Sinister: New Album Japes
by David Moore 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

Howdy Pilgrims, Questions, questions........ Where does that title come from? Is it a quotation? If so, are we talking 19th century Russian novel or something? What happens to Paper Boat & Winter Wooskie? Can't see them as Looper releases - do they never get to see the (official) light of day? & Lord Anthony - does that mean we get it on an ep? I see the band's & the label's sites are having the Devil of a job in agreeing on running order and release date :) Acronym time again: Michele is right about that silent 'w' (as in Wrong Love), she's just a bit wonky on the first vowel. You know when you get yourself all clean & spruced up for work, and then return to the bedroom to dress, and your partner looks all sleepy & gorgeous, so you slip in beside them, & when you slide out a while later, you're SO late for work, that you have to dash off in a hurry, and maybe not as much time for personal hygiene as you should.................... And so you spend all day being The Boy With The Fucky Lap Chelmsford, UK Where the hell is that Sir Cliff when you *really* need him, anyway? +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: how to make a looper...
by Dmitry Komis 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

hi kids, i went and saw looper (w/the flaming lips) last nite. they played a glorious set including 4 new songs--'on the flipside' is probably my fav of the bunch. stuart was very talkative, and he hugged karn during one of the songs. sweet. after the show i saw him sitting at the bar with the rest of the band and i asked to shake his hand since i was very nervous and i couldnt think of anything else to say. so i did. and it was lovely. hes a kind man. thats all. back to the nursery for me. dmitry +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: fold yr hands + att: Kerry, re: palm alarm
by kittenmouse radio 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

hello today is a super day for 2 reasons. i got a new job (yay) at the radio station. i guess that means i am assistant manager now. also, even better, i got the jeepster news email, and i'm sure it is obvious what i'm excited about. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY! (scream) New Belle and Sebastian (in a couple months anyway)!!! Well, to me, that is still exciting. Now, to all american sinisters--we must convince them to come to the US and tour, eh? Don't know how we'd do that. But we have to do it (and convince them to come to places other than just ny, chicago and etc). Also, to KERRY: I HAD to respond to yr post...it made me laugh and stuff, what with the strange parallels between many of the things you wrote and how my life works. it was funny. what sort of palm pilot do you have? aren't they super? i have the IIIe with a clear case, so it looks just like a funny shaped ice cube. that is a great idea about the alarm thing, and i might just try to figure that out tonight on my keyboard and write it up or something..i'm good at figuring stuff like that out, what with years of piano training and whatnot. on another note, i was watching a band that came to my school to play in the food area a couple weeks ago. they were called Wasabi (and were pretty ok) and they had a Rhodes (which sounded beautiful, btw). They started playing this song, and the piano part sounded just like the intro to Seeing Other People. i thought they were going to cover it, but it turned out they didn't. it was just kind of, um, influenced, perhaps, by the song. ok. anyway, gotta go to work now (at the library). see you all later. sincerely, andrea (kittenmouse) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: london listees only
by feather boa 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

um, i just wanted to say that the coolest museum in london is closing on sunday, and that you should see it before it does. the caberet mechanical theatre in covent garden market has been there for ages, and it's full of buttons you can push and things that move, and when you've paid entrance you don't have to pay anymore - like a slot machine or anything. i might go on saturday. pip pip, FB X *********************************** chickclick.com http://www.chickclick.com girl sites that don't fake it. http://www.chickmail.com sign up for your free email. http://www.chickshops.com boutique shopping from chickclick.com *********************************** +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Sometimes Luck Smiles on You
by Robin Stout 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

What a top day! Finally we know the name of the new album. The most striking thing about it, I think, is its notable omissions. The Loneliness..., Lord Anthony, Paper Boat, Landslide etc. It sounds like we're due for a very good e.p. , or two. The cover is ace too, and it is YELLOW and looking at the jeepster site there are going to be sleevenotes too which is GRATE! The first person to work out what book the girls are holding gets a gold star. By the way, does anyone know what book Lazy Line Painter Jane has, on her e.p.? It looks like a textbook or something. I met a chap today, at a Socialist Worker talk about Austria, who was Austrian. He was very nice and we walked off for a cup of tea and talked for a while about how Socialist Workers are too extremist and counter-productive and stuff like that. We were talking about how being reasonable is much better and I mentioned Belle and Sebastian and Stuart M and, bizarrely he'd heard of them and was a big fan. So I'm quite chuffed about this and about my new Austrian friend in general because he was very nice and when the weather gets better he's going to come to a picnic with us. ACE! Then we said goodbye and walked off up different staircases, but ended up meeting at the top, which was rather embarassing. FYHCYWLAP = Floppyflaps?

Sinister: Trainspotters, start your engines
by Scott Plagenhoef 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

Hmm, so let's face it: It's not the best title, is it? Anyone spot a reference? The cover art is nice though, nice color -- reminds me of an old Smiths 12´´ and the girl in the photo looks like she could be straight off of an Arab Strap album cover -- and straight out of an Arab Strap song. Any guesses on what book the girl (girls?) are holding, or whether or not the cover is two photos of the same person or they are twins? It's not a reflection -- it's sort of like of those "spot the differences" photos in the Sunday newspapers or Kids' mags. Can we assume the cosmopolitan Sarah Martin is the photographer? >From where I sit, there is a bit of confusion about "Beyond the Sunrise" as well. Michelle wrote: Those fearing the dreaded SITAR can rest easy, on the album at least, apparently that one didn't make the final cut. AND There is 1 Stevie song... If memory serves right (and mind that I am casting it back upon circulated rumors and press reports in things such as "Select" and whatnot) "Beyond the Sunrise" is a Stevie song (so is "The Wrong Girl" of course) and was the so-called party raveup that may have been laced with the Harrisonesque sounds of the sitar. Hmm. Nick Dastoor seemed to agree -- about the songwriting credit at least. Anyone have any info? If "Beyond..." was taped for "The Tube," surely there shouldn't be confusion about its source. scott. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: FYHCYWLAP "Rumors"
by Michele Waggner 08 Mar '00

08 Mar '00

Well, "props" to Jarkko for noticing that Honey posted the new album info yesterday after talking to Stuart and Chiara. Were you all sleeping?? After all, this IS a B&S list. Wasn't Stuart a sweet boy to let us know? Even tho' we don't hear from his mum anymore, she did raise him well, didn't she? Further "speculations:" Those fearing the dreaded SITAR can rest easy, on the album at least, apparently that one didn't make the final cut. Single?? Too bad, I like a hippie twist to my twee. (I hear you back there Hopkins, you juvenile delinquent). There is 1 Stevie song... 1 Sarah song, 1 Isobel song, 1 collaboration. The rest are Stu M songs, for all you lovesick muffins. Apparently it's a "bigger" sound, and P!O!P!. Specter-esque. Wall of B&S. FYHCYWLAP? Sounds Welsh. What can we make out of that? Fickylap? Very exciting!!! Hooray, YAY!!! June 5th in the UK, 6th in the US. We can look forward to Spring AND the cd!! Picnics around the world!!! Prepare to shed those duffle coats and pack up the biscuits kids. We rule the school. Pay attention: Wouldn't it be nice if West Coast US Sinisterines were the lucky ones this time out? It's their turn, isn't it? Some think so. Better hope California doesn't slide into the ocean in mid-June, children. Now I must be off to prepare NY for the arrival of THE LIST MUMMY AND LINDA!!!!!!! and MISS STARRYFEATHERS!!!!! And MR. ENFORCER DAMON!!! It's quite hard to put up all those 900 # stickers in telephone booths you know. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
