Sinister: Book loving, two-faced, ironic Bez-style dancer
by Mr Smiley 30 Jun '00

30 Jun '00

Boo, I noticed on that Planet Sound thing on C4 teletext (which means nothing to non-UK people, and I apologise profusely for this) that some wag said that B&S are whiny and make just make music for English Lit students who are in love with their book collection. I was going to get annoyed, because ignorance is not a nice thing, but then I thought that if I got annoyed I'd look a bit defensive, seeing as until very recently I was an English Lit student. And I am quite fond of my book collection. Strictly platonic, you understand. Hahar, I had a great time last night. Want to hear about it? Good. I went to Worksop's pathetic little club, where they were playing Artful Dodger or some shite, and did my standard Bez/indie dance but with more jumping. For two hours non-stop. with chemical assitance, of course (ie vodka energy drinks. What, I hope you didn't think I'd do anything naughty). The result of this was a cardiac arrest and me sitting typing this acheing. Oh and last night we kept seeing people from school who I haven't seen for two years. It was great. They'd come and talk to my friend and I, and we'd be like "oh hi, how are you" and then they'd go away and we'd be like "what a wanker". I can't condone two-facedness at all, of course. Oh, and irony. Pop and irony are great. Irony in itself is great. In fact, I can't remember the last time I made a statement with any trace of honesty in it at all. This is why I have no friends. And I still listen to The Great Escape.

Sinister: a little bit short and a tiny bit sweet
by craigrm 30 Jun '00

30 Jun '00

Greetings Sinistah Posse, Just found this article on the MTV website. It doesn't contain any Earth shattering revelations but there's something about the idea of Stuart going around and writing wee notes to himself that I quite like. Craig x After drawing critical praise and massive college radio support for its last two albums, 1996's "If You're Feeling Sinister" and 1998's "The Boy With The Arab Strap," the mysterious Glaswegian band known as Belle And Sebastian has emerged with a new record, "Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant," which will be issued in America on June 6. Since forming in 1995, the members of Belle And Sebastian have tended to keep themselves in relative seclusion, playing only a handful of shows in the U.S. and Europe, and have avoided most media requests and interviews -- all while releasing some of the most delicately crafted, emotion-laden chamber pop of the last decade. Because of the Stateside success of "The Boy With The Arab Strap," which was cited by "Rolling Stone" magazine as one of its Essential Recordings Of The '90s, the band has decided to open itself up and actually submit to promotional interviews in support of "Fold Your Hands." MTV News recently chatted with Belle And Sebastian drummer Richard Colburn, who talked about why the band has chosen to avoid the media spotlight for so long as well as the meaning behind the lugubriously wordy title of its new album. "It's funny, because I don't know what it means at all," Colburn admitted. "To be honest, I don't think [frontman] Stuart [Murdoch] does either, because he actually got that from a piece of graffiti that was written on the wall of a toilet in one of Glasgow's universities -- I think he said he saw it about 1986, when he was attending the University itself. "He walked in to the toilet, looked up and saw it, and thought, 'What does that mean?' He didn't know the context, whether it was taken from a book, or a film, or whatever, and he was quite intrigued by it, I think. So he just wrote it down. He used to do that quite a lot; just different things, writing little pieces down and stuff. "It's quite strange that 14 years later, it's the title of the album," Colburn continued, "but I don't think too many people know what it means, if it means anything at all, specifically. I just think it was quite a cool sort of phrase." As for the band's reclusiveness, Colburn said that it was a choice that he, Murdoch, and bandmates Isobel Campbell, Chris Geddes, Stevie Jackson, Sarah Martin, and Stuart David (who has since left the group to devote himself to his own band, Looper) made when they first formed Belle And Sebastian, although he said it has led to some bizarre rumors about the group. "[The biggest misconception] is the whole cult thing," Colburn said, "and that we're really shy and sort of fey and twee, which is fair enough, because if you don't do interviews and you don't divulge too much about yourself, then people tend to make assumptions about you, which is totally natural, and because the music sounds the way it does, that springs to mind. "We used to get a lot of that with the British music press, who used to give us a hard time about that. But we're just normal people, and it's real [lucky] that we have that chemistry that seems to work and happened to make some records. "[There] is quite a misconception about the way we are personally and the way we work," he added. "We're totally approachable, but we didn't do interviews for one reason or another, and it's our own fault, in a way, for not coming across in the media and stuff. But that was the way we were working at the time, and we'll probably do that again after [this], 'cause we've done a lot of interviews lately." Belle And Sebastian has already shot a video with director Lance Bangs for "The Wrong Girl," the first U.S. single from "Fold Your Hands," while Campbell has helmed the clip for the band's separate "Legal Man" single. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: two times
by Mouche75＠aol.com 30 Jun '00

some lovely people answered my last mail! thanks, lovely people. if any of you cats are going to the picnic in sheffield, can I recommed that you get a number 95 bus to Walkley? And you get off just past the big bend after the hill? And you go to the bakers on Howard Road? Because it is the best bakers in the world. Their vanilla slices are so good it makes me... um...cry... Today, i was walking home, listening to FYH, and I was singing with gusto. I was singing along to "There's Too Much Love", and being all operatic at the "brown formica" line. And as I got into the cul de sac, lots of little kids emerged from behind hedges. So i said: "Alright lads?" I was secretly hoping that they hadn't hear me sing... "What are you singing?" they said, as if I'm some sort of community care case, you know, like to be humoured and stuff... i tried to act cool, "I'm singing some pop songs, you know...." "Is it Tom Jones?" I shook my fist at them at that point, in the pesky-kids-Scooby-Doo style, but I was thinking about it later on... Do B&S sound like Tom Jones? Do I sound like Tom Jones? And i got to thinking about Tom Jones' song Sex Bomb, and I imagined it as a nail bomb, you know, going off in a crowded place and everyone being showered with... um... pants and stuff... and I felt a little queasy... Incidentally, we kicked serious ass at he pop quiz tonight. My posse, Bridie Bunch, ran away with the £25 prize, flicking V-signs to anyone who came close. Pride's a sin, I know, but, well... WE KICKED ASS!!!! love mouche +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: the running of a middle distance loner*
by Paul Arathoon 30 Jun '00

30 Jun '00

well, Sinister is as quite as a stadium full of Dutch who waited for their team to score for 120 minutes and then saw their side pissed on by the italians in a penalty shootout after failing to score against 10 men. And i claim my prize for the longest first sentance of a post this year. There is also a trend for people who feel they should fill the vacuum to review the album.Therefore we can categorically say that Sinsister's archives for June will have the largest number of reviews for one album in one place in the world ...ever. My review: the CD was round and shiny. Always a good start,and followed from there in the expected fashion. Yet again it looks like I am going to miss all of the meet-ups becuase of geographical misses. (also known as being in the wrong place). When the London one is on i shall be in Oxford for the first and possibly last time ever. Someone mentioned a B&S party in a studio which they recorded. by a ridiculous sequence of links, ie housemate's cousin's workmate, i know someone who was there. from what i hear there were mountains of coke, dancing girls, fire eaters, free love and insurmountable quantities of Vietnam strength LSD. the reason it hasn't been released is that isobel, out of her mind on various substances ate the master tapes. Surely enough crap form me. hope this fattens up those anorexic inboxes Paul *this title does not claim to bear any resemblence to the contents of this post... ________________________________________________________________________ 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: All About "Twee"ve
by HopelesslySmitten 29 Jun '00

29 Jun '00

Dear People Coincidences, coincidences, coincidences Isn't it weird how coincidences come in sevens (a mystical number, as any wearer of a black flowing dress and eyeliner of all those years ago, would be able to tell you) but perhaps not strange when considering Belle and Sebastian and what appears to be their unknown to anyone (including I am sure them) tenuous links with the Goth movement of bygone years. Let me elucidate................. 1. Sitars..........it would seem to me that a sitar is so prominent on Legal Man due to several members, if not all, hearing the sitar at the beginning of The Missions "Sea of Love" off of Carved in Sand (1990, Mercury842251-4)..........and of course it would take ten years for that influence to take prominence in another groups music ( I shall not mention The Beatles or Ravi Shankar here as their Sitar influence on the world is negligible compared to that of The Mission). 2. In a Q magazine review (Q38/November 1989) of the then new All About Eve album "Scarlet and Other Stories" (Mercury 838965 - in case you want to order on back catalogue), the reviewer described the flagship bang of Goth's Nouveau Hippy wing as a Laura Ashley version of The Mission and there songs as "twee" - now I raise the question of could it be that Mr Murdoch once owned this album and spent many hours with it willowing through his headphones and hence here he discovered "twee".............a confession here is that I once owned a copy of "Scarlet" and at the dissolution of my marital relationship my ex and I argued about who was going to get to keep it - you may be pleased to know that I won and forced her to keep it. 3. There can be no denying that the Gorilla that jumped on the stage when B&S played TOTP's is a closet Goth and felt the need to be near other closet Goth's. So yes I did say seven coincidences, but to save my sanity (and you may think that already too late) and yours I shall stop at three But let me end with this, as so many of you appear to have B&S dreams, and as most of us don't remember most of our dreams..........how can you be sure that the dreams that you are not remembering do not have some kind of Goth content - just consider this - Pete Murphy (Bauhaus) could be wandering through your dreams tonight - just maybe you had better never sleep again or should I say Sweet Dreams HS +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: banker's bouquet
by Jan Imgrund 29 Jun '00

29 Jun '00

Hi You know, I never post. Or, at least, almost never. The last time was sometime in November, I think. I don't remember the year though. But I thought I might just as well go for it once again, since I have a nice thing to say for once, even though it has only a tiny B&S-connection. And I'll also try to fill this gaping post-void, all by myself. So what's this 15-minutes-rule. See, I've been away from the list for a while, and I missed all the new legislation. Is it that you have to spend no less than 15 minutes writing your mail, and does this include time for reading it again, finding that it's crap, erasing everything and trying again? And also the time for thinking about witty things to say, or on how to spell "Ampallang"?Are people who write very fast allowed to spend less time? Important questions! You can't just let us stand with a rule like that. Us legal men write hundreds of pages of commentary on a single phrase of law. [Beginning of actual post] Hello So, when I got into the subway (which is called métro with an accent in the parisian part of the world), on my way to buy the new B&S album, I stumbled onto a film set. Too bad! It was obviously not a big production though. Just a guy with a portable camera, one with a big light, one giving the orders, and a few more who were mainly occupied keeping the real people around quiet and away. Oh yes, there was also an actor. He played a beggar. Now I don't know if it's done like that on other subways, but in Paris, the beggars come into the wagon, make a speech (which is often really good, from a purely artistic point of view - but then again you might discover all sorts of talents in yourself when having it depends on whether you'll have dinner that night), and then collect money. It seems to work better than just sitting around. That's what the actor was playing. The speech was not as good as a real one, though. His clothes were not dirty enough, and he did not have this strange, vaguely irritated look in his eyes that all beggars seem to have. He probably also had dinner that night, despite his poor performance, so it was harder for him, in a way. They taped his performance a few times, but the boss never seemed really satisfied. I was bit disconcerted at first: standing so near, I could well give him some money when he would come past me. But since it was only a play, would I get it back afterwards? Would I be seen in a french indie movie, gauchely handing out money? It would have been my first public performance ever, and I had not been to the coiffeur for almost 3 months. It turned out though, that the beggar only ran through the rows of seats without really collecting. Bad performance. A loud voice was then heard from the other side of the wagon. It was a beggar, a real one. The crew looked kinda cross as he came nearer. Obviously, his delivery of the part was much more vivid, more present, altogether, i might even say, for *real*, y'know mate? The false beggar tried to hide under his big rasta-beggar cap as good as he could. Maybe he feared that the other one would take his place, for the authenticity. It could have been a brilliant career for him! But nothing of that sort happened, since we are in reality here, and not in a social-kitsch movie. The real beggar got out at the next station. Hmmmm Strange how stories seem so much less impressing when you write them down than when you lived them at first. But post-void is a pretty good word. Don't anyone dare use it. It`s MINE!!!! I don't like the new B&S album that much. good night, Jan 29 min. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tindersticks page: http://members.tripod.com/~iodin/tinder.html 'they're only songs' ----------------------------------------------------------------------- +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: irony, and the old
by grreth＠mindless.com 29 Jun '00

29 Jun '00

keywords: magda boom, irony, baxendale. it's funny, this irony business. pop culture? pulp and a hundred thousand wannabes make a statement by dressing like your mum and dad in those old slides of holidays to barry island in the mid seventies. and maybe i'm at that inbetween age, when sweet young things like magda would call me old and people my own age with houses and cars and children would call me young. if i said i _didn't_ need my pop laced with irony would i sound like i was protesting too much? i live a lifestyle that a lot of people would consider to have heavy ironic elements. my penchant for 1970s accoutrements to modern living is a case in point. there is no snobbery involved, none at all, when i say that i feel somewhere between angry and queasy when i see the sorts of people that are cooing over things i like the look of in the expensive 2nd hand shops of brighton, say. for me there is a dizzy pleasure in the enjoyment of these things - i may raise an eyebrow archly when pouring out a cocktail mixed in some battery operated contraption or other, but i've never quoted austin powers and would much rather have a girl say "steady, badger" than "easy, tiger". and how does that apply to music? you tell me. are air (french band) ironic? is france gall? (remember when the list was a-hum with people asking which was her best album?) so why do people think i'm ironic for listening to the latter, when the former's simply cool? and where does "legal man" fit into this, apart from being bad pastiche? irony is everywhere, so enjoy it. maybe this curious outburst has come from having a friend accuse me of "dressing up as a rockabilly" when i went to see holly golightly on saturday. and holly didn't even give me a second glance, the old witch. i think she's only got 4 toes on her right foot as well. g a r e t h --------------------------------------------------- Get free personalized email at http://www.iname.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: People Under The Stairs
by Paul Rudolph 29 Jun '00

29 Jun '00

Hello peoples, Today is my birthday. Birthdays are no longer significant for me - I'm always quite sussed about my birthdays these days. You see, I'm old - almost thirty. Is it just me or does the last verse Stuart sings in 'Women's Realm' sound like something from a Manfred Mann song (Blinded By The Light, maybe). Was this a clever attempt or am I way off? About those shirts: I think they fit kind of snug but I like that. I've gotten heavier like Isobel (from what I hear). I weighed 164 last summer whereas I weigh 176 now. 'I'd rather be fat than be confused', obviously. It was probably a couple of years ago I was 'looking stupid being used and being thin.' My cousin had anorexia. It had nothing to do with images of beautiful, waify people in magazines but everything to do with the fact that her father was an ass who deserted the family. But to say that's what caused her anorexia wouldn't be *noble* enough, would it? Style over substance is pervasive everywhere, even in psychiatry. I'm going to see The Who tonight. Maybe they'll play something more interesting than that 'Tommy' crap. Something like 'Naked Eye' or 'However Much I Booze'! Warm fuzzies, Paul +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: i'd rather jacques
by Miss Cressida Jane Darwin 29 Jun '00

29 Jun '00

glastonbury, then. it was nice to meet sinister people. they were ALL lovely. yes, every last one. and of course i greatly admired lixi's inflatable grasshopper with its words of wisdom and ian's rumour-mongering skills. apparently, burt bacharach cancelled because he lost both his legs in a freak accident and he now can't bear to sing such classics as "music to watch girls by" without breaking into sobs because "well, i can't do anything else now, can i?" poor old burt and his libido. it sounds like i had a similar weekend to heather, as my partners in crime on this trip were all herbal medicine students and hippies or soul girls, bless them, and rather long periods were spent at the jazz stage. sometimes this was good, as in (possibly the best band of the weekend) Ladysmith Black Mambazo (really). however, sometimes this was bad, for example by the time i met up with sinister people on friday, all i had seen were two contemporary dance troupes and david lynden hall. hmm.... badly drawn boy and elliott smith were also very fine. but i could hardly hear a word of david bowie as i think i was surrounded by the eastbourne division of his fan club. "he's still got it, hasn't he. ooh, he looks lovely!" oh, and indeed dear. *and* they were vicious elbow dancers. oof! still, the jazz stage has given me a renewed interest in all my stevie wonder records and fabulous they are indeed. "jamiroquai" should bury himself alive for shame. ahhh, beginning to wander, so i'll just let those of you that don't know, that jacques (aka jack) is playing borders (london) gratis on friday evening. oh, yes they may charge ridiculous amounts for their cd's and not even bother with vinyl , but just now and then they put on someone of interest. let's just hope he's not doing another spoken word in welsh. *shudder* cress xox ps WHERE is bonobo? pps does anyone know anything about hobotalk apart from the fact that they're supporting the magnetic fields in july? ----------------------------------- Cressida Darwin c.darwin(a)sghms.ac.uk St. Georges Hospital Medical School Opinions expressed those of the author and not the institution +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
