Alice 2004

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.

sisters were dropped by wea a few years ago so why would they be releasing a remix planned for 2004?

and the sisters stopped using "rise and reverberate" at least 17 years ago.

ten-to-one its just some dj f**king about - 100% unofficial.

would still be interested to hear it though...

It does sound interesting, can't be official I'm sure but have emailed the eBay seller for tracklisting... Dirty Funker has done some house bootleg tracks before (bit more info at http://www.discogs.com/artist/Dirty_Funker).
Have you seen the eBay guy's p&p charge btw? £7!!!

Yum.

looks sexy

So, it's a boot, it's probably fake, agree with QB's comments. Guessing WEA links severed sometime 1994/5? and whoever it was has gone for the old iconography :notworthy: :notworthy:

but it does look nice and it's not Cdr. Someone has cut this to vinyl. and going by the entry price, Eu10 doesn't say "hens teeth" to me, I'm thinking there are gonna be a few coming up over the next few weeks.

btw - the reverse side is the lyrics to Alice :von:

i got close to ordering by going via http://deejay.de/frames/frame_de.asp?lang=en, doing a search then adding it to my basket... but then it told me "Cannot be delivered/has to be ordered" for one of them, and "Presale" for the other. Also, looks like they only take orders over 25€ :|

I'm sure if you email them, they should be able to take the order...
But I haven't tried and I'm not interested in buying stuff like that anyway (but wish I could hear the mixes though).

If anybody eventually gets it, let the forums know how it sounds like.

Just checked the e-bay link and it went for stupid money - £51!

What's the idiot's guide for buying direct from the site?

Do you have to spend a minimum of 25 euros?

Not so much technically challenged as chronically lazy!

For anyone who wants a cheaper and easier way of getting this vinyl, do a search for "sisters of mercy" here:
http://www.juno.co.uk
£5.99 + £1.80 p&p... Slightly cheaper than the £43 the guy at http://www.spiritproductions.net wanted to sell me one for. Sorry if anyone's kicking themselves right now :(

the spirit site says its a white label single - so does it come with the "artwork" shown on the ebay item above?

and if so, do the juno copies also come with the same artwork?

if not, where did the artwork shown above come from?
