to Bryan Adams songs. But none of these are really good enough for the Sisters.

I don't know how anyone cannot love Crash & Burn. For me personally its seriously pushing Ribbons & SKOS for all time top spot. I know that's just my taste but its just soooooo good!

If such a thing as rock clubs still existed it should be a dancefloor killer.

Worst songs to add.

- Gardens of Delight (I've come across two versions
of this demo songs, both of them sounds terrible).
I much prefer m*****n's one (not their 1st album but
from 1st Chapter)

I've never come across sisters version of "Serpent's Kiss" (probably demo version). Any comment on this song would be appreciated.

Actually Detmold live is my first sister's bootleg and

presume.
