Wayne Hussey was the replacement guitarist for Ben Gunn in The Sisters Of Mercy. He previously played with Pauline Murray & the Invisible Girls

and was part of Dead or Alive for two years. Frustrated by the lack of guitar-work and seeing most of his writing being put through a sequencer, Hussey left in August 1983.

The following month he joined The Sisters of Mercy and made his debut in Birmingham April 1984.


Both him and Craig Adams went on to form The Mission after the initial sessions for a new album with Eldritch didn't work out.

Hussey left first and Adams followed. With material dating back as far as 1981, the two set to work in the Slaughterhouse studios in Driffield.

During his time with the Sisters, Wayne played an Aria Pro II guitar which became characteristic for its sound at the time.
