Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Vision Thing' finds Andrew Eldritch steering The Sisters of Mercy into a decidedly heavier, more guitar-driven hard rock sound. The album is an incredibly energetic and rhythmic gothic rock classic, replacing their earlier ethereal darkness with politically charged, highly melodic anthems driven by the drum machine 'Doktor Avalanche'.
