Our Take

Ah, the Sisters of Mercy, the gothic rock band that just keeps on giving. Their Original Album Series is a treasure trove of moody, atmospheric tunes that will transport you straight back to the dark and brooding 80s.

First up, we have "First and Last and Always," their debut album that sets the tone for the band's signature sound. From the haunting vocals of frontman Andrew Eldritch to the driving guitars and pulsating drums, this album is a goth masterpiece that still holds up decades later.

Next, we dive into "Floodland," an album that sees the Sisters of Mercy truly come into their own. Featuring hits like "This Corrosion" and "Lucretia My Reflection," this album is a perfect blend of gothic rock and pop sensibilities that will have you dancing in your black eyeliner.

Moving on to "Vision Thing," the band's third studio album that sees them exploring more electronic influences. While some fans may have been resistant to the change in sound, tracks like "More" and "Doctor Jeep" prove that the Sisters of Mercy are not afraid to experiment and push boundaries.

Overall, the Sisters of Mercy Original Album Series is a must-have for any goth rock enthusiast. With their dark, brooding sound and introspective lyrics, this collection is a testament to the band's enduring appeal and influence in the music industry. So grab your leather jacket, put on some eyeliner, and immerse yourself in the atmospheric world of the Sisters of Mercy. You won't be disappointed.

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.
