Sisters of Mercy "First, and Last, and Always" LP

Audiophile vinyl, Limited / numbered. 

First, Last, and Always is the only album featuring the band’s original line up and has more of a harder edge. Just about every song of the album is a classic and instantly catchy. While all of the band’s albums are essential First, Last, and Always is their masterpiece.

The template for all goth-rock records that followed, Sisters of Mercy's First and Last and Always stands as one of the – if not the most – influential albums of its kind ever released. Distinguished by Andrew Eldritch's ghostly singing, which gives the impression of hearing a forlorn ghoul croon from a foggy English graveyard, the 1985 set is drenched in gloom, claustrophobia, black humor, and dance-ready beats that provide exhilarating contrasts.
