Sinister: Yes it is...
by Sarah 27 Jul '98

27 Jul '98

...a very fine version of a Design For Life I'm listening to. Sounds more poignant and less "anthemic"....very nice.... Wish I knew where it came from. Restrained keys instead of those soaring strings....fuck this is beautiful! keyboards remind me of Loneliness of a Middle Distance Runner while we are on about B&S before I get yelled at to shut up. If anyone vaguely recogises this description could you tell me if you know where this recording is from? Wow! It's followed by... Slash'n'Burn?! Oh fuck this is spoiling my mood.... Yey - 3 Belle and Sebastian fans on the list :) I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!! Sarah ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Hello! Mr Suity Man Adrian wrote for his subject line... "Fake plastic Northys". DOESN'T THAT SCARE YOU AS TO MR EVANS'S PASSTIMES????? As for Boards of Canada, I dunno anything about them! Wayhey! And as for loking stuff up on the internet - heres my situation - 10 minutes to look at 2 sites, and then it crashed. WAH!! Tis not fair! Are they scary? Homer from Drugstore (DOH!) was talking to scary Scottish dude in Action about them I remember.... but then I had to go and be a Pop Photographer and dismantle a record store to take photos of his Lig-ness himself, John while he was schmoozin' wit da band.... The Boy With the Arab Strap. I think it should either be : Cock Fun OR!!! SOCK FUN!!! With a inlay of the band playing with sock puppets! Brilliant! Yeah! Pippets are they brilliant, cos they arent like real actors and they can DO more stuff, cos actors like smell and stuff don't they! Heheeheh! Yeah it can be a concept album on socks....

Sinister: Matador Records Update
by Ivo A P Escossia 27 Jul '98

27 Jul '98

Matador Records Wrote: The forthcoming BELLE AND SEBASTIAN full-length has a title now, "The Boy with the Arab Strap." We expect to get a lot of flack for this, but it was entirely the band's decision. We gave them SEVERAL options for titles and this one was the one they chose. ("Stop, Look, Run On"; "Can't Fight the Cat Power"; or "Go Buy the New Solex Record" didn't have the right ring). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- "Go Buy the New Solex Record" ? I liked this title. :o) Ivo A P Escossia escossia(a)electus.com.br

Sinister: did I get it right?
by LoonyLiz＠aol.com 26 Jul '98

26 Jul '98

I feel so silly, my first attempt at posting a message here and I sent it straight to the listowner instead of the list. So I sincerely hope that this time it goes where it's supposed too...I would hate to make the same mistake twice :) This is my first time posting to Sinister, although I have been on the list (digest form for anybody who's interested) for about two months. I finally felt like being brave and introducing myself...so here I am. My name is Elisabeth. I'm 16 and I live in California (that would be in the United States for those of you who don't know) Is this sounding too much like a singles ad? "I enjoy candlelit dinners and long walks on the beach..."heehee :) Hmmm. That's all I have to say really. I enjoy reading what all of you lovely people have to write to eachother, but I have to admit that you can be sort of intimidating to a person like me. Half of the time I have no idea what you're talking about, but I'm still very entertained by what goes on. I would really, really love to be accepted. I don't really fear that you won't accept me, but I am new, and many of you seem to have some special friendships going on, so I feel a bit like an intruder. I hope I haven't scared you yet. Thank you very much :) Oh, and for some Belle and Sebastian content, well, "Me and the Major" is neat-o :) Love and lollipops, Elisabeth =o) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Re: Sinister: It's such a cliche, it's hurting my brain,...
by PKHINTZ＠aol.com 26 Jul '98

<<I'm becoming a sinister cliche. Last night I watched Gregory's Girl, and today I went shopping and bought, wait for it...a Nick Drake compilation, an Orange Juice 7", and a V-Twin 7". I didn't mean for it to turn out this way, I need help.>> I would not fear becoming a cliche. . . unless you rode a bus to the shop to buy those records, while wearing flares, and spotted a fox (in the snow preferably, despite the time of year). <<I'm just curious which OJ single you bought and how much it cost you.>> Polydor in the UK recently reissued and remasted the Orange Juice albums on CD with extra tracks. Granted your friend goes to a record shop, they should have no problems locating the albums. (Unless you are looking for the real deal original issue. . . ) I believe Postcard reissued the singles not too long ago also. (I may be wrong on that last one--blame the headache from my summer cold.) Living and loving Matthew ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
