Description
The first phase of The Sisters of Mercy came to an end when the band broke up soon after touring their 1985 debut First and Last and Always. Undaunted, the group’s founder and frontman Andrew Eldritch continued to make music, aided by his ever faithful drum machine Doktor Avalanche. The Sisters of Mercy came back stronger than ever in 1987 with their second album, Floodland, an even bigger commercial and artistic breakthrough. The second incarnation of The Sisters — which featured bassist Patricia Morrison — explored new sonic avenues on Floodland. The tone was still dark and brooding, but now the guitars shared space with keyboards and the rich orchestrations of producer Jim Steinman (Meat Loaf) on tracks like This Corrosion and Dominion/Mother Russia. When the album was released in November 1987, it climbed the charts in the UK where it reached the Top Ten.
Along with the studio album, this comprehensive new box set includes a trio of 12” singles from that era: This Corrosion, Dominion and Lucretia My Reflection. A must for any collector!
