Having witnessed his bandmates leave, singer Andrew Eldritch recruited bassist Patricia Morrison, utilized a groundbreaking drum machine, and hooked up with Meat Loaf collaborator Jim Steinman to attain a glorious, bombastic, and irrepressible marriage of gothic rock and sumptuous balladry.\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Arial;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Arial;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMastered on Mobile Fidelity’s world-renowned mastering system and pressed at RTI, this Silver Label LP improves the record’s splendid dynamic contrasts, low-end thrust, expansive dimensionality, and moody atmospherics. Steinman’s unforgettable sonic contributions finally receive proper due in the form of towering choruses and operatic heft. The group’s signature epic “The Corrosion,” described by Eldritch as a narrative about “power in the face of misery,” sounds downright staggering, with an awe-inspiring performance by the New York Chorale Society and blooming classicism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThroughout, the Sisters of Mercy traverse myriad styles in breaking down goth-rock conventions. As on the band’s noisier debut \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFirst and Last and Always\u003c\/em\u003e, also available on Silver Series LP, brooding emotions, nocturnal episodes, and dim sentiments gloss over the songwriting. Yet there’s a colossal amplification of evocative spirituality, delicate accents and anthemic riffs that combine with funky drum-machine beats and visceral tension to yield music that dares listeners not to dance and\/or lift their hands skyward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRhythms play as large a role as the leader’s trademark stentorian vocals, with thundering grooves and crashing percussion illuminating incisive lyrics and industrial-tinted scenery. Whether felt via the dramatic waves of “Lucretia My Reflection,” balladic sweep of “1959,” or charging protest of “Dominion\/Mother Russia,” \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFloodland\u003c\/em\u003e is a touchstone, topped off by iconic cover art that fits in with today’s vampire-obsessed society as well as it did upon release in 1987.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Sisters of Mercy \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFloodland \u003c\/em\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDominion\/Mother Russia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFlood I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLucretia My Reflection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1959\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis Corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFlood II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDriven Like the Snow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNever Land (A Fragment)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e Shop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Music Direct","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43395928555610,"sku":"821797100212","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/6107\/2986\/files\/LMFS021__29388.jpg?v=1779267554","url":"https:\/\/qbrxip-ki.myshopify.com\/products\/sisters-of-mercy-floodland-mofi","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
