The The Sisters Of Mercy's second album was titled Floodland.
Floodland and its accompanying singles This Corrosion, Dominion
and Lucretia were preceded by a Merciful Release press statement,
which can be found under A Short History.
The album was also accompanied by videos for This Corrosion,
Sandstorm/Dominion, Lucretia and 1959.
In 1989, the video compilation Shot was released featuring all these vids.
