Who would like to see record with The Sisters?

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 would simply like to see them record.

Before I die.

bizarre. IIRC choque hosein has remixed both of these people (through his work as black star liner and sweetblood) - and he's bessie mates with herr eldritch.

maybe we should ask him to put all parties concerned in touch :D :lol:

good choice. :von: :notworthy:

Hasn't this been done before, somewhere?

IIRC, Kylie and Madonna featured highly in the votes. Personally I'd go for the latter.

I leave my computer for half an hour with the reply window up and you beat me to it! Someone's gotta play bass. Maybe some backing vox on an agressive Vision Thing-type rocker? And it certainly couldn't hurt in the promotion department, either.

An updated Doktor. I love The Doktor as much as anyone, but Von & Co. have been using the same samples since TOL '92. I think they could make good use of a wider palette of drum sounds. And if Von wants to present the Sisters as a contemporary act, that's an easy enough way to do it. Programming has come a long way since Vision Thing.
Left at the dead badger.

If I recall correctly, didn't Von actually say in an interview somewhere on the web back in the late 90's that he was planning on asking Lemmy to play bass on the record? It was posted on the old CDNOW site, I think.

Good idea. A medley of "Romeo Down" and "Breathe Me In" would be suitably awful. ;D

hmmm... lets go for a bit of commercial oomph here (well, relatively at least) - how about words and vocals by Von, Drums by the Doktor, and all music etc by Trent Reznor? That might work....

Ian Curtis, Kurt Cobain, Janis Joplin, The Lizard King......'cause it's just as likely as teaming up with someone that's breathing.
Elvis not included as everyone knows he is ALIVE

Oh well I'd rather go with something more challenging, something you wouldn't expect. This is your message I quoted, but don't worry it could've been another, it's just a general feeling...
You don't want Eldo to give you what you expect, do you ? You'd probably end up disappointed anyway. After all the man is a Leonard Cohen fan, so why not something along these lines ? Bowie is another good pick.

I thought he'd already done that!! Still convinced he wrote the music and lyrics to "No Good Advice"...

"I don't need no good advice
I'm already wasted
I don't need some other life
Cold and complicated
I don't need no Sunday trips
Tea and sympathising
I don't need no special fix
To anaesthetise me"
