Info: “The thrash of Motörhead. The mechanized anxiety of Suicide. The poignancy
of Leonard Cohen. The arrogance of Bowie. The Sisters Of Mercy combined it all to
create an unforgettable noise. From 1980 to 1985 lead singer and master strategist
Andrew Eldritch maneuvered The Sisters Of Mercy from the grimy pubs and student
unions of Northern England to London’s storied Royal Albert Hall. Then the whole thing
fell apart. Based on original research and a thorough reading of hundreds of interviews,
articles and reviews, ‘Waiting For Another War’ is a chronicle of The Sisters Of Mercy’s
brilliant years from ‘The Damage Done’ to First And Last And Always.”

Louder Than War interviewed writer Trevor Wistow. Read it all here.
