Hi guys!
I just wanted to say hi to you. I joined the forum in November, before the concert in Poland, just as the cancellings started. I remembered the Sister’s website referencing the forum. I guessed you would be the most updated party and I wasn’t disappointed. I got much more that I expected.
I got to know TSOM embarrassingly late, even though with my background and taste they should’ve been my favorite band for a long time. I was listening to Dominion and I was „wait a minute, I know this” and after some digging, I realized that the text reminded me of Shelley. Then I started reading the other texts and fell in love. I’m going through the “text” section, and I couldn’t be more thankful to you guys!
Even though I studied English literature and linguistics, and my literary taste mostly overlaps with Von’s, I don’t get all the references in texts. I have problems, especially, when two words/phrases have two meanings because they sound the same, (but are written differently). Maybe it’s because I’m Polish, or maybe because I’ve never been good in deciphering poetry
Anyways, thank you!
An overdue hello

It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.
Welcome to the forum! One of the main reasons I like the Sisters so much is that every time you think about Von's lyrics, you see something you haven't noticed before - that's true for all of us I suspect.

Thank you!
German literature is amazing as well. I've just read that Never Land (A Fragment) may have been inspired by Faust. I also read Schiller in high school. Not bad background to have

Discovering The 'Sisters too late ? for what ? too late to buy the latest album on the day of its release sure, but that applies to all the fanbase under 50 hehe. Youve turmed up in time to see them live which is the best way to experience them anyway. (ALL the ways of experiencing them are equally "best" so my statement stands )

"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"
