Did anyone see the Century of Fakers video on MTVs alternative nation? If so does anyone know what it's about? or maybe it's just meant to be surreal. I thought that the sign language and Karaoke effect were a nice touch. Oh yeah, it's just occured to me that "stars of track and field" could be a song about my life. See, when I was at school you were either good at sport or you were no-one. THis is basically what Stuart is lamenting isn't it? I may have got this wrong though. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

(cos I am) I saw him in Paris and that was fantastic. I love JACK too. "Pioneer Soundtrack" is a magnificent album and I would recommend it to everyone on this list. JACK made my year in 96, just like BELLE & SEBASTIAN did in 1997. Both bands release a new album in 1998 and I can't wait to hear them ! (JACK's one will be called "The Jazz Age", I think...) Elle est pas belle la vie ?!??? 1998 is gonna be MAGNIFIQUE ! Anne (Creme Anglaise fanzine) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: music to cry to
by suchgranddesigns＠juno.com 14 Jan '98

14 Jan '98

hello peeps, last night my best friend called me, horribly upset and sobbing over an argument she had with someone she really cares about. and about halfway through the conversation i was listening to her tell me about it when there was a quiet bit where she was trying to catch her breath and suddenly i noticed "...but if you're feeling sinister, go off and see your minister..." playing away in the background! i had bought IYFS for her birthday just a week ago, and though i felt really bad that she was so upset, i couldn't help but smile silently. altogether now: awwwww... jillian. xx ps: do you have the brand of jeans called JNCOs in britain? cos i was just trying to imagine wee chris's flares and i came up with a strange (and perhaps slightly disturbing) image of him in those outrageously wide JNCOs. i've never had the pleasure of seeing wee chris, but from his name i would imagine that his whole body could fit into one leg of those jeans. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: well's review
by Nrbqlover 14 Jan '98

14 Jan '98

i'm a little overwhelmed at how everyone is taking steve wells' review of the band. so he slagged them off-so what? for those of you who want B&S to forever remain "indie", his review could help dissuade the "masses" from buying into our gang. for those(like me) who want this band to succeed beyond all expectations, it's further proof that the band's decision to ignore the press is the right way to go. i mean wells should eat shit and die but it's not gonna stop me from preaching to the uninitiated(latest convert:friday night dinner companion, ex-guitarist with early eighties la punk band the flyboys, who called me yesterday after buying IYFS and ALL THREE EP'S desperate for a "Tigermilk" tape.) We can do this ourselves-we don't need some p.r.-humping illiterate rock scribe to help!! clem lane nrbqlover(a)aol.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

We still have 120 Minutes, though, but unfortunately instead of playing the kinds of video's they used to play in the eighties (rare gems like "Aikea-Guinea" or even an occasional Smiths video) they stick with "safer" ones like O****s, N* D***t and B**h (which they play 24/7 anyway - so why reserve this special time?) instead of (upcoming darlings!) like Belle and Sebastian or Magnetic Fields (do the MF's even have videos?) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: i dunno, couldn't think of one
by Richard Banner 14 Jan '98

14 Jan '98

I saw the video for 'Century of Fakers' last night on MTV's Alternative Nation, it was pretty mad...what i want to know is... ..How many vids have the band now made??? and when they do appear is it possible to have advance warning?? Oh and on that NME review of the gigs its really not worth worrying about. For a long time i've done nothing but slag off the likes of NME and Melody Maker(thought i'd put them in as well)and i will continue to do so. How the hell these papers sell is beyond me. Pure pants Rich ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .
