Andrew Eldritch (born 1959), frontman, singer, songwriter and the only remaining original member of The Sisters of Mercy
Portrait of the Abyss Within is the fifth album by Eldritch, released in 2004.
For the same reason Andrew and Mat split from the band and were replaced by Oleg Smirnoff at keyboards (ex Eldritch) and Matteo Amoroso at drums (ex Athena).
Aside from these conflicts, the game focuses on other factions, such as ancient cults like the Esoteric Order of Dagon that are running amok across the planet and the eldritch horrors that are rising to destroy the world as, according to the prophecies of the Cthulhu Mythos, the "stars are right" and the Great Old Ones and their servitors are returning/reawakening to reclaim the Earth.
During an interview in Ahlen on 8 September, Eldritch said the release had been postponed to the beginning of the next year.

After returning to the UK, Eldritch wrote a new song called "Wide Receiver", which was inspired by a term in American Football and which he recorded on his own at home as a demo.
In 2007 he released the Nineteen Ninety Five and Nowhere album, with material originally written by him in 1995 for The Sisters of Mercy, at the invitation of Andrew Eldritch.
The 1988 song Lucretia My Reflection by the English goth rock band The Sisters of Mercy off their Floodland album was written by band vocalist Andrew Eldritch for band mate Patricia Morrison, in which he speaks "she always strikes me as a Lucretia Borgia-type person".
Hussey and Adams, who like Eldritch remained under contract with WEA Records, booked some studio time at Slaughterhouse Recording Studios in Driffield at the end of October 1985, recorded a four-song demo tape, and set up a new band.
