The Sisters Of Mercy – Floodland (Vinil 140g, LP)

In the mid-1980s, Andrew Eldritch was the last remaining member of The Sisters Of Mercy. After various departures and kick-outs, only the drum machine Boss DR 55, also known as Doctor Avalanche, faithfully stood by the side of the eccentric singer. In 1987, Eldritch signed bassist Patricia Morrison and released the superbly produced „Floodland,” an epic album of its time.

Remastering by Krieg Wunderlich for the Mobile Fidelity Silver Series emphasizes the superb dynamics and extended spaciousness of the Jim Steinman production, best known for his collaboration with Meat Loaf. „This Corrosion,” arguably the Sisters’ best-known hit, sounds downright breathtaking. The 140g vinyl LP is released in limited edition with consecutive serial number.

Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab Silver Label

Under the product name Silver Label, MFSL has been releasing a new series of LPs since early 2011. These are remastered and cut at Mobile Fidelity on the mastering chain designed by Tim de Paravicini and pressed on 140g vinyl at RTI in Los Angeles. The packaging meets the same high standards as the well-known Original Master Recording series with a lined rice paper inner sleeve, a protective intermediate sleeve and a sequential serial number on the outer cover. Mobile Fidelity is planning a series of experimental releases as well and is willing to make do with a copy of the master tape in this series if the original tape cannot be provided. All LPs will be released as limited editions and are likely to become sought-after collector’s items.
