[kj] OT: sisters of mercy

[GREG SLAWSON]

There was always something phony and corny about the Sisters to me...and of course they wouldn't exist w/o the Joke (and I guess Bauhaus too)

Jaz, pompous, what are you thinking? <grin>
 
I thought the early Sisters stuff (Temple of Love etc) was pretty good but no more than that.  Whereas Killing Joke have got something to be pompous about...

"More" certainly isn't their finest. 
Try either of these instead:

And, it's a good thing that Jaz never came off as pompous back then.... :D

I've just watched them doing More on youtube, and was reminded of how utterly pompous they seemed back in the day (in particular, Eldritch's voice).
 
Was I wrong?  Any Sisters fans care to tell me why they were great?

Weird thing about the Sisters as a live-concern these days (and these days means everything since the mid-90s, I guess), is that they continue to write and perform NEW songs, but they just don't exist as official releases. Sure, you can prize them as muddied bootlegs, but for some of us -- that's just not good enough. Their wry little website has been coy about things for literally decades.
Meanwhile, is anyone going to the Mission reunion (without Mick)? They're recording a reunion album as well .... like the world needs that.

Thinking about it, being a SOM fan is a bit like being a KJ fan if their
last album was Extremities . . 



Some may think this is a good thing :o)

Last studio album was 1990. A Temple of Love remix in 92 and Greatest
hits, 1993.
I guess they do a lot of merch? :/

Can a band that hasn't released anything since 1993 really be considered
a band any more?

They're not really The Sisters any more are they? More like Happy Andy
E's 80's Goth Revival Band as far as I can see

I hate seeing the words "Killing Joke" underneath the word "Slipknot" on
a bill. That just ain't right.



Meanwhile, what's the communication like between KJ and the Sisters? I
believe I remember Jaz slagging off the Sisters way back circa OTG, but
I wonder what the status is these days.
