SISTERS OF MERCY: ’Alive/Floorshow’ (Merciful Release)
One of this week’s surprises. Supremely intense and disturbingly demonic, this double-A-sided package is nonetheless ‘rockier’ than you might expect. ’Floorshow’ is the definite standout, an unsettling traditional sub-HM rhythm supplemented by bizarre ’slow-slow-quick-quick-slow’ dancestep instructions and various contorted cries of disruption and despair.
’Alice’ is rather more obviously JD-derived, but it remains broodin compelling, with vocals reminiscent of Peter Hammill gargling with the remains of a shattered car windscreen. I await the upcoming Winston Smith feature with interest.
