Sinister: IYFS nomination on 120 mins
by Christopher ~N~ Oram 03 Aug '98

03 Aug '98

Did any other US listees see Harvey Danger, the band with that annoyingly contagious song getting constant airplay on US radio and MTV, nominate their three current on-the-road albums for listening pleasure, on 120 mins ? If you didn't, IYFS was one, which knocked me over. Also, Neil Finn's new one and Pavement's 'Slanted & Enchanted'. Amazing how such a small gesture as that of above can drastically alter the perception of a band. No longer do I think of them as a typical try-hard band, but actually vaguely entertaining. Any comments ? Night all ! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

Sinister: Red Roses For Meeeeeeeee
by Steve Genge 02 Aug '98

02 Aug '98

In the style of that seminal summer holiday kids TV show "Why Don't You?" a small probably Irish child turns to face the screen. "And if you're really bored & frankly can't be arsed to make a go-kart out of a shoe box & a roller skate howabout wasting ten minutes or so looking at the all new, longer in the pipeline then the new Elastica album, Red Roses For Me fanzine at" http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Cabaret/9043 "where you'll find badly punctuated pieces on amongst others, Belle & Sebastian, Hopkirk & Lee, The Pernice Brothers, Griffin & Sabine, Blackbox Recorder & The Lucksmiths written by some fool from Portsmouth & Ms Amanda "swannie" Bergman. Plus you also get to see a raunchy picture of the authors together" Small child winks knowingly at camera...... "Alternatively stay here as next up we have an interesting film about someone's collection of pencil tops" "Pain and beauty, our constant bedfellows" Sabine Strohem steve(a)seahorses.demon.co.uk Red Roses For Me Fanzine & Records For Sale http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Cabaret/9043/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

They're not much like B&S really. At all. But I think they're good. I like the lp 'breaking god's heart'. Anyway, I can't describe it. But they're not like B&S. But you still might like them. I do. Whatever. Stuart M did something on the record. Someone said it was a mighty organ or something. In the sleevenotes, which I am sure are meant to be like an Ink Polaroid, they say: "Stuart Murdoch also managed to pop by and lend his hands." and then "thanks to........Richard from B+S (who lent us drum parts)" So there you go. My question: does anyone know where the Marcus Garvey centre is in Nottingham? lots of love, jon g.

Re: Sinister: B&S in club
by Ihamilt＠aol.com 02 Aug '98

The best song by Belle and Sebastian to dance to is of course the wondrous Lazy Line Painter Jane. This is played every 2 weeks at the Attic in Irvine in Ayrshire (every 2 weeks becuase they have a strange alternate Dj system and one of them wont play it.) Tonight only 3 of us danced to it, but ive seen the dance floor packed with Hooch filled kids frugging frantically. And its absolutely impossible to avoid joining in on the hand claps. ALso this same DJ always plays 2 Morrissey songs a night, and not jsut the obvious ones. So if any of you are ever in Ayrshire, and are stuck on a saturday night, pay it a visit. Im the fat bloke with the quiff. Bye popkids Iain ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

Sinister: B&S in club

Hey Mick, You wrote: > Hm...I just had a really funny thought. Can anyone imagine B&S being >played in a club? How could you dance to it? If they did play it, what >would they play? "Sleep Around the Clock"? A dance remix of something, >perhaps? (hehe) I've heard B&S in the club you referred to earlier in your message, Popscene. In fact, I was there two nights ago (the club is popscene on thursday nights only) and they played Dylan in the Movies. People don't, however, dance to it since the DJ plays it, or has played it on the two occasions I've been there, at around 10:45 or so when the club is relatively empty and no one really dances. I wish either they played it later, or I had the nerve to dance on an empty dance floor.

Sinister: sinister: hitch
by BCapirigi＠aol.com 01 Aug '98

01 Aug '98

ok, i remember reading somewhere that everything in alfred hitchcock's movie marnie was some sort of freudian sexual symbol (seriously, im not pulling this out of my bum). the color red, the flowers, and the horse, which is supposed to represent masculinity or something like that. anyway, when marnie offs folio, it shows her totally breaking free of men (or maybe women... im a little confused lately)... so i suppose judy was into, you know, arab straps and whatnot... matt ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list.

hello, i'm new to the sinister list. im a little hungry at the moment and edward sissor hands is on tv, so i wont bother with an introduction at the moment [do ya'll care what i like and am like anyway?] anyways, this band Hefner; id been hearing about how good thy are on the pavement mailing list [which ive just left cause it's so bitchy right now- :. i joind this list] and now i hear on here that stuart m is in the band- on the record. so the question is, are they realy that good? how do they rate with B&S? simillar? different? while im at it, i have "if yr feeling sinister" and "lazy line painter jane", and im wondering which ep people think i should get next: my fave songs are seeing other people and like dylan in the movies if that helps to inform yr decision. oh, and im from toronto canada. love with a fever, dagmar alexander.

Sinister: the first and the last and the happy
by Stuart 01 Aug '98

01 Aug '98

Well, I have been been subscribing to this list for about two weeks now and I thought it only polite to make some sort of an introduction........ I'm christine and am a mere (or hefty depending on your view) 21 years old and am living in smoggy Bristol right now, but 2 out of three of these facts are certain to change in at least the next twelve months. The *first* Belle and Sebastian song I ever heard was 'Judy and her dream of horses' about two years ago. My boyfriend had heard some stuff on the radio and bought the album. This was shortly followed by me walking in when he was listening to it and getting excited and squeaky. B&S then became one of the more romantic aspects of our relationship along with castles, trees, hot air balloons and our life. So when I started nosing around for info about any gigs and stuff, I was delighted to stumble across this list and even more delighted to get tickets for myself and Richard on the 7th in London. I would imagine that there are quite a few of you going and it would be good to meet some of you. I always find it quite odd to meet people who have heard any B&S stuff, let alone get quite enthusiastic about it. The *last* time I heard B&S was at The Zone,a club in Swansea. They played 'me and the major'. If anyone knows how dark and scarey the Zone is, you might understand how excited we got. Has anyone ever heard them in an even more unexpected place???? Apart from Richard and B&S, I also like, Labyrinth, Audrey Hepburn, Caramel Shortcake, cats and the sea. I like other stuff too, but this is all I would like people to generalise about! Anyway, I hope this hasn't been too dull and pathetic to read, I just get a bit too passionate about the things I like. But I'd like to know what sort of people are on this list....... love and logs, Christine ( and not stuart who owns this email account) >----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
