Perhaps it’s the rain but Britain has produced its fair share of darkly-hued pop groups. From Black Sabbath to Bauhaus, The Cure through to Echo and The Bunnymen and Radiohead, we’re a nation obsessed with gloom. During the 1980s, one band that truly embodied this mood was The Sisters Of Mercy. Fronted by Andrew Eldritch, their only consistent member, the group in their original incarnation mixed loud guitars, dry ice and seriously danceable moodiness to thrilling effect on tracks like "Temple of Love", "Alice" and "No Time to Cry". But it wouldn’t be until 1987’s Floodland, its ridiculously overblown lead single as well as "Lucretia My Reflection" that they proved that goth in inverted commas could indeed assault Top of the Pops. Here they faced off against their former bandmates Wayne Huseey and Craig Adams, now called The Mission and their single "Wasteland". This is New British Canon and this is the story of “This Corrosion.”
