Short for "The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence." The Sisters are a world-wide order of 21st Century, queer nuns who serve the LGBTQ and other marginalized communities. The members of the all-volunteer organization, after an extensive training process, take lifelong vows in service of the community. Namely, to promulgate universal joy, expiate stigmatic guilt, and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. They accomplish their vows in countless ways, but the most common are through progressive, social activism, street theater, and non-denominational ministry without judgement. They also raise thousands, upon thousands of dollars each year which they grant out to those in need. www.thesisters.org
Hey, The Sisters are hosting Easter In The Park in GG Park again this year. The theme is "WTF Mary? Hunky Jesus, Take The Wheel." You wanna go with me? I bet you'd win the Hunky Jesus contest!

Get the The Sisters mug.The Sisters of Mercy are a Post-Punk and Goth Rock band fronted by the somewhat arrogant Andrew Eldritch, who is now the only original member left in the band.
While Eldritch often bitches about how the band is not "Goth Rock", it is considered by almost all who are educated on the subject to be one of the greatest first generation Goth Rock bands.
They made two good albums: First And Last And Always and Floodland. Then, most likely in an attempt to sever all connections with the "goth" label, Eldritch made the hard-rock piece of crap that is Vision Thing (Ribbons being the only decent song).
Their two compilation albums, Some Girls Wander By Mistake and A Slight Case of Overbombing (their Greatest Hits), are both fun listens.
The band is also known for their somewhat cryptic lyrics.
Their sound is similar to that of Fields of the Nephilim, Big Electric Cat, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, and even some Joy Division songs.
The other members of the band created the bands Ghost Dance and The Mission (known in the USA as The Mission UK), both of which were decent bands.
The most popular Sisters of Mercy song is Lucretia My Reflection.
