Iconic rock legends The Sisters of Mercy have announced two special headline concerts at London’s Camden Roundhouse on Friday 17 and Saturday 18 September 2027. The historic venue will play host to Andrew Eldritch and company as they return to the capital for a pair of high-impact performances.
Formed in Leeds in 1980, The Sisters of Mercy have spent over four decades defining, defying, and leading underground music. Drawing early inspiration from classic influences like David Bowie, Slade, and The Velvet Underground, the group forged a singular sound by fusing punk-psychedelia, metal elements, and driving dance beats with Eldritch's signature guttural vocals.
The band achieved global mainstream success with their 1987 landmark album Floodland, which spawned defining anthems including "Dominion," "Lucretia My Reflection," and the epic ten-minute opus "This Corrosion." They followed it with 1990’s harder-edged Vision Thing, cementing a legacy that has influenced generations of alternative, goth, and industrial artists worldwide.
While The Sisters of Mercy famously stepped away from traditional record label releases after the 1990s, their live output and songwriting have remained intensely active. Recent tours have debuted a wealth of new material that reflects the dark energy of their three classic LPs while pushing into modern sonic territory, adhering strictly to the band's core ethos of moving "ever forward."
Recent live reviews have praised the current touring lineup as the band’s strongest in years. Frontman Andrew Eldritch is joined onstage by guitarists Ben Christo, Kai, and Chris Catalyst, anchored by the group's legendary drum machine, Doktor Avalanche. Paired with a spectacular cinematic lighting design, the upcoming Roundhouse shows promise an immersive setlist featuring massive chart hits, fan-favourite deep cuts, and newly penned tracks.
Tickets for both Camden Roundhouse dates go on general sale on Friday 6 November 2026 via MyTicket.
