First and Last and Always Black Planet Walk Away No Time To Cry A Rock and a Hard Place Marian First and Last and Always Possession Nine While Nine Logic Some Kind Of Stranger

Really, this is one of the bands that really inspired me when I was still a kid. I absolutely still love this line up of the sisters of mercy. Wayne Hussy, Craig Adams, and Andrew Eldritch. After Wayne and Craig left, the sisters of mercy went down hill fast in my opinion. Even thought I still really love floodland as well.

So catchy, dark, haunting. Andrew had this great vocal range. He could go very deep and low, or high and powerful. Very good catchy lyrics. Then you have the driving bass of Adams that is a huge influence on me as a bass player and song writer. As well, Wayne and his arpeggios and really catchy riffs.

Andrew Eldritch to this day denies that the Sisters Of Mercy were ever a “GOTH” band. I think he is right. This stuff is way to catchy and pop oriented rock to be “GOTH”. I put them in the same category as The Cure, who also is not a “GOTH” Band. Both of these bands have made some really dark music, but I do not think of them as goths. They sure have a lot of “GOTH” fans though. and I think andrew is an asshole for pissing all over his fans like he does. But in the end, I could care less. I still love this era of music he helped to create.

My favorite song on this LP is probably Marian. And then Black Planet. In all seriousness? This LP has let me count. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 yeah, 5 solid HITS. and the rest of the tracks are AA. This is one of those classic LPS like the Sex Pistols Nevermind the Bullocks. I know for a fact that the sisters of mercy inspired man forms of music, from all the goths, to metal heads like Metallica. Buy now! Click Here to Buy First and Last and Always on CD.
