Sinister: Single
by The Fragrant World Of Princess Honey 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

Yep I'm back from Nude York and very nudey it was too! I'm now convinced everyone in NY is lovely and loves all God's little animals - you were all so kind and we had a great time. Props to Michele for being a fabulous NY taxi driver ("blow it out your ass!") and to Matt and Brian and Megan and Julie and Damon and Ree and Jared and Laurel and Ben and the scary man in the lift for making our stay all comfy and funpacked, and to Swannie and Steve for giving us the excuse to go in the first place. Oh God I've forgotten someone haven't I? And to Starry for being the perfect englishwoman abroad to accompany us on our travels. We should've brought parasols and done the whole trip like a Helena Bonham Carter film, smiling tnd whispering about the odd endearing little habits of "the colonials". Their Milky Ways are really Mars Bars you know! etc. To the point: Mick's updated the band's WWW site with details of the band's single, which will be out the day after, or the day before (I can't remember which) Neil the B&S manager's birthday, so you should all send him flowers. Here's what it says on Mick's spiffing WWW site: New Single A new single, 'Legal Man', will be released in the UK on the 22nd May, 2000. The tracklistings are as follows: 7" vinyl Legal Man, Winter Wooskie 12" vinyl Legal Man, Judy is a Dick Slap (extended) CD Legal Man, Judy is a Dick Slap, Winter Wooskie I have NOT made that up. Judy is apparently a "Dick Slap", and an extended one at that - twee as fuck huh? :) Searching for "dick slap" on http://www.alltheweb.com gives you 68 results, all of which look rude and scary to me, so I'm not clicking on them, but maybe someone else could volunteer to analyse and break them down for us? Maybe the B-side should've been called "It's Illegal, Man". Adrian congratulations! Call him "Richard Slap" or if it's a girl, "Judy D'Slap". As always, I have a stack of photos and stuff like stories to do, as long as my arm, which is notoriously long, so you'll all have to forgive me because I will be some time at it. Those slightly cheeky monkeys who took advantageous of my list mummy awayness to send unauthorised material of a suspect kind to the list just about got away with it, but rest assured List Mummy is back and discipline will be reinforced, and yea, she comes with the sword of vengeance and the breastplate of "please could you stop that now?". Remember folks, you get the list you make. If you don't like it, send in stuff you do like. Go on, don't be afraid to be high-brow. Dick slap indeed, Honey xx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: solid gold
by Jeanette 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

Howdy, y'all. Is it true that our beloved music-makers have achieved their first gold album in the UK? I heard today that TBWTAS went gold, but I've been waiting for one of you Brit-types to confirm the news. Has some thoughtful soul already mentioned this, and I just missed it?

Sinister: November Spawned a Monster in the Shape of this Child....
by vibrosheep＠junglemail.net 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

Who's ya Daddy ? I'm ya F***ing Daddy !!! Yes folks, this years fireworks/bonfire night promises not to be such a big bang, but more of damp squelch as the most offensive little lamb on this beloved list becomes a daddy for the first time. I don't get to read your inane ramblings too often these days, but I'm sure they're just as sweet as they always were. If you wish to send me recommendations for names that will get him/her beaten up regularly at school, feel free - but I'm taking a long step back from Sinister for a bit. You're all very eatable.

Sinister: epigones of the epic
by P F 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

march hares, march hares, Like that promo impressario a-go-go Stevie T, I have been struck by the return of the Reynolds girls to the list. I would like to make further contributions - to charity, Shields, and of course this discussion. Arantxa said, roughly: SR accurately predicted that being demure and humble would become underground; ie that hedonism was no longer radical in a spendspendspend world. I think she - and thus he - are about right. But this could be an excuse for wallowing in static, pallid, woolly idleness; in which case I'm even more in favour of it. She then went off on one about grunge. Another character also said that if you didn't like Nirvana in 92, you weren't fully together, or something similar. I'm afraid I can't quite agree with that. I like (some) Nirvana, too, and agree that some people have been keen to write them out of history; but in 1991, when the folks above me were playing 'Teen Spirit' every five minutes, I detested them. (I detested Nirvana too.) It took me years to get what was good (so it seemed to me) out of the band: a) their ability to produce good old-fashioned catchy pop melodies, and b) the unusual character of many of those melodies, and chord sequences (so not so old-fashioned after all). I'd still stick up for 'About A Girl', 'Lithium', 'Drain You', etc - but not for the self-indulgent studio noisemaking that feels like a hangover from the worse kinds of 'adolescence'. So: yes, it's good to appreciate Nirvana, if appreciating Nirvana is your thing; but you didn't have to do it in 1992. Some folk weren't even born in 1992. What future for them? Arantxa also said that Britpop was the illegitimate child of indie pop - which I think is rather well put. But 'not that close in musical sources and forms'? Surely a resounding yes and no. No: that Kinks / Small Faces / glamracket thing doesn't strike me as having been a big influence on 80s indie pop, little enough that I know of it. Then again, you could draw lines from C86 to the Roses (so Stevie T tells me) to Blur ('we've killed baggy!' - and everything else) or Oasis (so Liam G tells us), or from Marr to Gallagher N (so he tells us, with the guitars to prove it), or from JAMC-MBV to... Perhaps most won't find this plausible. I'm just saying that as history rolls on, it leaves traces, and one thing has a way of bleeding into another. Stevie T said that 'Against Health and Efficiency' was cultural-studies-sociological rather than 'formalist' or, shall we say, ecstatic. He's right. He said that SR should reread the piece himself. I think he's right. ST added that 'the unclassifiable beauty of melody is just as radical as the most jouissant code-jamming'. I don't know what 'code-jamming' might be, but think he's right again. Nick D said that he'd preferred NME to MM. Orthodoxies have grown up (maybe always had) over the differences between the two magazines - orthodoxies which may be too easy and seductive. I take it that Nick D is, for one thing. steering us away from them. Goth? Maybe. Sounds was a bit more gothic, wasn't it? On the other hand, this bit about not wanting to look kids in the eye and say 'the trouble with music today is that it's not sufficiently epic in sound and scope'. Hm - well, we'll have to have kids first, there's a problem, possibly even a rub. But was SR into the epic anyway? I was listening to Isn't Anything today and it's... oh, OK, it's epic. Still, if that's what epic stuff sounds like, it might not be a bad thing to be epic. (Surely Loveless is epic, and is one of the most beautiful sounds I can think of.) And presumably you can like epic things (whatever they are) and other things too. SR liked Viva Hate too - a great record (I apologize for the number of *opinions* in this mail - nobody needs to know whether I think it's a great record or not - it's just shorthand, I suppose) - but not epic, save perhaps on 'Late Night Maudlin Street'. Nick D was probably right on the button, really. I wouldn't want to seem to be disagreeing with him. As for SR's love of the epic: he it was who wrote (roughly:) 'U2 are massive but minimalist, all texture, no rock frills or solos...' Epic, then, yes, I will, Yes. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: he wont let me sleep.
by Christopher Lanier 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

agh. brothers and sisters, what shall I do?! it is 6am and I am sitting here freaking out because my evil ex-girlfriend gave my number to her new redneck and now he crank calls me at all hours and never speaks. half the time it won't show up on my caller ID but it did this morning when he called at 5:15am to wake me out of sleep. I called him back and hung up. 5 minutes later he calls back claiming to be an angry business man saying it was "jennings tire company" and asking why i paged him. why cant people just leave people alone? anyway, on a brighter note, I'm awake now and I was wondering if any of you play the mandolin?? Im having problems with my new one and well I'd just like to talk shop with someone else. Its fun to jam along with belle and sebastian but i think the mandolin is a little too bright for most b&s tunes ... *shrug* one last thing: im a huge gorky's zygotic mynci fan and im really wondering why "introducing...." and "bwyd time" are out of print. whats the deal here? can anyone clue me in? well thats enough ignorant ranting and raving for now. take care all .. xoxoxoxo, topher +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: He NeVeR ReAd My pOeMs...
by velocity farewell 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

I haven't written for so long... I think I forgot how to do it... I thought... well, I should wait until a bright idea hits me... not such thing happened... So, here I am, trying to figure out what to write next... First thing - just to walk on SaFe gRoUndS the new album.... I loved the title... it's so... mmmm... OlDFaShiOnEd isn't it? it gives me a nostalgic feeling... I like it, more that the other album titles... Don't you hate people who talk to you and suddenly YaWn with their mouths wide open? I despise that.. A girl at my work - is where I am right now - just did it while asking me how to classify a book about case studies... disgusting... Oh! another girl just yawned... again with her mouth open... yawning's CoNtAgiOuS so are bad manners? I hope not... I DJed on Sunday... 'twas very nice as the place was not crowded and I could play whatever I wanted... It's funny but whenever I DJ I think of you people, here in sinister... what would you like to hear, the bands you like... it's such a nice feeling... I played Smiths and Moz for George Henry and Joy Division for Owen, Baxendale for Stevie (from the new album that he hasn't got yet), Spearmint for Erica, Pixies for Laura Llew, Sea Urchins and the Servants for Richard, Pastels and Felt for Paul, Beck for Zoe... etc etc... I could go on and on and on... I played Belle and Sebastian for aLL oF YoU... I should start painting... it's so hard tho'... I have to prepare my portfolio and have nothing to put in it yet, since I gave a lot of paintings away and destroyed some others... but painting is like breathing fresh air in one of these GaS ChAmBeRS the world is like that... like a huge gas chamber that poisons you slowly so that eventually you get used to those poisonous fumes and you simply don't care anymore... Music's like fresh air too... so... keep breathing child or you'll turn into a ZomBie... I have to go now... it wasn't that bad after all... a warm welcome to all new people... and a big hug to all of you I have jam on my chin and around my mouth... I've just eaten a jam doughnut...mmmm... with apricot jam..! I wonder how many calories that was... bye bye sweet wee peas...

Sinister: i am the virgin, the tattered & the torn....
by Mark 22 Mar '00

22 Mar '00

Howdy Y'all... Big fat memory blurrs characterie this week, so yr mostly spared the 'dear diary' style entries. Although I must say, having woken up very hung over this morning after a night of mixing with minor celebs, I did NOT appreciate my pants being knicked at 10 in the morning... the offending pant thief is currently serving time in the nursery, I believe; just an interesting thought that currently my undewear is being abused by all the bastard kids in there... oibviously the Lego and Honey's inflatable sex toys just arn't enough for the little darlings nowadays. I don't know... kids; bastards. Luckily, I have another pair to wear. Lucky old me, I say, coz trouser draughts are almost as bad as as poo. I got an email this morning involving lifeguards, shagging repeatedly in the changing rooms, and Graham Coxon. In my delerious state, I thought I had hot gosip about Graham and some hunky lifeguard at it like rabbit in the changing rooms... I was in a delirious state because I found out that MY TOUNGE IS GREEN... fucking icky green too. Now this obviously means I'll be dead soon, so this could well be my last post. Bollocks. I hate green... it clashes with everything. Erica made me laugh... chocking the chicken is a very funny thing to say. I don't know why. Suggestion: use her sexual favours as a new currency on the list for tape swaps etc. OK, maybe not. Hi mimmie, welcome to Sinister. Can I please have my pants back soon???? I'm playing a really badly scratched David Bowie record really loud at the mo. Coz we're lovers.... oh hes a foxy devil... Ah, now I've got Disorder by Joy Div on.... foxier and foxier. Music to pin you down and corrupt you utterly. Beauty is an infectious thing. So is green toungness, I hope, coz if I've got it, everyone ele should too. I refuse to suffer alone. Come on then, roll up for a snog, you'll love it BAYBEEEE JD made some of the best pop everrrrr. OK off to a lecture chapps. Put the champane on ice, warm the bed, I'll be home before you can say 'oooohh you hansome devil'. Raining down love like glitter, Mark xxxxx +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
