New Sisters track previewed in Cleveland sound check!

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.

Middle piece sounds almost exactly like This Corrosion, and the strophe wakka-wakka-riff sounds like ten nu-metal songs I can think of right now.

I think it is just that, a soundcheck and nothing else.

Nurse started on a demo pattern and the rest improvising as they go, playing something they kinda like (Millennium) and adding something they kinda know (This Corrosion)

I've listened to this a few times in the last 24 hours. The opening does sound a bit like Killing Joke but the really nice shift for the chorus sections is cool as hell. Nice contrast in this. Whether they're just screwing around or it's for "real" it sounds amazing.

as the doctor seems programmed completely, it's a bit too much just to be screwing around..

i remember back in 2005, when we arrived in Lokeren before the gig, we heard the soundcheck from the parkinglot, as they were playing Emma..and they played it.. so imo, they are rehercing this song to introduce it later on ( as they did with Still in 2006 after the US part of the tour) hopefully before Brussels :) :lol:

I hope you're right Ghostrider. It certainly would be a step in the right direction. If true it would give hope to new material being released someday. The fact that they are energized enough to be writing new songs is a good sign. I mean there is basically enough "new" tracks that a proper album could be made them. So if this is indeed a new song to be premiered soon things may be looking up, because it has been quite awhile since any new stuff has shown up in the set lists. 8)

Yeah, but none of the other new songs brought new releases. I wouldn't hold my breath.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Not bad, but the vocals are far too low in the mix...

I think it's been dubbed 'Sisters Of Muppets' or 'Ocean To Ocean'
