Our Take

Sisters of Mercy's "A Slight Case of Overbombing" is a collection of greatest hits that will have you reaching for your eyeliner and fishnet tights faster than you can say "goth chic." This album is a gothic extravaganza that effortlessly blends moody synths, pulsating basslines, and Andrew Eldritch's signature baritone vocals that could make even the most hardcore emo kid shed a tear.

From the anthemic "This Corrosion" to the hauntingly beautiful "Lucretia My Reflection," this album is a brooding masterpiece that will transport you to the darkest corners of your soul. And let's not forget the infectious energy of tracks like "Temple of Love" and "More," which are guaranteed to have you dancing like it's 1985.

The Sisters of Mercy may have a reputation for being gloomy and mysterious, but there's a certain cheeky charm to their music that's impossible to resist. Whether you're a die-hard goth or just in the mood for some atmospheric tunes, "A Slight Case of Overbombing" is the perfect soundtrack for your next midnight séance or graveyard picnic. So throw on your leather jacket, backcomb your hair, and let the Sisters of Mercy take you on a sonic journey through the shadows. It's a ride you won't soon forget.

About the artist

The Sisters of Mercy

SISTERS OF MERCY: The gothic rock legends that oozed more darkness than a midnight graveyard rave. This Leeds-based band, fronted by the enigmatic Andrew Eldritch, burst onto the scene in the early 1980s and quickly became the darlings of the alternative music world. With their signature blend of post-punk, new wave, and epic gloom, SISTERS OF MERCY were like a swirling vortex of black eyeliner and existential dread. Eldritch's baritone vocals could make even the most jaded listener feel like they were trapped in a gothic cathedral on a stormy night. Their seminal album "First and Last and Always" is a classic of the genre, with tracks like "Lucretia My Reflection" and "Marian" still sending shivers down spines to this day. SISTERS OF MERCY knew how to create a mood, and that mood was always one of brooding intensity. But don't let their somber aesthetic fool you - these guys had a sense of humour too. Just check out their cheeky cover of The Rolling Stones' "Gimme Shelter" for a taste of their playful side. And let's not forget their famous feud with former band member Wayne Hussey, which was like a gothic soap opera playing out in real time. So if you're in the mood for some dark, moody, and utterly captivating music, look no further than SISTERS OF MERCY. Just be sure to wear your black eyeliner and velvet cape - they wouldn't have it any other way.
