I'm very fine with most of the new songs - even some of them are ~10 years old :lol: :lol:

If I should pick out the a-sides, I'd choose:

crash and burn
summer
susanne
will I dream

I like the history, which is why I'm here. If you like the new songs? Good for you, I won't argue; each to his own.

And that makes this a wonderful place.
:eek:
is this a suicide note? :lol: :wink:

I don't like War On Drugs- the chorus is particularly banal.

The wailing wahoooooooooooo sounds like a throttling at a warped cowboy western hoe-down. Then it all speeds up at end faster & faster into one of those dodgy last numbers you have to suffer when you go to a disco birthday/wedding party & they all start swinging arms & legs together at increasing speed & you cannot escape :(

I like what I've heard of the new stuff - For me STILL could kick the ass of any stuff other bands are pumping out
COME TOGETHER - I really like the sound of this and I reckon it would be a bigger hit than MORE - if it went through a studio

Uh, like TBOT's song, 'Inter Alia' states, it's been 18 years now since Vision Thing, 15 years since Under The Gun and 13 years since Gary Marx and Andrew Eldritch could have made a killer album together.

Oh and almost a full 10 years since the official site has stated my signature.

Sorry but some of us are counting the days. :oops:

I'm off to invest in medication for this apparent case of OCD. :innocent:

The chorus of War On Drugs amuses the hell out of me.

I'd record these myself if I could find the inspiration to finish my own album, never mind anyone else's.

Though recording cover versions does sound like a nice way to test new equipment... time to bust out the bootlegs and start transcribing.

it will make me happier in Belgium,still

Just to qualify my last post and explore some sense of come together.
I just checked it out on a couple of repeats and definitely,
this intro is the sound a man's brain might make realising that yes, I do own that hard-on... :eek:

Does anyone else get that?

It was a reference to the band Suicide and their album, "A Way Of Life", which incidentally as a Sisters fan, influenced the Sisters (read some interviews or at least the inlay to Some Girls) and I thought everyone here would 'get it'.

Sheesh. :roll:

I do have every Suicide album, and I do know their influence on the Sisters, I just thought it was a lame one-liner :wink:
