Cat Power vs 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.

Found this whilst killing time on the net. Take a listen to this track by Cat Power and then listen to 1959.

I thought this was going to be a debate on the relative merits of Atomic Kittin vs. The Sisters... :roll:

I know you're referring to Eighties/Come As You Are, but I chose to interpret it my own way in order to let people know that yes, I think Killing Joke are awesomer than Nirvana.
