Exactly this. The Sisters in 1994 would have been well out of place, even among the Lollapalooza crowd. Von putting the Sisters on hiatus for that year and the next would have been the best thing he could have done.ribbons69 wrote: ↑21 Apr 2025, 23:00What I remember of 1994 was Grunge in the US along with stuff like Pavement, and "Britpop" here in the UK with Oasis, Pulp and Blur. I'm not sure why a record label would be pushing a Goff agenda back then. Marilyn Manson pushing the Goff look wasn't until 1996.FadeInto1 wrote: ↑21 Apr 2025, 14:48 Guys. The trick is to read the words I wrote.
I never said "make a goth album". I said make an album that could be marketed to goths. That whole alternative/industrial thing that was going on at that time was one of about six pre-defined MTV market segments into which all bands seemed to be square-pegged into, regardless of how they sounded or how connected to that particular "scene" they were. Do you guys not remember this?
They'd be more likely trying to put Von in a flannel shirt rather than black bondage gear.
