This takes me back! When I grew up in Sweden. I remember that someone had sprayed "Sisters of Mercy" in pink. I grew up in a goth-influenced area, to this music. "This is the final floorshow"!
that does it: time to buy some girls wander by mistake. thought i`d be happy with first&last... & floodland, but having listened to alice as well today... nice one :)
You can't beat Sisters and March Violets (and to a lesser extent, the Cocteaus) for using drum machines to their best by not trying to emulate real drummers!
A vicious drum beat that kicks its way out of the speakers and mugs everyone in a 30 mile radius. Powerful lyrics that are infinitely more expressive than the crude junk labels serve these days. Riffs that chainsaw their way through your skull then perform brain surgery. It has to be one of the best songs of theirs I've ever heard. I love it.
My Dad's and my fave song from our fave band. Getting that logo ^ tattooed on my shoulder in his memory :)

Some of the lyrics are influenced by T.S Eliiot's poem "The Wasteland".
"White bodies naked on the low damp ground"
"At the violet hour (to the violent sound)".
Thought I'd share this in case it leads anyone else a greater insight into Sisters of Mercy lyrics / The Wasteland.
