dear sinister-cicles, that was supposed to be "mork" ish by the way. i think there is something burning in my house. cos something smells like burned stuff. then again, my nose is stuffy cos of really mean allergies that i never used to have, so i might be a bit confused. or it might be that someone left an ash tray next to my computer. i'm listening to a very nice mp3 of maybe an angel by heather nova, altho it supposed to be verona... and then all of a sudden, it starts going clickity. this isnt a good thing. legal man came out on the 16th in the states, right? if so, will someone please explain to me why my father out right refuses to drive me to a record store so i can buy it? i still havent been able to get geometrid either. grumble grumble grumble. so, i have finally gotten back my copy of tigermilk, much to my happiness. :) my friend who borrowed it just got IYFS... so now i dont feel so displaced in my environment. granted, i still feel kinda odd.. but not as. the only other guy in my school (besides the two of us now) who likes the band is a total prick. that isnt terribly relevant, but i thought i would share anyway. i still have 428 messages to read (so dont talk that much :), but alas, i have a term paper due on thursday which i havent done that much work on yet, so i'm gonna go do that now. sorry for bothering you, Jes +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: just 'cuz they have bad haircuts.. doesn't mean they're better than us
by Derek Wuenschirs 23 May '00

23 May '00

While I'm certain the "london picnic review" window has closed, I'll say hi to all of the wonderful kids with the upside-down badges that I met on saturday. Sunday was spent recovering (after shaking my booty excessively at 2000TT) and listening to the new album... I'm in love with The Chalet Lines in all its eerie beauty. Women's Sulk gets special credit for the danceable melody and hand claps. Cheers to Rich for the tea, Sam for the posh crisps, David for the haribo, the pub in New Cross (which can now close shop and go on holiday thanks to the sinister invasion), the Calumn Banquet Hall, the guy selling footballs out of a suitcase in Greenwhich (although, I didn't play football..) and the american boy on the night bus on his britpop pilgramage ("there are no good bands in america" - bah!) Thank you Dial-A-Cab & John Lewis... ;-) Canadian love, --- [derek wuenschirs] [durkw(a)home.com] [http://members.home.net/durkw] [london, uk] +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: wings
by chippy eileen 23 May '00

23 May '00

when the darkness reaches back to you, it does so in a smile. have you ever turned all the lights off, covered the windows, and just sat in the dark...just listening? shut your eyes, reach out your hands, and wait, wait for the music to feel you. wait for it to find its way inside you. i'm sorry. perhaps i should introduce myself. my name is chippy eileen. i live in east langerston..its a tiny village in yorkshire. we have a chip shop, a newsagents and a woman who goes round from house to house, combing old ladies' hair. i don't know how long i've been here. no, really i don't. you see, margaret found me one day. margaret, that's my mother, or the closest i ever came. she's married to frank, and they've looked after me since whoever left me here left me here. when i was little margaret liked to tell me it was a gypsy. i liked the thought of that. a dark-skinned, mysterious headscarfed lady who was on the run from some magical curse and couldn't take her little girl with her. so she left me, wandering round outside the chippy, and margaret took me in one night. i left school last year, and now i work in the chippy. margaret and frank wanted me to go to university, make something of myself, but i decided not to make myself until i knew what i wanted to be. so i stand, day after day, frying fish, and playing belle and sebastian on my little radio. there's something about frying fish. most people wouldn't understand. most people who work in a chippy just want the money. i do it because its where i come from. its pretty quiet, so they leave me on my own in the shop a lot. sometimes i can stand and stare into the vat for ages, just watching the bubbles as they drift around, lost in some sort of long-forgotten pattern. that sounds strange, i know. i often say things that sound strange. i'm sure its margaret's story about the gypsy that did it. i've grown up believing in magic, believing in its power to change the world...or, if not, at least to change today. that's why i like to feel music. that's why i stand, in the dark, reaching out and hoping something will reach back. they say a geometrid is a type of moth. did i read that on the sleeve notes, or did i look it up on margaret's computer? i don't know. moths, funny creatures. always flapping around in the dark, when really, all they're looking for is a light. when they find one, they'll die for it. they dive straight in, and they find their wings burning. funny creatures, always flying around in the dark, looking for a light. not altogether unlike human beings. "geometrid". good title for an album. will i feel the moths in the dark? will they seek me out, their light? or will they fly around, looking for brighter sparks? i turn the lights out... the player always hesitates for a moment, and i use the pause to stand, in the middle of the room, feeling. one song, two songs, three songs....i can feel myself smiling, but untouched. fourth song...oh dear... and then suddenly... something tingles. my fingers touch a wing.. i can feel my brain breathing... i'm not alone here. the songs flow into one another...and i find one inside me...."bug rain".... i hear the words but i'm not really listening to them....."bug rain"...just feeling.. feeling it reach back to me, flap its wings around. i hope it doesn't die yet... and no, it doesn't. for what seems like a couple of moments it explores me... into my hair, round my fingers.. and then, i am aware that the music has stopped. and i'm on my own again...but i'm smiling. i'm typing this, looking out at the dusk. there's a duck pond next to the house. the ducks don't live there since someone poured petrol in it. out of the window, i can see what's left of frank's green house. that green house. he spent so much time and money building the green house, growing his tomatos, his cucumbers, his pride and joy. when you look at fish and chips all day, you don't want to eat fat. it took him nearly two years to get the green-house just like he wanted. for two weeks, it stood in our back yard. a monument to human achievement. and then...it collapsed. a high wind, and that was the end of frank's dream. i'm typing this, looking out at the dusk. downstairs, i can hear the shop door close and a car drive away. margaret's voice is shouting to frank to fetch some more cola. i'm typing this, on my own, with the dusk. soon to be the darkness. full of moths. and i'm typing it now, because i'm scared that when the morning comes i'll find that all i did last night was listen to an album. xxx eileen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister:carnauba bees (Another new'un and Looper in northhampton)
by nikko Poiccard 23 May '00

23 May '00

Hello scary boys and girls, I have been out of the nursery for what seems like years, but is only about six months, so I won�t give the, I�ve just got out of the nursery blurb because it doesn�t apply (saying that is even more tw**, I realise now). Anyway, somewhat intimidated by the glorious prose that flows from some of your veins I shall keep this short so as not to offend with dreary syntax or unenlightening musings. A brief description of me is not in order so I will add one anyway. SKIP THIS IF YOU HAVE SENSE (INTRODUCTION) I live in Bucks (I�d like to say stockholme (sic) or warsaw, just to impress, but I can�t lie very well) but escape to london when I can. I was introduced to B&S by the black session recording and have been dysfunctional ever since. Favorite bands = smiths, tindersticks, B&S, Leonard Cohen, Arab Strap, sonic youth, Smog, Godspeed, beach boys, slint and of course steps, who were robbed at the brits. I�ll stop now as I can tell I am boring the more frivolous sections of the community. LEGAL MAN Am I the only person who thinks that Legal man sounds a bit like bananarama (which is no bad thing), only everybody I tell looks at me for slightly too long afterwards. I love the song by the way, and what I saw of the video (re �them catz was trying to kill me, man�) made me shiver - I suppose it�s just seeing Bel dancing and Struan looking kind of insecure (glorious hair though) that did it, they must have been nervous doing their first act as pop stars. LOOPER ON TOUR I am rather excited as I will be seeing looper in northampton on the 9th june and cannot wait to see whether Stu D has shaved or washed or anything. I hope this is not list abuse seeing as he did used to be in B&S and he is so cute and cuddly that he can get away with it. Anyway, I expect there must be some sinisterians who are going, so if there are we could meet up and compare the shinyness of our upside down badges. Unfortunately mine will be a dennis and gnasher one as I pinned my b&s one along with my elvis one to the knees on my cords, only to find that they had been torn of by a small child with very good taste in music. Well they got lost somehow, but if you are going email me, to cheer me up a bit. I am not sure if that took 15 minutes to write as there is no clock here, and my concept of time vanishes on frequent occassions. I am sure I shall post again in another six months with something witty to remark upon but for now Tara :) will bowe (ignore silly name - it's a nouvelle vague thing) nikko(a)rome.com ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Struan,Struan you appear all over me,for me,me me me
by Genevieve Wesley 23 May '00

23 May '00

Stru-Anne keeps taking form in other people doesn't he? Gosh,who was saying it,from a few digest back,that a guy from Ally McBeal looked like him? THAT HAS BEEN BUGGING ME! See,I've only seen like 2 episodes of Ally McBeal but that one character,Richard Fish (that is who were talking about,right? Or else now I'm going to look like a crack-baby)held an unnatural attraction for me,but I couldn't place it.And now I know.I must have subconcious 'type'. Stru-Anne also appears in the movie Roadtrip.Yes yes,I know,I KNOW! But it's true..he's the obsessive stalker Teaching Assistant who bids money on the preeetty lady. In Art class,we're not doing silk screen anymore,so I don't know when I'll be able to design Girl Sinister FC Tee Shirt.We're doin Soft Sculpture.From the examples I was looking at it,it all looks very kitschy and evil.I find dolls very evil,they are only second in evil to the dreaded Clowns.You know those dolls that when they lie down,there eyes close,and when they get up,they open? God they give me the heebie-jeebies.There's just something very unnatural.Anyways,I'm getting sidetracked.One of the examples was a huge,life-sized knitted Momma figure,knitting.And it hit me: I should knit life sized replicas of Belle and Sebastian.(Great idea apart from the fact I can't knit)That would win hands down for more scarily obsessive fan,wouldn't it? I could fed-ex them to Stuarts house with the message "I'm your creation! I'm the girl from Expectations! I've moved on from clay figures of the velvet underground- now it's you,it was ALWAYS about you!" Or I could send him one of those dolls I was talking about above that when you press it,it says "Stuart..I'll love you forever and ever and ever.." "You're my BESTEST friend.." In an unnatural little girl voice a la campbell.I hope Mick Cooke skips this mail,hes going to think I'm weird. So you all seemed to have a good time at the picnic? GIRLS! Why didnt you play football!Was there at least some boys wearing skirts? I'm taking this very seriously,I hope you all don't think its a big joke.I've been meticulously transforming all my jeans into Dazy Dukes,fraying them,in preparation for late summer.You can bet I'll be the be the classiest player there.I'll get a Famous Watson Feathered HairDo and wear the dazy dukes with high-heeled vinyl pumps as well.Hot stuff!You can't let the boy-things win,honestly,they can't be that good.Velocity and Me have been warned bout some Ally character,and I assure you,I'll take care of that,no problem.I got your back.I'll be practicing for August. Oh! And another thing: I bought Legal Man.I know its like the only thing people have been talking about,but I was quite pleased because its one of the first cds I bought in months.11.99 at HMV.Its so weird that I bought the cd when it wasn't availble in other places.I do wish it was a bit meatier,I didn't like Legal Man when I first heard it,but it's good frivolous fun now.I haven't seen the video,but when I hear the song,the video I see in my head is of all the Belle and Sebastian boys tied up in chairs with sexy go-go girls in frayed,glittering bikinis dancing around them,reeling them in with the ties they are wearing.I completely agree with Nick that the Lonlieness Of The Middle Distance Runner should have been their single.Tthis is what happened with my friends (who are non-b&s fans) But since they hear me go on and on about them,one dear boy (god bless him for trying) was like "Yeah..I looked them up and I heard this song Is It Wicked Not To Care..umm,yeah" If only he had found another song.(No offence to fans out there that count that as there favourite song)Its just not what I would call the best reprasenting.But the Distance Runner!The chords,the guitar solo,it makes my heart swell!It makes me feel like running through the fields!I don't care if that sounds cheesy! I love when Stuart sings about the runner stopping in the middle and looking around,all alone,it puts such a vivid vision in my head.The other part that makes my heart swell is in Le Pastie De La Bourgeoisie "how you love,and a halo surrounds you.." OH OH OH OH,I can't even take it's so beautiful! I have to do 10 sketches of Cats now.Gosh,If I'm going to be twee I want to be this Gay Sequinned Twee all you London people keep talking about.Oops- I better stop before I write a novel.("But you already have") I'm so easily distracted from unpleasant things such as study and work. kisses and hamstring stretches, Genevieve sniff..sorry to see my fantasy girl erica depart, extra kisses for her xx ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail 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: Is Moving House the New Rock'n'Roll?
by Peter Miller 23 May '00

23 May '00

Kevan, I haven't heard the new record yet, but are you sure they're bongos? I've just got a hunch that maybe they might be in fact congas... I got a birthday card from Bob the Builder. What's all this BabyChris was saying about there being a "massive pretentious tosspot" in Papercuts? Only one? There's usually at least three or four. Come on, who was it? I haven't seen it yet, due to an administrative error*, but I've been giving the matter some thought. If it was just "massive tosspot" it could have been me, but "massive pretentious tosspot" is a bit much. Mind you, I have got "The Journals of Sylvia Plath", still in its plastic, which I'll probabaly stretch over my head as I read it. So B&S turn down offers to provide the music for adverts, do they? That should help keep the global economy booming. We've moved, update your bookmarks. Love and Rockets, Gene Loves Jezebel, Rose of Avalanche.

Sinister: broken in the fall
by sarah cracknell 23 May '00

23 May '00

he kept staring at me. i looked away, but he kept on staring. i tried glancing out of the window; pondering my feet; standing up and pretending i saw the ticket inspector coming. but he just sat there...looking at me. there was a time i was used to that. there was a time people used to stare. i used to be famous. an international babe, an arm-wavey-hip-swingy-maraca-shakey-type-of-girl. people looked all the time. and i loved it. i loved them knowing who i was, standing close to me in the crowd, smiling, making eye contact, reaching out gently with their fingers.... not now. times have changed. i am no longer a transnational funkster... oh yes, there's still a sarah cracknell. she sings as beautifully as she always did, her bangles jangle, her lips pout and her position at the cutting edge of hand-held percussion is unchallengeable. but it isn't me any more. its a machine, just a face, just a girl put together with kisses and bolts. it started last year, when i got kidnapped. pete and bob responded to my pleas for help for a while. bob said he'd rescue me in a cunning plot involving hammond organs, french footballers and the smile of the moon. alas, he lied. he did no such thing. for there was already a sarah in my place. the boy that had kidnapped me dressed up every night in a slinky number with pearls and snuck out to my gigs, where he pouted and strutted and sang "running for cover, it looks like its going to rain" to a thousand adoring fans who thought he was me. i hear that fame did not offer him satisfaction, and he's back now, selling his arse behind selly oak station. he says its a more honest profession. in the mean time, i escaped....i ran through the streets as the drizzle stang my face, i hitched a lift to dover on a passing donkey, and i got kidnapped by aliens. since then....i drifted. bob and pete have a new girl. she looks just like me. she sings just like me. i wonder if she is me. because sarah c has gone somewhere else. this woman who sits and looks out of train windows.... i don't know who she is, but she isn't the girl i used to be. i've been on the train four days now. if you hide under the seat at the terminus, the guard doesn't see you and you can travel on and on. the guard used to look at me strangely, but now he just walks past, like everybody else. its as if they don't notice me. none of them stare any more. except the man. the man that was staring. and he kept staring. then he leaned forward and opened his mouth... "you know who you look like with that moustache on?" moustache? oh yes, my tom selleck disguise. i can't remember how it got here, but i think i adopted it whilst in captivity. i look in the mirror of my shoe...but i see no-one....i start to answer him.... "tt....t...tom s-" but he jumps in before i finish "catherine deneuve". catherine deneuve? another look in my shoe...the train rattles through a tunnel, and somewhere i can hear a baby crying. i feel a trickling on my cheek, and i realise i am smiling. for the first time since the last time. i try and answer him... "b...but catherine deneuve...dd.ddd....didn't have a m.mm...-" he cuts in again.... "in the days before she was famous, of course. her young days. the days when her beauty could destroy a man's eye at seventy paces....that's who you look like.." i smiled again..i tried to thank him but my throat was too full of smiles and the words fell back inside. he leaned forward..."i know you...i know where you've been. there's no need to explain. take my hand, go on....." hesitantly, i allowed my finger to fall into his palm....he winked at me "when is now?" he asked.... "i....i..." "now is just something we feel in our heads. you and me, we've been now. its time to be forever". i smiled, and shut my eyes to blink back the tear. i opened them again. he is gone. i stare at the window, and i think of you. i think of how you all tried to help me once. can you help me find myself now? can you tell me where i am? the next time you climb on a train, look for me. i'm hoping i'll be there. love silent sarah c +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: ho hum
by sophie watkinson 23 May '00

23 May '00

this is my second post. but maybe we could treat it as my first? becasue i didn't get a chance to finish properly last time becasue my dad needed the computer. and incase you haven't noticed i have severe difficulty in typing the word becasue. because even. i have to confess my sins. i only got into b&s because of something very narrow minded. i fell in love with someone who loved them. so i thought it would only be right if i loved b&s too. even if said person didn't love me. <does that make *any* sense at all?> so i made my unsuspecting lil' sister buy tbwtas (she's always richer then me!) and instantly fell in love, of course. and the wierd thing is that the whole album made me forget all about my heart which had been broken by a belle and sebastian fan, and made me remember the love and happiness that life can bring if you just let it in (oh dear, how tacky!!!!) my least favourite album is iyfs and i get the impression i might be in the minority when i say that?!? as a stand alone album it is, of course, pretty damn good, but when theres a choice between that or tigermilk it's gotta be the latter, and when tigermilk becomes tiresome, which isn't very often, tbwtas always kicks in. so it's not until i've tired of both the others that iyfs gets a listen by which point im in need of a tea and biscuit break anyway. i got to talk about b&s in an exam today. it was only general studies, but still, i thought it was quite a skill. i had to write an essay about the effect of music upon society or summat, using personal experience as examples, so i wrote a load of gushy stuff about a sense of belonging etc etc. but it certainly spiced up what was otherwise a boring three hours. i also had my design exam today which was very boring too. so now im very tired and must go to sleep. i haven't even been able to buy lego man yet cuz i was revising. love sophie "Happy. Barefooted, wild-haired, singing, swigging wine, spitting, jumping, running - that's the way to live." *Jack Kerouac - beckoning with open arms* on another note: me and aforementioned lil' sis went to the bridge at the top of my road the other night to escape a domestic arguement and ended up spitting on cars as they went under on the bypass. and it was so funny that a couple of days later i got my friends wasted then re- introduced them to the pleasures of being a young tear-away. if anyone's after a bit of light relief, i most certainly recommend it!! +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: beautiful, only...
by elenita99 23 May '00

23 May '00

Hello littles friends, OK as 134 people or so did already, Legal Man....I love Winter Wooskie a lot, it is really a lovely song. Legal Man...mmm didn't listen to it enough I guess but will do, it sounds a bit disco so it's sort of unusual but, well...I find it ok. And i like JIADS even if it was some surprise to discover it was instrumental. I am now sooo impatient for the new album! London picnic was lovely, I couldn't expect more from my first Sinister picnic! We had lovely weather, lovely people, lovely games with ball and frisbee, and a GRATE night at 2000TT (even if I came home all wet a 4 in the morning with my big Fichyclap poster under my arm :)First time I heard B&S songs every 10 mn, as Carsmile Steve said...and it's brilliant, I just couldn't prevent myself from jumping all around the place... I did get very jealous because of a girl wearing a lovely hand-made-with-velcro Sinister t-shirt...what about these uniforms then?? I hope we'll do that again and that more of us will join:). Even if my Mum felt really better after I phoned to say I was ok and safe ("...slightly mental" I heard her think when I told her I was having a picnic with 30 people I didn't know) Hope you all had a nice week-end...
