Sisters Of Mercy have announced their only UK headline shows of 2017, set to take place at London's Roundhouse on September 1 and 2.

The band have played only a small number of UK gigs in recent years so these gigs will offer fans a rare chance to catch them play. You can get tickets for the shows when they go on sale this Friday (March 24) here.

Ahead of that, you can get yourselves suitably psyched up by reading our interview with the band's Andrew Eldritch, as well as The Mekons' Jon Langford and others, about the Leeds post punk scene and the early years of the Sisters Of Mercy. You can find that here.
