The Mission was music group based in the city of Leeds in England. The group was originally established in the year 1986, but they had an on-off music career, splitting up in the year 1996. They re grouped once in 1999, but split for the second time in the year 2008. The band specialises in the gothic rock genre of music, and they have recorded with several top music labels the likes of SPV, Cooking Vinyl records, Playground recordings, Vertigo records, Mercury records, Nightracks, Equator records, Cleopatra records and Received records. The band has also had associations with other artists such as Dead or Alive, Artery, The Sisters of Mercy, and Red Lorry Yellow Lorry.

 

The origin of the Mission music band was in the form of another band named The Sisterhood. One of the original members of the band was Andrew Eldritch, who did not feel that the band was suited for Sisters of Mercy songs, which they had been playing then. Soon they began changing their music style, and the name of The Mission was coined by Wayne Hussey, because of his childhood days, hen his parents wanted him to join a missionary. The band dug up several of the old Sisterhood music which had been rejected by Eldritch, and used it to start off The Mission recordings. They were signed up a label called the Chapter 22 records, and released a set of two indie music singles under the new band name.
