Sinister: mmmmm..filth!

So just as I leaned over the egde of my crib to spout about the lack of perversion on this list I'm proven gloriously wrong! Lucy, there had been a lack of filth but I'm sure there will be plenty of Dick Slapping fun all round, it would be even more fun if I knew someone called Judy, but hey. My boredom is being slightly alleviated by two people having a fight via forwards. She showed everyone her pink bits down at the pub, he is apparently lousy in bed, she has an ugly mother and I'm wondering if they realise they are hitting 'reply all'. I don't know either of them but I get a little update every few hours...I think he's winning.

Sinister: I'm afraid of the dark without you close to me
by Mark Casarotto 23 Mar '00

Lucy wrote "you got a big, long one out of me yesterday". Advances in surgery these days, eh? No longer do you have to live in pain after those embarrassing, ahem, accidents. Michele - Ben Dover was interviewed about 7 years ago on Eurotrash (I think), and he has quite an amazing job. He's a 40-something cockney wide boy who doesn't take himself too seriously, and he seems to spend all his time going "ooh, gawd, I've never felt anything so wet!". I believe (though obviously I wouldn't know) he still does a show on one of Britain's premier filth channels, even though they don't have anything explicit on them (good old British reserve). I just wrote something bitchy about a list member, AND MY COMPUTER CENSORED IT OUT. Woo. There is supposed to be a ghost in this office, but it doesn't usually manifest itself at five past nine in the morning. Still, it has touched the company secretary (missus) and has great fun with the lights. Hmm, I'm alone up here. Erm, just going for some fresh air... God I hope Judy...doesn't fail to deliver. It'll have to be pretty special to get away with such a TERRIBLE name. And I think Winter Whoopie Cushion is a poor song. And it's a bit evil of Cheapster to get us to shell out for two versions of the same song - d'you think one will have naughty words in it so they had to release the edit to get on Heart FM? Looking forward to the Armand Van Helden remixes of "Boy done wrong again" on the next single... I shall practise my dick slapping in preparation for the next sinister picnic. Anyone fancy a sword fight? Oh yes - in the off chance I haven't thanked Steady Mike profusely enough for the absolutely superb-welded-to-my-car-stereo Magnetic Fields tape he made me, thank you thank you thank you, especially for 100,000 Fireflies which is my favourite song of the century so far. Ta! Even when I was 17, Melody Maker was far more interesting and experimental than the NME, which lapped up Britpop until it drowned in Richard Fucking Ashcroft's sputum (and anyone who tells you Verve="soul" are talking out of their rectum) (and don't get me started on fucking Embrace). The Neil Kulkarni and Everett True years were MM its peak, even though every single article he ever wrote dissed Warwick University, the bastard. MM used to make efforts to review bands who didn't fit in with the scene, who couldn't pull crowds in double figures at the Camden Falcon, who didn't need to be fashionable. I don't know who first spotted B&S among the inkies - I don't suppose it really matters, because they'd both pretty much lost it by then - but I'm definitely throwing my hat on the Maker's side of the fence (?). Lucy asked me to drown the list with smut, but it seems the only smut is at her expense. That'll learn her...

Sinister: Wow! Another post!

I just noticed in today's digest a blurb about a VW commercial. The first time I heard it, I though, "hmm, this sounds like Belle and Sebastian." Is this true? I'm sure this has been hit heavily on the list before; if anybody wants to e-mail me privately to fill me in as to any intersting info, such as song title, it would be greatly appreciated. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The Post of Obligatory Firstness
by mattwardfhnn＠hotmail.com 23 Mar '00

23 Mar '00

Ah. Finally. A voice. Anyway, I'm here, finally, after soaking up digests for a while. I found my way to B&S last August after a little band name dropping going on over at the Ben Folds Five list. So I was going to buy a They Might Be Giants album at Hastings, when I saw "Arab Strap." Hmm. This might be good. I'll buy it. So anyway, in addition to some old favorites like Ben Folds Five, U2, Weezer, and Dave Matthews Band, my current big things are Built to Spill, Radiohead, and Spacehog. Not to play the "I'm cool, look at the bands I like" game, just thought I'd give you kids an idea of who I am/where I'm coming from. Speaking of which, I come from Baylor <Baptist> University in Waco, Texas. I'm doing the comp sci/biology thing, and I'm a freshman. I'm into computers and music, both listening to it, and playing it--I play the horn. So that's who I am, I look forward to being in this terribly interesting list! +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Happy birthday to me
by Pelican303＠aol.com 23 Mar '00

23 Mar '00

Well, none of you punks wrote to wish me a happy birthday...but I guess I'll deal...I don't think I've written any of you on your birthdays. However, that tape Laura sent me a bit ago didn't arrive until today, so I'm sure she had it delayed to arrive on my birthday. Thanks for caring...almost enough for my crush vote ;) (Carolina's in the Sweet Sixteen... REPRESENTIN!!) What is it about NCAA basketball that turns big nerds who normally don't give a rat's ass about sports into obsessive lunatics who can spout stats like noones business? So I am very very upset with this entire list. I have recieved absolutly no responses about what can be done when you rearrange the letters of the new album title. I mean, I worked hard and provided what I consider to be important insights into the collective psyche of our fav kids. And what do you guys do?? Just sit around on your fat butts, not even trying to help out. *sigh* Oh well...I guess I forgive you all. I can't believe I've gotten this far without saying dick slap. I did think of a way that dick slap might be a little bit more twee than vulgar. *clears throat and prepares for dramatic reading* See Dick. See Dick run. See Dick get violent. See dick slap. To whomever asked, I play a bit of mandolin. I haven't for a bit...too damn frustrating. But I have a good grasp on how the damned thing works (I'm a pretty decenet guitarist, if I do say so myself...which I obviously do). OKay kids....be good...and I do accept belated presents.

Sinister: LLPJ burning up the charts!
by Chris Heil 23 Mar '00

23 Mar '00

I saw yesterday someone mention that N.Drake's pink moon was at number 9 on the amazon selling chart...the way too blue album was on the cdnow charts as well. That's weird how one VW commercial could make a records' sales jump...and most likely from people who wanna hear that one song and don't give a crap about Nick Drake. It's depressing..everyone look for N.Drake cds at their local used cd stores soon. I wish my friends were like the kids in that ad..they probrably would of left me in the car and ran off to the party, without even a "thanks for the ride". But then again..I would actually have a new car..oh well. By the way, the Lazy Line Painter Jane box set was number 12 on the cdnow alternative selling list..that is somewhat encouraging. And I'm a huge beach boys fan, if anyone could help me out with a copy of 'The Beach Boys Today' album it would be greatly appreciated and compensated. bye bye all.....

I could hear it through the door as well when I was waiting outside in line and he kept singing "peacock, peacock," unless I'm horribly mistaken. Then I'll be embarassed, but it would still make for a grate story about misheard lyrics. chad said: << Are there any Beach Boy fans on the list? Am I a hopeless listener if I think Carl Wilson and company are great? I know they are a little (make that a lot) more American than most bands people worship on this list. Just thought I'd throw that in, I just felt an absence of their work. >> My dad let me borrow his copy of Pet Sounds a few months ago and now I'm a fan, much to his happy surprise since he thinks everything I like is crap, naturally. But so far that's the only one I really like, Wild Honey and Smiley Smile aren't as catchy although that vegetable song floors me. Parents are so strange though, my dad likes IYFS a lot. He actually let the entire album play during dinner and didn't even mind naughty references which made me cringe to hear them in the same room with him. About the new single. I was just wondering why the single isn't from flappyclap. At least I don't see Legal Man on the tracklist. But I'm not complaining. Last year Judy was a frumpy schoolgirl and now she's a dick slap? Next time she'll be on Jerry Springer. That ain't twee!

Sinister: sooo bored.....
by RythSoul＠aol.com 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

i'm almost positive i need to get out more. perhaps if i had a car, or a license, maybe a permit. yes, i think that would help my situation. as of ten minutes ago i have entered the dull and aimlessly wandering stage of my day where i haven't anything to do, so i come here and begin my search for something to make the minutes tick by a little bit faster. i have to say, i am surprised by the feedback i received from my first post. i never imagined someone would actually respond to what i had to say... not that i haven't seen it done before, but mostly because i'm not all that interesting and i probably wouldn't respond to what i have to say either. thanks for those of you who did, lifted my spirits a bit. i've been in need of a lot of spirit lifting lately. and to be honest, i'm not completely sure why. my daily dose of belle and sebastian always makes me feel better though. my rotation of music has been a bit ecclectic the past few days, but then again so have my moods. oh, this is an incredibly dull post, i don't know why i bother. oh wait a minute, i remember now, because i am so BORED I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!! i need to get a job, or a hobby, or a man....but i think i need to leave the house in order to get any of those. so looks like i'm stuck here with my good friend, the television. even my t.v. has had it with me i suspect. nothing good is ever on, perhaps i will watch the jerk for the hundredth time this week. later kids- lissa +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: bubble bubble bubble...
by brand new shoes 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

as you can see i am bubbling with curiosity... WHY? you ask... i got a new crush vote!!! two now!!??!!! is this a prank? it's making me crazy! i'm checking my email like a million times every day! ohhhh!! i know i can't ask who they are... but give hints... okay? i'm bad enough at this in real life... grrrrrrrr. at least i can't do the normal crush thing of wandering around hoping to run into people or sitting around in public places waiting to be found. argh! (that is a very pirate-ee sound) hmm, i'm sorry, this is lame. forget the hint thing. that's a wack thing to ask for i'll just wallow in the muck of ignorance for a while longer. ***sigh**** anyway it is very pretty today and my afternoon class was cancelled, so i got to drive out to a thrift store playing Tigermilk loudly, though it drew rather intimidating looks from a group of youths on a corner. they were just too tough deal... is b+s not tough music? what about "...if i kill him now, well who's going to miss him?" that sounds tough, "a knife on a bike chain.." very tough "i was moved to kick the crutches from my crippled friend" come on, this is a band you don't want to cross! maybe we are just so tough, that we don't have to wrap up in a hoodie made of mean sounding thump music. because from what i've read here... sinister folks are not folks you want to mess with. yeah! i got your backs! (arms crossed w/ sunglasses, looking very very tough indeed) (maybe we aren't really tough, and neither is b+s, but who likes tough guys anyway? no one! that's who.) anyway i found (at the store) an old Velvet Underground (andy warhol) record, and some black cloth to make into a dress/costume for my friend meesha. made me very happy. a guess a tough guy wouldn't be excite about find fabric at a thrift store either, damn. plus Honey is back which makes everything better.

Sinister: Another Commercial
by Stealth Squirrel 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

So, I did see the Nick Drake Cabrio Car commercial. It was a somewhat disheartening thing. I mean, I can't disparage it too much, it was done well. And who of us hasn't loved listening to Nick Drake outside late at night? Whether it be at a busstop or in a car. I just didn't think that anyone who could afford a fancy new car would listen to Nick Drake. Ah, but the commercial certainly was targeting people like us. Anyway, following the VW commercial was an IMAC home video commercial. It featured two playful kids jumping on a bed, etc. Now my question is, who did that song? It's driving me crazy. I know it's a contemporary of Nick Drake and I want to say Richard Thompson but I am thinking that he's too late. Can anyone help?
