Music Finally, an entire forum devoted to talking about Doktor Avalanche, the drum machine for the Sisters of Mercy. You can talk about other bands, or other members of that band, too, if you want to be UNCOOL.

Yep. Well I like pretty much everything they've done since they stopped the growling vocals.

They did growling vocals? I've only heard their newer stuff lol. I don't think theyd sound very good with growled vocals.

Their growling shit was just that, shit. But, I admit to liking their newer material. Much nicer in my opinion, and makes the songs considerably more enjoyable.

Too bad Theatre of Tragedy's newer stuff couldn't have been as decent. I don't like the industrial turn they've taken, ever since Liv Kristine skipped out on them for her band, Leaves' Eyes. But, ah well, the cogs keep turning.

Their new stuff sounds like radio-ready pop rock. Can't believe they used to play death-doom.

If it's radio-ready pop-rock it's easily the best around at the moment.

I love all the albums (including Dance of December Souls & Brave Muder Day) up to 'Viva Emptiness' which was ok, but not as class as 'Last Fair Deal'. The new album is not my cup of tea at all, so I have pretty much given up on this once great band.

I preferred Viva Emptiness to Last Fair Deal. And the new album seemed alright to me. At least the stuff I have off it is good.
