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.

can't remember offhand if i replied to this thread before, so please indulge me if i have.

it would have been nice to see the rest of the body and soul 12" tracks appear on FALAA; same goes for untitled/sandstorm and ozymandias on floodland -just for completeness.

that aside i'll be buying them simply because remastering albums from 20 years ago has worked well for other faves from my youth -noticeably "pornography" for example- and the (1st) remastered FALAA deserves to be bettered (by something other than the original which pisses all over it).

and it's a few bob in royalties for everyone's favourite touring-band. it might even generate enough new fans /interest....new album..blah,blah etc.

Aye, this is the thing.

Popping in very, very late here, but I noticed that too. I wonder if that's true. hotstuff.se, a usually very reliable bunch, is charging 159 SEK

At Mediamarkt Antwerp they told me release is set for 3 november (but according to them, that could be a bit too optimistic) and price would be somewhere around 7,50 Eurokens. Makes me smi-i-ile :D

Reminds me of the classic line from David Suchet's Poirot after someone referred to him as a "bloody little frog"...

Bugger - mine must be a later version, it's played on one of these (the original original Docktor 'Lanche...)
