Happy birthday Andrew Eldritch, lead singer of UK goth band The Sisters of Mercy-- a name derived from a Leonard Cohen song and a logo straight out of Gray's Anatomy. They've been on strike since 1994, although they've done some live shows since then. Their debut album, First and Last and Always came out in 1985 and included "Walk Away," which had already been released as a single 5 months earlier.
