Nineteen Ninety Five And Nowhere : 2nd of december 2007

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.

I suppose this is the most exciting thing going on around here anyways.
At least we're not desperate enough to be anticipating a re-release of Broon - Yet another self-released smattering of half-baked Sisters hopefuls, though I couldn't imagine any of these making the cut either.
Bloody shame Eldritch dropped the ball in the first quarter. Damn near two decades since VT.

Unlike Broon, the Marx songs are actually, well... good.

I have just listened to the samples on the MySpace page... not bad at all... far from mediocre.
It sounds a lot like what the Sisters could have become had Marx stayed in the band.

The sound is highly reminiscient of early Sisters which is perhaps expected, but more mature.
One track even sounds like a sequel to Nine While Nine.

Praise to Mister Marx for blowing the twelve year old dust from this piece of work,
revamping it and allowing it to see the light of day. 8)

Is this going to be available via a UK based website? Nothing against buying it direct from D-Monic, but was just looking on Amazon and nothing listed that I could find.

Distribution in stores will start in january, but some shops have already listed the album, and it will be on amazon and everywhere else soon.
For the UK you have for example this store:

Same here, about to give it a jolly good listen :D

Just out of interest, could any of you guys that have the original seven demos, let us know how different the new versions are, and which you prefer?

Many thanks :)

Funny you mention stuff written by Hussey, with only some help from Marx on NTTC.
I like these calm little moments before the storm. It reminds me of Beethoven. Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear the growin' and you can hear the insects.

Just got the pressing plant made a mistake when they pressed the inlay, so they removed the bad ones and puth the good ones, that might be the reason, but I don't think it laters the quality of the release isn't it ?

On further news a large interview (2 pages) of mister Gary Marx will beinlcuded in the french magazine Elegy, I have already read it and it is VERY interesting.

Hope people here enjoy this release ...

Release date latest

A problem at the manufacturers has resulted in the proposed release date of Dec 1st having to be revised.

Our apologies for this unforseen problem and we will keep you updated as information becomes available.

A new ten track version of the album is scheduled for release early in 2008 on the specialist French Indepedent label D-Monic (www.d-monic.net)

Re-mastered and re-packaged in response to continued interest since being deleted from the back catalogue, the album will be available from January 2008


Look out for news of discounts on copies for anyone who purchased the original 7 track CDR via this site.
How did all you buggers get yours in December then? :|

This is because when we received the cd's we realized that UPS has damaged a big part of the parcels, so we only kept the number of copies which was not damaged for the pre-orders (so that people get it them in time), and the rest was sent back to the pressing plant for a new pressing, we should get the new pressing next week and then the cd's will be sent to Gary as soon as we get them.
Here is the explanation !
