During my dark youth, I was very big fan of The Sisters Of Mercy’s 1981/88 era (« Floodland » included). At UPR we have always hesitated to pay tribute to this cult band from Leeds/UK, because it always seemed difficult to me to interpret the fabulous songs of the british acid rock gang, without falling into the ‘gothic cliché’ or poor copycat. But 40 years after the band's first concert in the north of England it's high time to pay them a true artistic ambitious homage. With the well-known requirement that is that of our label, we prepared an awesome CD compilation called 'HONORIS II THE SISTERS OF MERCY & THE SISTERHOOD' for the end of September. This Tribute will be accompanied by a very special limited tape and book designed & printed by the spanish label Industrial Complexx (Valencia). For vinyl collectors, know that the Oràculo label (Barcelona) is releasing also a vinyl version with 6 tracks taken from our compilation (12" + 7"), including an unreleased one. Many excellent musicians responded to our call, some legendary bands and talented outsider. There are already many international tributes to The Sisters Of Mercy, but by my standards they often sound pretty mediocre and below the original songs. My objective is therefore to bring together very awesome covers that will give thanks to the legacy of the original Andrew Eldritch’s songs, without caricatures or baroque clichés (fans know that Andrew hates the “goth” label), and by focusing especially on the early songs and B faces.The Sisters Of Mercy began their careers 40 years ago. Long life to Andrew Eldritch!

Bonus Tape Vol. 2

Corps Brillants

Premiere: Laura Krieg - "Corps Brillants" [Miseria]

The first single off the new album "Chrysalis"

Zanias - Simulation

The creation of ‘Chrysalis’ was a retreat from a seemingly
endless string of unfortunate events, a cocoon from which
Zanias could weave hope from hopelessness. In each of
its eight songs she has engineered unique worlds to
express alternate facets of the modern human experience,
from burnout and the toxicity of capitalism to processing
death and the inherent isolation of personal trauma.

Written and recorded between Berlin and the rainforest of
Queensland, Australia, the sound design of ‘Chrysalis’
reflects the rich biodiversity of the latter environment,
where she drew much of her inspiration. Her voice shifts
and morphs into ghostly, alien forms between catchy
hooks that plant this album firmly in the ‘pop’ genre,
without losing the underground rawness and lyrical depth
for which she is known.

With her third full-length album, Zanias is expressing her
truest form thus far, fusing her seemingly discordant
influences into a genre-defying electronic artpop, as dark
and evocative as it is ethereal and uplifting.

Burial

"Only for my satisfaction" I wrote and recorded in 2002 the first time. Here it is again: recorded live in my studio almost 15 years later (2016). A similar version is going to be released on Discos Atonics in summer 2018.

Beta Evers - Only for my satisfaction (live)

From a state of psychedelic-induced ego death, through painful revelations and onward into a realm of new desires, these four very personal tracks are the direct result of the artist's own therapeutic process of self-exploration and expression undertaken during a tumultuous year of change. Utilising decidedly minimal instrumentation as the backdrop to the emotional weight of the voice and words, each song represents an individual step within an exhausting but ultimately affirmative transformation.
