have you seen a cover worst than that???

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.

It's no worse than the original, but that's not too difficult.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Are they meant to be a Devo tribute band doing a Sisters cover?
You can understand why there has to be a D placed in front of the word evolution.

That robotic chorus reminded me of the gag Bill Hicks and / or Denis Leary used to do about voice boxes and smokers who wouldn't quit. :innocent:

Bill Hicks did it first, Denis Leary copied it. I believe that Bill Hicks said, shortly before he died, something to the effect of "I only got cancer to see whether Denis would copy that, too."

Easily the most interesting version I ever heard/seen of this track (I never listen to the original version as I don't like it).

Should I laugh or cry? Neither... looks like they are just having fun.
That guitar player sure makes playing nothing look intense! :notworthy:

That Gregorian mix is a great concept, ruined by the slapper and her weak-ass voice..Oh! and a lack of musical arrangement

The Dr Jeep performance was so bad I had to post a comment, ruining one of my favourites :twisted:
