The Sisters of Mercy - Vision Thing (Vinyl LP | EU Original | 1990)

The Sisters of Mercy – Vision Thing is the third and final studio album by The Sisters of Mercy, released on 22 October 1990 on Merciful Release. Heavier and more guitar-driven than its predecessors, it pairs Andrew Eldritch's sardonic lyrics with hard-edged gothic rock – featuring "More", "Doctor Jeep" and the title track. On offer is the 1990 EU original pressing (MR 449 L) with original inner sleeve.
