Sinister: the cleontele
by keith mclachlan 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

i don't think i like the way the clientele pronounce their own name, it sounds more like the cleontele on their website. it seems to me i am always posting about what i don't like apologies for that then. but thankfully the cleontele record comes out on the day after my birthday though my girlfriend claims she is going to hold out until our trip to london this christmas before forking over the substantial import dollars. i bet she is unable to kep that promise. i am watching the good son and i can't get my head around the idea of macauley culkin as the incarnation of evil, if he had been in the omen perhaps i would not have been stricken by it so. i have something to say about neil hannon but i am not allowed. the college station here continues to play radiohead's 'idioteque' and it sounds for all the world like thom yorke pressed the demo button on his casio sk-l and imitated rufus the dog barking. what a putz. the whole tortoise/chicago axis is a scourge, parading their tunelessness around with their heads raised high. wow macauley just said the f-word, is he really simulating the kama sutra on stage? how scary must that be, i am still working to recover from his serial killer poses in that sonic youth video yet he was enough to distract me from the song which was nice. how exciting that bob stanley is trying to get the free design to produce the next st etienne album. i hope ian masters releases a record soon so that march records can stop with the strange comparisons of the one chord warblers i live the life of a movie star secret hideout to ian. keith m i love the tangents website, it warms my heart. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: mmmm Cake.... oh yeah, and the Sea too....
by Brier Random 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

If any Sininster brothers & sisters in Southern/Central California (are there any?) are going to hear The Sea & Cake in San Luis, once again look for the post-birthday boy, once again in the low-ass boot-cut jeans, this time with a t-shirt that says "You think it's like this but really it's like this". Walk up & buy me a drink please, i'm a dollar short. Thanks. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: a little black fox with a lotta love
by julesmarkham 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

hey sinister people, the black fox fables are going well, and if anyone missed that last post, the all-new anthology of black fox fables book, 'raindogs', is still available. Stuffed full of stories, illustrations and half-assed hope for the low, low price of £2/$3/chocolate bars. just mail me offlist, and I'll let you know how to get a copy. Well the improbable and unlikely has finally happened, I have met a wonderful, sweet, fluffy, shiny and altogether gorgeous guy who doesn't think I'm a weird-ass ginger chaos monkey, and I'm not so much falling as plummeting in love here! It's kinda scary, but at the same time exciting, like when you're on a fairground ride and your stomach starts demonstrating it's new-found ability to twist itself into a reef knot! I'll be doing the most mundane, boring thing at work, and find myself thinking about the fine, dark hairs on his wrists, the shape of his fingers, tiny little details I didn't even know I'd noticed. He's a yellow fox and his name is karma, but he says he doesn't believe in karma, I don't either, but I do believe in hope. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: snow
by Rebecka popgirl 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

Today the first snow arrived here. I took my bike from the libabry and it was like huge wool bits in the air. Looking out my window now the trees have gone all white and in the time of just an hour. It's pretty amazing. When winter time it's always good to listen to Belle. I mean fox in the snow need I say more?:) I spend all autumn longing for a warmer place but now I'm happy to be here. Snow is better than rain and it makes the cold a bit lighter up here in the mountains. i bet it will rain away by christmas to return in january it has a habit of doing that in Sweden.Atleast where I've lived. I've just had my eyes ona group that I hadn't noticed before called: Tahiti 80 very poppy sound makes me happy here in winter wonderland. Hope all my old bellepicnicsfriends in london and all over are doing fine.. hope too see you again some day hugs Rebecka psst made a new look to my old page: http://travel.to/blondie _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Sinister: halloweenies
by Simiansurvival＠aol.com 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

hello peoples great stuff... last night my girlfriend bought me the new Zelda game for N64 and i have been the most obsessive geek all day. it's like the "Groundhog Day" of video games... if only you could play as bill murray... at work today people were talking about halloween costumes... i doubt i'll go trick or treating considering i'm a diabetic and also considering there are nothing but pubs and taverns in my neighborhood... but i was thinking about what i would be for halloween anyway. i'm either going to be stephin merritt (magnetic fields), or ?uestlove from the roots. ?uestlove is the most simultaneously adorable and ass-shakingly funky man on the planet. stephin merritt is the second. i was looking at merchandise for the Crocketts (my girlfriend's sister does their official website), and i saw a t-shirt they had that was designed to look like the classic Motorhead design with the huge biker skull. i wsh B&S would make some shirts like that just for laughs... i would love it, and i'm sure others would equally enjoy fronting as an old school metal fan. bah... i am in the hugest mag fields mode lately. holiday has been playing non-stop, and i am determined to do a cover of "strange powers". i hope one day someone actually goes through with doing 69 Love Songs as the cabaret revue it was meant to be. surely there are enough Sinister Mag Fields fans out there to do it. okuywneiuywcaeoniuoirwqynb sorry i'm getting restless. it's about 2 am and i am not tired at all. fucking hell. steeeeeam boats goodnight i am going insane. actually i think i just need another soda. i now make like a tree and get outta here bye like mcfly, mike j +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Southern USA Sadboys and girls
by COURTOLY＠aol.com 28 Oct '00

Hello my dears. After six months of mourning I found my copy of Boy With the Arab Strap tucked away near the motor of my CD changer. When my car is fixed next week I will be leaving Washinton State and driving through San Francisco, Las Vegas, Lubbock TX, Memphis, and then Athens GA where I will relocate for the sunshine and vegetables. Could I possibly cross paths with any of you?

Sinister: We Still Prey
by Laura Llew 28 Oct '00

28 Oct '00

Trick or Treat! Really, I shouldn't give you the choice since the last thing I need is a repuation for turning tricks. (Actually, with as dull as my personal life is that might be exactly what I need. My journal has turned into valium in print.) Yesterday, I was in # Sinister and asked that kittenmouse radio, Angelic Andrea, what she was going as for Halloween. Her Reply? "Nothing." Nothing!! Can you imagine that? She said that she didn't have enough time to come up with something creative. Oh the shame! The problem is is that almost everyone I ask says the same thing. (Of course, I haven't asked Chris Lampien - who I'm sure will be undressing this year for Halloween -- and every other day.) Being the helpful lass I am, I have come up with a classic Laura Llew List to help you with all of your last minute Halloween Costume Ideas. Break it down for me boyz! Laura Llew's Lovely List Of La La La (hey, I didn't want to ruin my alliteration) 5. Safety pin a couple of random socks and a dryer sheet or two to your shirt. Ta- Da: You are STATIC CLING. Minimal effort and yet you look clever. 4. This one I like because I get to bring my parasole because if you go as a DENNY'S CUSTOMER anything goes. Of course, it is hard to fake nicotine stained teeth. I was reading the Belle and Sebastian Top Ten Lists and someone listed Dennys as a good place to people watch. They said, "My uncle once refused to go to Denny's because it was not three A.M. and he wasn't drunk. I think that says it all." And I do too. 3. For the ladies: roll yourself in flour and go as a BATTERED WOMAN. Ouch! Don't hit me; It was Brier's idea. 2. Dress up like a beauty queen except you'll be the QUEEN OF BROCCOLI. A broccoli tiara, broccoli boquet, and don't forget - the broccoli in your teeth. And Laura Llew's Number One Suggestion For A Last Minute Halloween Costume is: Go as a Mormon Missionary. When trick or treating, people will actually open the door! You refuse the candy but invite yourself in and talk about the church. Then you can say, "No thank you, Sir, you save the candy and I'll save your soul." Now, I'm sure you are all wondering/downing the prozac like poptarts in hopes that it will MAKE IT STOP MAKE IT ALL STOP/curious as to what I'm going as for Halloween. Depsite the fact that I've been compared with Ally Sheedy two times in a very short time period, I will not be going as everyones favorite member of the Breakfast Club. I am going to be BRIER RANDOM. More specifically Brier in his picture on the get phreaky sinister page. (http://www.missprint.org/sinister/people/Brier.html) Yes! I'm getting my hair cut and then am going to spend hours fixing it to have that "I haven't brushed it yet" look. I'll dress in all black and I've already been practicing on looking pouty and petulant. (What you think looking fashionably depressed is EASY?) I already have the halloween day conversations worked out in my head: Prosaic Person: What are you dressed up as? me: *sighs and then languidly answers* I AM Brier Random. Prosaic Person: What's a Brier Random? me: "To be is to do." Prosaic Person: Huh? me: *pointedly stares at them as if they're an idiot and then sulks off to read Camus* Oh, how I'm looking forward to it so! Don't you wish you could be Brier too? Tough. You can't. It was my idea first. However, you can wish the bashful Brier a happy birthday since today is the celebration of his day o' birth. He's a blushing beauty so I won't reveal his age. (Though I'm told he is a thirsty one). I will attest to his greatness though. I saw on the Auction how he has a piece of his mail art for bid. I can tell you from personal experience that he is hilariously creative at that. (Plus, he has great lips.) However, I would be careful about stealing his ideas and using them as an art project for a stupid college class in fear that the teacher might call you 'edgy' and then you'll have to knock down her stupid little display while explaining to her that you are quite EVEN TEMPERED thankyouverymuch. Um, yes, HappyHappyBirthday to Brilliant Brier! AND Happy Halloween to everyone! Laura 'meeting all of your laura llew needs since 1977' PS - Literary Lisa (go virginia woolf! RAH!) from the Lisa & Lee duo told me that she had a literary party and one of her friends dressed up as Dorothy Parker - complete with a flask inside her beaded 20s purse! You know I was loving that idea. PPS - If Belle and Sebastian had been thinking about anyone except for themselves and yuletide spirits, they would have put out a cover of a classic Halloween song or at least something frightening and spooky like either Sarah or Isobel writing an entry in the band's diary so I could have fit in some content in this post. However, once again they can't ever think about how what they might do might effect Laura Llew. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Sinister: (χωρίς θέμα)
by Joan of Dark 27 Oct '00

...When you were eighteen didn't YOU ever want to create something beautiful and pure ? Just so one day you could set it on fire and then watch the city light up as it burned?? Didn't you want to do that every day of your life? nothing should be forever Bands should do a single and then split up. Fanzines finish after one flawless issue. Lovers kiss goodbye and leave in the rain at 5 am and never meet again. Habit and fear of change are the worst reasons for ever doing ANYTHING I want to burn in bright coloursand go POP!! to be giddy impulsive and silly % ) to kiss people in new places................................ EXQUISITELY And DARE to tear things apart. The first act of revolution is destruction. And the first thing to destroy is the past. SCARY... Like f a l l i n g in L O V E.....................
