What is this? Why do I have the feeling this cannot be true.

But....my heart started beating a bit faster for a few secs....

"Sisters of Mercy, The (title TBA; first album since 1990) (Merciful Release, late 2005/early 2006)"

http://www.slowboatrecords.co.nz/upcoming/upcoming.htm

If this "story" has been covered before just bin this thread.

Oh my legs have gone all weak.
But is says data sourced from pause&play.com,there's no mention of the sisters over there.

(about 2/3 of the way down)

Sisters of Mercy, The (title TBA; first album since 1990) (Merciful Release, early 2006)

It's probably been there since the site started, with the release date being incremented year-by-year. Pay no attention to it.

...the company name hints already: "Slow Boat Records"

Ah well......at least for a few seconds I could sense an incredible rush of adrenaline....

It all could be so incredibly nice...

They've got some of the other artists' albums right (and some wrong), but if there was ANY chance of an album in the next six months, surely we'd know about it by now? I mean, there have been rumours of movements in Leeds, but nothing on any record contract, right? I personally am wishing for something else for Christmas right now.

Still, a bit of vain deluded hope never hurt anyone, right?

...especially as the site wasn't updated since 7th July 2005.

How where when?

Probably this is far from true, but my heart's starting to beat faster, loads

If only it were true

Guess you are right MrChris......so maybe next Christmas.

Maybe on the 25th anniversary some journalist AE does not dislike wants an interview about the past and the future of the Sisters. Maybe that journalist will ask the question whether anything is going to be officially released in the future and maybe AE gives an answer that does not take away my hopes.....

Will I Dream?

Give the journalist a good pair of tits and you'll get the answer you dream of.

Is that bad? Thought he only liked German girls...(Berlin and Reeperbahn ones).

I believe there is anecdotal evidence to the contrary. Putting it mildly.

oohhh! Wouldn't it be nice . . .

Although, putting out a record in secret would rather seem to defeat the point. Maybe it's just obtuse enough to appeal to Mr E though. Imagine the scene- dodgy darkling approaches the trenchcoated one to plead yet again for the release of new product, only to be told, it was put out six months ago. "Didn't you notice?"

Maybe AE should go back to the method that worked in the first place: he wants to hear himself on the radio, and presses a thousand copies of the new single.

Well Z., if ever it's gonna happen I'm going to invite you to a party containing you and myself in Antwerp. Both dressed in orange

Never let the hope go

I could lend either of you a shockingly bright orange safety jacket...

What's the name of the short street just off the Reeperbahn? Erichstrasse?

In any case, if there's no post on the official website, the horse's mouth, there's probably no need to get worked up. Tours are usually posted promptly, there's no reason to believe that any information concerning the release date of a new album wouldn't be posted promptly as well.

The rest is rumor mill grist

Yeah... ok... my heart fluttered too

I think their own site is the last thing we ought to look at, remember this summer's gigs?

Ah, well, just sit back, relax and be surprised

The name of the street is Herbertstr. ... and... err, I never said the above things *cough*. Quoting crash-course anyone?

No.


Herbertstrasse, ah yes. "Just walk down the street, I'll meet you on the other side," said Heike. "Why?" said I. "Because they'll throw dirty water at me if I walk down there with you." Heike had a good gigle when I emeged on the other side.

Have any ladies here walked down Herbertstrasse? Can they verify the dirty water?

Well, it was just about the last place to say they were going to do some gigs... Go figure
