I downloaded the song "Temple of Love" by Sister of Mercy (1993)... it's lovely song. I think I'll get all their old albums.
Someone know this song and this "gothic/dark" band?

Yeah they were the best thing around at the time, really simple drum machine and gothic guitar. There's an album with all their old EPs on it that's good.
If you want gothic/dark and punk with an old drum machine try downloading a couple by a band called BIG BLACK, fantastic...

i'd recommend "a slight case of overbombing" which is the best of cd
other top cd's are "floodlands" and "vision thing" and for bootlegs "temple of rarities" vol 1 and 2 are good

I was once a hardcore "Sisters" fan,before they locked me up. I'd highly recommend the cd's "First and last and Always",and "Some Girls Wander by Mistake"(sort of singles,b-sides etc).Then Jim Steinman (writes most of "Meatloafs" stuff),got involved,and the whole thing went downhill. The 12" of "This Corrosion" is also pretty good.Cheers. }:>

I like "Temple of Love" new version with vocalist Ofra Haza.
It's a pity that they closed their band.
