Sinister: Live, from the castle of Aargh...
by Jordi Trenzano i Vilar 23 Sep '99

Hi, sinisterland: IŽm translating "the Story of Sebastian" (the comic) to spanish, and IŽd like to know if anyone from the spanish community or mr.Miller (or Starry Sarah,) can give me the right translation for "candyfloss flavour" (I donŽt trust the dictionary one). In spanish, the comic looks gorgeous, even though my handwriting is terrible. Nice to see that thereŽs more spanish people on the list. I was beginning to think that the italians were beating us. Of course, it doesnŽt happen in football... I agree that the most appropiate album for introducing yourself to the Smiths is "Hatful of hollow", even though "The queen is dead" is much better. I know that itŽs not related to this, but I must recommend strongly the first Cane 141 album. Along with "The boy..." (I must be the only one who thinks that is the best B&S album), SuedeŽs "Dog man star", "Ladies and gentlemen..." and IYFS is one of the best albums of the decade. Finally, a question for the next year: Is it worth spending four months of your life studying in Leeds ? ================================================== Jordiet ================================================== Tu E-Mail Gratis en http://www.mixmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Re: Sinister: 69 dog parks!

I've been waiting to write about how ecstatic I am about the new Magnetic Fields. I like it more each time I listen, so my logic was to wait until I couldn't possibly love it any more before I posted, thus sparing y'all day-by-day song-by-song posts. Can't describe how good it is. What relief that Stephin Merritt's eyes weren't bigger than his stomach, if that computes. It's not unlike that Sinister thread a while back about everyone's theories on love. It was fascinating because everyone feels differently, but equal ferventness (word?), and I found bits of empathy and comfort and wisdom in most of them, which is exactly what 69 Love Songs is like. It's Merritt's vision but it's like an intimate conversation because even though it's so vast,it's so detailed. --Jennifer ps I'm thrilled to bits that the Kids in the Hall are finally, maybe off the oil slick that is their post-Kids career. Yay Bruce! Did anybody else see "Dick" solely because of him? +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: The Smiths
by Mark Niciu 23 Sep '99

23 Sep '99

Howdy, I agree with Mike that someone new to the Smiths should begin with the self-titled album, but "Hateful of Hollow" seems like the next advisable addition to the beginner Mozian. To me, "Hateful of Hollow" is their best album (it contains the first of several repeats of my favorite Smiths song "How Soon Is Now?") and represents an excellent synopsis of their singles from the pre-1984 period. And, in my mind, this timer frame represents their best work. Just be aware that many songs are repeated in typical Smiths fashion on "The Smiths" and "Hateful of Hollow," e.g. "Hand in Glove," "Still Ill" (albeit it is a different version on "Hateful of Hollow"). Better off playin' with himself, Mark ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: "We ride roller-coasters into the ocean"
by Boneboy54＠aol.com 22 Sep '99

22 Sep '99

I am eager to see the list compiled by Miss Laura... The new Stereolab album is enchanting! I highly recommend it to all listees. It is a completely realized work, possibly their finest since 'Transient Random Noise Bursts With Announcements.' A must have for those chilly autumn nights... As for Neutral Milk Hotel- phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both albums are incredible...The 'Everything Is' ep is also tremendous. There is nothing like seeing them live, Julian cross bones style playing the singing saw, sweat dripping down it's silvery blade! Jeff's voice is a gift from the heavens. The Olivia Tremor Control are also amazing. As well as Apples in Stereo, Elf Power and Of Montreal. All fall under the Elephant Six collectively... Pretty hot shit if you ask me. And they are super cool chaps! When NMH and EP played the Middle East in Boston, we hung out with them and my dear friend wound up sharing her bed with Andrew, the lead singer of EP. We were also treated to a ride in their Winnebago, where Laura and Jeff made us some tea! Turns out that they wound up parking the Winnie in my friends driveway out on Long Island...close to where Julians Grandmamma lives...It was a a surreal experience...I mean here is this band that we listen to incessantly, know all the lyrics and such. And then we find ourselves sipping herbed tea and such... What a pleasure to find that people who you really admire from afar can turn out to be intelligent, down to earth and friendly individuals. I highly doubt this is your typical Rock Star behavior... That was my rant for the month... Best to all, theallamericanBone +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: Sarcasm- the lowest form of wit
by Curtis Heath 22 Sep '99

22 Sep '99

I've just had a Sinister picnic in my closet, and I want to take this time and write to all of you who showed up. It was great, we drank and drank and drank... just like the football players in high school used to brag about... "Dude we got soooo wasted." I really respected those guys. All that beer... and all the hot sex. Then I threw up all over myself... (It was sooo cool.) And then I spent the night at my house, in my own bed, and I had sex with me. The music was amazing, (acoustics are great in my closet.) And I was amazing on the dance floor. A little nervous at first, but, after a few drinks, I looked damn good in the full-length mirror that hangs on the inside of my closet door. So anyway, you're all invited next time. We might have to do it somewhere else though, my closet's just a tad stuffy. Oh, and a word about those damn townies... Let's restrict our bigotry to bigots. Have Fun!!!

Sinister: you're everywhere and nowhere baby!!
by ian 22 Sep '99

22 Sep '99

(yes, jeff beck. its a wolverhampton thing) hullo...its me.. i think... yes..two lines into the mail and i'm incoherent already. well, it seems that nothing much changes... its been a right funny few days and no mistake... i return from london to find a strange message on my answering machine..a suppressed whine, followed by a half-screamed phrase and then a gurgle. after a few listens, we decided the phrase was "help me". on subsequent plays, it sounded more like "hold me". well, what the buggery bollocks am i supposed to do with that sort of message? i can't go out holding everyone i meet, just incase, can i? i asked some people at the bus stop this morning if they had been leaving messages on my machine, and if they wanted me to hold them. a lot of them moved away, muttering things about viagra.. so i've decided i'm just going to hold certain people and hope that one of them is the mystery speaker. and if it seems coincidental that they're all sweet faced young lads then i'm afraid thats one of the mysterious ways of the universe... oh...that wasn't what i meant to say at all. from where i'm sitting, rain, falling against the lonely appartment has set my mind to nonsense.. so.. i had a fun weekend. big hugs to jim taylor for agreeing to put up three virtual strangers, i remember meeting lots of groovy people, although i wish you hadn't all been so blurred. sorry to anyone i dribbled on excessively. lucy, yes i'm afraid you did introduce your rabbit to all and sundry. what is worse, you encouraged me to do the same. okay, i didn't need all that much encouragement. strange that i'm more willing to go up to someone, shove a yellow rabbit in their face and say "have you met horace?" than i am to go up and say "hello, i'm ian"... so, onto other things...last night i met my stalker. i keep telling him to go away, back to liz hurley and andie macdowell and that little flat in notting hill but it seems that my words fall on deaf ears. he is even now leaning on a lampost at the corner of the street, flicking a cigarette lighter nonchalantly and eyeing my window from under a fedora hat. i've told him i have no intention of covering him in sunpat crunchy and allowing my cats to lick it off, i've told him i'm not into stilettoes, and even if i was, i wouldn't agree to put them THERE... no response. what should i do? it seems that the attractions of hollywood are nothing compared to the lights of oaklands road.. oh...that wasn't what i meant to say at all.. pete said the following: >Mr. James Herriot again. I thought for a short while of trying >to apologise for my previously drunken behaviour at the Saint Trinians >night, but I didn't, for one reason. Have you any idea how hard it is >to keep a straight face when you're sitting next to someone who: >a) is dead, dead, famous >b) met you last when you had "SLUT" written in lipstick on your >forehead, and >c) has been seen by Ian having rampant anal sex with an Orang-utan?? actually, it was three orang utans, a milk float, and rolf harris. i didn't want to watch but i found myself unable to look away. and all i'm saying was...rolf was bottom.. you'd never have guessed what that man can do with his beard. (and no, i'm not talking about the one on his face) Georgie said: LOVE AND WOLVERHAMPTON TOWN wolverhampton town? are you actually from the fair isle of wolvo? and is there anyone else out there from the west mids? Rob opined: >Finally, list crush. Do you know what it's like to never have been even thought of as a >suggestion for a half baked nomination on the list crush site? Can you imagine such a >thing? The anguish? The ignominy poor rob. i too have been overlooked. it seems, my friend, that we are mere whispers in the thrash metal concerto that is the story of sinister. what should we do about this? something occurrs to me...to become famous in these parts you have to have a clever name. "ian" has always served marvellously, until now. but how can it compete with the likes of "paula cullen booze explosion" and "carsmile steve"...? i suddenly feel inadequate in my lack of syllables...what to be done? i am even now trying to think of a dastardly clever name..but so far, i have only come up with the following: ianianianianian (not tres exciting) IANIANIANIANIAN (a bit loud) zaleoalaoieanian (kinda exotic...yeah!) suddenly i feel tired. i think i've typed too many capitals. so..three letters no more....me and my new identity are off to bed.. zaleoalaoieanian ---------------------------- "monsieur, i am a countess. i demand to be chained to a nicer wall" +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

>Anyway, apologies for being quite hideously drunk almost permanently, >and thanks to everyone, but especially huge thanks to Sez, Tim, Stevie>and >Nick for putting me up and for putting up with me Were you really that drunk? Was it you that stayed at my house? Were you the floppy red hair and the beautiful fingernails? See, I have no idea, Im still hung over four nights later, ooooeeeuurggh, it was a bad idea all that picnic virgin congregation y'know, (well, all three of us, one of which wasn't even a virgin, you little prostitute Mr Steve) Well no actually it was a very good thing, as is not taking anything to put the wine in so you think its a beer bottle and swig it all down very very rapidly. Excruciatingly rapidly. Which was great, and the Spread Eagle was great, unfortunately I dont remember much Tigerbashing bercause I had drunk it rather too quickly. No actually I think that was Steve at the Spread Eagle "Do you want a drink?" "No I'll fall over" "OK" "Actually, no Steve can I change my mind, a pint of vodka please". Blame it all on you, yeah, makes me feel better. Anyway, I got quite ill then, and I know I stood on my glasses, or someone did, so I dont know if they still were on my head at the time, I had a very large headache the next day:-( And I lost my purse, so Steve and you(?) had to pay for the taxi home, then I went to the loo and found Id stored it in my knickers:-( Its OK, last time I stored my camera in my bra. I stored my purse in there once and a lovely women I never met called a cab and gave me twenty quid and her address to get me home:-) So, for anyone I didnt shout and scream at and attack, Im sorry, Im the one with her camera in her bra, her purse in her knickers, a pint of vodka down her front and a glazed look in her eyes. Oh and apparantly I fell asleep at Tigermilking according to Steve, but I dont remember this. I was having no nice and cool dreams, I was searching under tables for my purse, and my knickers. So sorry for that. But it was great to meet people, Steve, Craig, Alasdair, Juicy Lucy, archel, Nick, and anyone else I met, especially before I injected the vodka down my throat and fell asleep.

Sinister: Re: sinister-digest V3 #318
by Nicola Goodchild 22 Sep '99

22 Sep '99

>Anyway, apologies for being quite hideously drunk almost permanently, >and thanks to everyone, but especially huge thanks to Sez, Tim, Stevie>and >Nick for putting me up and for putting up with me Were you really that drunk? Was it you that stayed at my house? Were you the floppy red hair and the beautiful fingernails? See, I have no idea, Im still hung over four nights later, ooooeeeuurggh, it was a bad idea all that picnic virgin congregation y'know, (well, all three of us, one of which wasn't even a virgin, you little prostitute Mr Steve) Well no actually it was a very good thing, as is not taking anything to put the wine in so you think its a beer bottle and swig it all down very very rapidly. Excruciatingly rapidly. Which was great, and the Spread Eagle was great, unfortunately I dont remember much Tigerbashing bercause I had drunk it rather too quickly. No actually I think that was Steve at the Spread Eagle "Do you want a drink?" "No I'll fall over" "OK" "Actually, no Steve can I change my mind, a pint of vodka please". Blame it all on you, yeah, makes me feel better. Anyway, I got quite ill then, and I know I stood on my glasses, or someone did, so I dont know if they still were on my head at the time, I had a very large headache the next day:-( And I lost my purse, so Steve and you(?) had to pay for the taxi home, then I went to the loo and found Id stored it in my knickers:-( Its OK, last time I stored my camera in my bra. I stored my purse in there once and a lovely women I never met called a cab and gave me twenty quid and her address to get me home:-) So, for anyone I didnt shout and scream at and attack, Im sorry, Im the one with her camera in her bra, her purse in her knickers, a pint of vodka down her front and a glazed look in her eyes. Oh and apparantly I fell asleep at Tigermilking according to Steve, but I dont remember this. I was having no nice and cool dreams, I was searching under tables for my purse, and my knickers. So sorry for that. But it was great to meet people, Steve, Craig, Alasdair, Juicy Lucy, archel, Nick, and anyone else I met, especially before I injected the vodka down my throat and fell asleep. Nicx and to Joe>Brooker for being a genius and still humouring me by playing REM songs>for me to (very badly) sing. > >The Foxgloves rule. English goats are great. That's all. > >Love, >Alasdair xx > >PS You haven't lived until you've tasted Pam Berry's banana bread. And >all she got in return was a silly badge.
