On Wednesday night, legendary band The Sisters of Mercy returned to the US to kick off their first stateside tour in nearly 15 years. Playing to a full house at the Fillmore Silver Springs outside of Washington, D.C., the band performed a 23-song set, featuring 10 previously unreleased tunes. Watch videos of the ceremony and check out the full list below.
The Sisters opened with the new song “Don’t Drive On Ice,” and it featured some of her classic hits, like “Lucretia My Reflection,” “Temple of Love,” “More,” “Dominion,” and more. New Songs, meanwhile, showcases songwriter Andrew Eldritch’s recent creative output, and the fact that despite not having released an album since 1990, he’s still in the writing game.
The 19-date tour will next stop at the Sick New World Festival this weekend in Las Vegas, which will also feature System of a Down, Korn, Deftones and more. After that, the band will hit some West Coast dates, travel across the middle of the country through Texas, tour east coast stops, and finish up in Denver, Colorado on June 9th. Tickets for the rest of the dates are available here.
