{"product_id":"sisters-of-mercy-floodland","title":"Sisters Of Mercy - Floodland","description":"Sisters Of Mercy: Andrew Eldritch (vocals, guitar, keyboards, programming); Patricia Morrison (vocals, guitar, keyboards).\nProducers: Andrew Eldritch, Larry Alexander, Jim Steinman.\nEngineers: Larry Alexander, Roy Neave, Andrew Eldritch.\nLong before Trent Reznor brought his brand of densely textured, hard-hitting Goth rock to the world, The Sisters Of Mercy were creating the mould with albums such as FLOODLAND. Here, front man Andrew Eldritch and company mix styles with a dark and gloomy palette. Songs are built with punishing and\/or danceable drum machine tracks, guitars that alternately moan and crash, touches of '80s keyboards, and Eldritch's deeply resonant, undertaker voice, for a sound that made the Sisters one of the leading lights of the '80s Goth movement.\n\"Dominion\/Mother Russia,\" the album's opener, presages industrial goth with its epic, thunderous rhythm track, wiry guitar lines and a chorus that treads that fine line between dance pop and death metal. Especially notable here is the inclusion of the band's best known single \"This Corrosion,\" a multi-layered goth-pop gem held together by a eerie back-up choir and a driving dance beat. Though the stylistic focus of the album varies from the chilling piano balladry of \"1959,\" to the battering ram, chamber-of-horrors hypnosis of \"Lucretia My Reflection,\" FLOODLAND is probably the band's most cohesive and accessible album.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/19\/2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sisters Of Mercy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51547768062183,"sku":"58SMSO-TAVH-ZK","price":43.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/sisters-of-mercy-floodland_ea0wT.jpg?v=1762917505","url":"https:\/\/www.normandierecords.com\/products\/sisters-of-mercy-floodland","provider":"Normandie Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
