Sinister: buses, b&s, and my gender identity crisis
by Kimberly Rehak 01 Nov '00

01 Nov '00

boo, i'm trying to decide if i'm having a good or a bad morning so far. maybe someone can help me out: 1 mum drives me to the busstop since i'm late (as usual) and informs me that i must be having a gender identity crisis because i didn't dry my hair this morning (no time, again) and i had my hands in my pocket "like a boy". i could go on and on about the things she said but i'll just leave it at that-the g-g-g-gist. 1.5 cried for 15 minutes at busstop/busride. 2 beautiful boy on the bus keeps staring at me whilst we are in transit. 3 freaky man with the hearing aids who looks like a child molester sits beside me and also keeps looking at me. 3.5 am listening to b&s for the first time in a Really long time. 4 now i'm at work and i just spilled coffee all over me. <sigh> i don't know what to do. hello to everyone new and old and to those who cry on buses (like me) and to those in germany (like me soon) and to those who dry their hairs in the morning (who are so much better than me-ha!) and to those going to beantown today. xo, kimmy +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: SmAsH-iNg TiMe!!
by velocity farewell 21 Sep '00

21 Sep '00

Hello beautiful ones... Well... it's Sunday... I remember my first post to the list under a different name... 'twas called: EvErYdAy'S LiKe SuNdAy Why do I hate Sundays so much? I do hate them ever since I was a child... but that's not what I want to talk to you about... I had a terrible aCciDeNt last night... I fell with my scooter... 'twas horrible! See, I was out with the guys last night; first we went to this place where they serve this grate HoMe-mAde WiNe and then we went to that place called CohiBa where our friend Nick was DJing... mmmmm... we were dancing and did all crazy stuff... Nick played a lot of lounge and easy listening and some bossa nova as well... there was that girl there with the most amazing hair ever... she looked like... mmm.... Kim - bluddy - Karnes Eventually we left and I was riding my scooter alone in the streets of the city.... I had my walkman on and was listening to one of the most lovely, desperate songs ever "HoMeBoY" by Adorable... suddenly I saw a cab in front of me... I pressed the breaks... back break doesn't work - I wanted to have it fixed for so long but it costs so much - I pushed the front break... and I started slipping... slipping.... and fell... my scooter crashed on the back side of the cab where as I was on the street... it was a grate fall mind you! very stylistic... not to mention that I was wearing my white fairy jacket... fortunately I had my helmet on, so no head injuries... I hurt my knee quite badly tho'... and now I have a swollen blueish knee to the size of a tennis ball... I hurt my hands as well... I stood up and saw in a blur the cabbie with his two passengers getting out of the cab... they lifted up my poor sputnik (my scooter) and tried to persuade me to go to the hospital, but I refused to go... I mean, I don't know, can't really tell, but it must have been quite a scary fall as these 3 people looked so pale and frightened... after I re-assured then I was fine and I was in a position to get back on my scooter and ride back home, they asked me where I was from and what I was doing here... so, I told them that I worked in the uni... the highlight of that amazing evening... the one of the guys in the cab made a pass on me... YeS! Now can you believe that? I was all shaken, trembling cause of the shock, my knee was killing me, and he was just standing there asking me if there was a café in the uni and if it was any good... I said "yeah, there's one and it's really good... for the students.." and left... bastard! I got back on my scooter, put my walkman on and started half-singing half-crying as I was riding back home... what? "LoVe is BettEr tHaN WaR" by the TELeViSiOn PeRsOnALiTiEs As soon as I got back home I put on the CD by FeLt "poem of the river"+"forever breathes the lonely word" that Richard made for me... I guess he justifies his role as the SiNiStEr SanTa ClAuSs so well.... BeLLe & SeBaStiAn contexxxxxxx well, Mike and StuartM. were in jeepster chat last night... yes!! I got there late myself, so I didn't get to hear anything interesting... except from the fact that Stuart was watching Telly at the moment... that's it... the weather's great here but I wish it was raining... oh, that was so boring... sorry about that.. I have to go now and watch "Dawson's Creek"... somethings are so dumb they're charming... Spooka-Dee-Loops my dog gave me a lick on my hip bone last night when I came back after the accident as I was putting my jeans down to check the bruises... that was quite comforting... Oh!!! another thing... Lovely Hannah, not our own Hannahdoll, has started a Baxendale list... mmm, I don't know about the rest of you but I do love Baxendale... the addy for those who wanna join is: http://www.onelist.com/community/superpopelectronix Yeah! bye bye sweat peas take care love that flies over the oceans +easterchocobunnies+melodyPoPs!

Sinister: On the subject of Isobel
by Ewan Dunbar 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

As this is only my second post ever ever to sinister, I had better make it useful and pleasing. It plans on being informative, which is boring, so I will attempt to insert some interesting content. But first, the informative part: I read in (IIRC) the transcript of an online chat with the band that Isobel sang one of Stuart's songs. Since Isobel wrote Beyond The Sunrise, I presume this means that Stuart wrote Family Tree. The not-so-informative part: There is a record store in town which seems to be prime for a good dose of Belle and Sebastian. They are small and have an atmosphere that screams "we love indie music". However, I have seen *one* B&S album in there to date. A friend says he bought his copy of Fishy Clap there, so that makes two. The store also seems to be devoid of just about any other related music. Which is to say that on the outside they appear to be a quaintish little indie store, but on the inside all they sell is what's popular. Sigh. I suppose I ought to let them know there's a market for such things here, but I really don't like the idea of the onus being on me. Anyway, I don't know where I was going with this, I guess I was just filling up space to make this seem less like a sort of know-it-allish informational post and more like some B&S-related opinions/news. Perhaps it didn't work. Ah well. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

is anyone here familliar with peter and gordon. They were a 60's pop/folk duo who could be seen as an immediate influence on belle and sebastian.

Sinister: Baby you're too, well, RED
by David Moore 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Hi Again, Sorry for coming in your box again so soon, but I forgot something about the picnic the other day. The "August 27th Sinister Third Birthday Red Underwear Day" bit in the footer should maybe have "& Fingernails" inserted. (into it?) Because. Whilst Kalli & Carey sported unseen red pants Lucy, Sally, and half of Trousers (but a hand, not a leg) availed themselves of Lixi's cherry red nail varnish during the proceedings. Mr Trousers from a parallel universe, what will your next move be? Diamante hairslide, red nails, ??? I think a skirt for the next picnic. Or maybe someone will pluck up their courage to give you a present & decide for you. Ally & Pinefox the shipwright's discourse is fascinating but I haven't a clue what they're talking about. My ears slept through the 80's. Honey, do you think that displaying Missprint's SS logo all over your site is going to ease the pressure of the "frighteningly named Sinister List organisation" & "Primrose Mafia" accusations? Peter, is it that a chicken run & 70's Who are both pretty shitty? 70's Pho, tee hee. I think that's enough, Love, David Moore Chelmsford, UK +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Squee and Twee
by CaMo81＠aol.com 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Ha! I never heard of Squee until 2 days ago when my friend showed me one of his Squee graphic novels and I was instantaneously hooked. Wobbly headed bob is practically the story of my life. >someone asked about why the band were associated with tweeness; it has >always seemed >to me that it has little to do with their sound or struan's voice (although >these may contribute >to it) but just about everything to do with the lyrics. the nature and '>location' of the tweeness >isn't always simple, either. take We Rule The School for example. for me, >at first glance, I >thought I was going to be ill. oh, this is ridiculously over-the-top twee, >I thought. but then >I realized that the surface tweeness wasn't the prime tweeness, the surface >tweeness >complemented the music in a complex relation which made for a twee whole >song. oh my, >that was an odd tangent to go off on. < Yes, that was me. I had said in my last post that my friend asked why B&S were associated with tweeness and I gave him a weak answer to fill in the eerie silence that followed. Thanks for responding, at least I know that people do read my posts. Heh. I never even heard the word twee until I started reading the list so I guess I'm not completely familiar with all its uses and contexts. If anyone could straighten me out it would be nice. That mucker site was pretty amusing, but for some reason, when i downloaded a sound, it just played back nothing. <shrug> We have the equivalent of those here in New York, we like to call them "hard-knockers" because they pretend they live in the ghetto and wear shirts that say "queens school of hard knocks" even though they grew up on Long Island and real queens kids would kick the crap out of them if they saw them on the street. I think I said this in my last post so I'll shut up now. Bye for now. Derek I was so excited yesterday when my mum presented me with a gigantic tea mug she got when she was in Dallas, It's quickly become my most prized possession. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: And I feel like I'm dying from mining for Cole
by P F 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

I wonder why Professor Cook thinks that his post will >>>probably bore most of you stiffless ? I thought it fascinating, as I usually do re. what he has to say, except when he's very drunk, when I only find it interesting, cos I can't seem to open my ears. Or swallow properly. He said: >>>The delectable Mr PF had to say (why, heaven above only knows): It's nice to be delectable, but I wish to point out that my name is not 'Mr PF'. It's 'PF', or possibly 'pinefox'. Orange-Juicy Lucy A once called me 'the pinefox', a definite article which I really enjoyed. But there has never been a 'Mr' involved. 'Mr' is not, as it happens, my title. Anyway, Ally96 went on: >>>Easy Pieces - Lloyd Cole and The Commotions, 1985 Raintown - Deacon Blue, 1987 Lloyd Cole (X) - Lloyd Cole, 1990 >>It seems fitting to start, as is usually best, at the beginning. And in >>The Beginning there was 'Rattlesnakes'. Now let's not beat about the >>proverbial here, this was, still is and ever will be one of the single >>most perfect incarnations of The Pop Record ever to have graced that >>strange, contradictory decade known as the 1980s. Yes, standing with 'You >>can't hide your love..', 'Murmur', 'Queen is Dead', and all the ones I >>can't remember or haven't heard yet. Yes! Soaring and swooping and >>whispering in the shadows and hollering from the rooftops "why can't it be >>like this all the time?!". I'm with you so far, though inevitably unconvinced by the 'You Can't Hide Your Love', with or without capitals (of Scotland). Of *course* I'm unconvinced: I've never heard the thing. >>>And 'Easy Pieces' is yer lot, so to speak. Not a lot, but you might like it. I do, kind of. Yes, it's dull in parts, yes, it doesn't quite have the same youthful charm as it's predescessor, but, well, >>it is what it is. That clause is below your usual standard, Cook. I mean, can you tell me about anything that is not what it is? Possibly Steady Mike could, via an unscrupulous manipulation of evidence from the Quantum Fizzy Drink world, but he's not here to protect you now. >>Reasonable, if not triumphant On this I agree. What about 'Brand New Friend'? That strikes me as a rather disappointing, or unrealized, track. But I know a fanzine editor with a big soft spot for 'Why I Love Country Music'. And I like the guitar intro to 'Grace' and the outro to 'Pretty Gone'. And 'Minor Character'! The return of the swooping strings from 'Rattlesnakes'! Fabulously cold lines like 'She said she'd throw herself off a bridge', and 'She telephoned to say that she'd cut her wrists'! Tossed off with the usual Cole langour - or are they? Come to think of it, maybe he gets worked up here. What do you kids think? The other thing about these early Lloyd Cole strings is that they are the model - the model? - for the strings on 'FYHCYWLAP'. I mean 'Woman's Realm' and 'Too Much Love' and, well, 'The Model', specifically - among the tracks' most, um, delectable features is the Lloydishness of the strings. Ally96 then moved on to Deacon Blue: >>It's just...well, the songs are often there, I mean you can see them, God knows you can almost feel then, and then suddenly they're lost forever under blankets of rubbish production, crap guitar parts and Lorraine MacIntosh's incessant wailing. Alright, so it's not that bad really, I mean there are high points (Dignity of course, The Very Thing) and the cover's lovely, a cloudy Dundee (one assumes), but the whole thing just doesn't quite work for me. The cover is lovely. The songs are, sometimes, there. Production, maybe I agree. Guitars, maybe. But are you sure it's right thus to diss McIntosh? I think she was an asset. She was a better singer than Ricky Ross, as she proved on their cover of 'Are You There With Another Girl?' - which I think was released almost exactly 10 years ago (c. September 1990) and got to no 4 or no 2 - the Bacharach / David ep, I mean, was their biggest UK hit. I don't agree, either, that 'Dignity' is a high point. I think the high points are: Born In A Storm (brief) Raintown (urgent verse - shame about the chorus, maybe. But I like the line 'You're [or is it 'I'm'?] down here, working on some dumb show') He Looks Like Spencer Tracy Now (OK) Chocolate Girl (excellent, and trés 80s. That sounds a bit like 'Trezeguet', doesn't it? As in "TrezeGUEEEETT!!!!!!!!!") Ally96 recovered from these objections, which he knew were coming, and continued: >>>Finally, we come to the boy Cole's first solo outing, all black leather >>>and gruff sleeve with Bad Cowboy stubble. Inside though, we find some >>>soft centres (leopards and spots, eh?). The single 'No Blue Skies' is >>>possibly the finest thing here, as Lloyd accuses "Baby you're too well >>>read". It seems self-depreciation is the new black. Elsewhere 'Loveless' >>>is gorgeous ("why do you say you love me/when you don't?"), and >>>'Undressed' is pleading and pretty wonderful. It doesn't quite sustain >>>itself over 13 tracks though, in fact the last 3 could have been omitted >>>without too much fuss from me, but it's all about compromises, folks, and >>>I'll happily take the rough with the smooth. Two adjectives which can be >>>applied to Lloyd Cole in almost equal measure. Long may he keep slowing >>>down. I couldn't have put it better myself. Have you reflected on how LC *did* slow down with this LP? In the sense that his first 3 LPs started with medium-to-fast songs, whereas this one starts with a (magnificent and indispensable) slow cruiser? But I disagree with the judgment of the last trio of tracks. If I remember rightly they are: I Hate To See You Baby Doing That Stuff // which is a fun, dumb rocker with French words, laughter and screaming Quine axe; Waterline // which is a very straightforward Dylan rip-off, but excellent, I think; and Mercy/Killing // which is long, heavy and menacing - a bit like Alasdair Cook - and ends startlingly - again a bit like him. On the other hand (again), it's true that No Blue Skies, Loveless and Undressed are all marvellous, in their different ways. At the end of the day, I think this is one of the great pop records ever, and even better than Rattlesnakes. I seem to have said this before somewhere. It is the last day of summer, by my reckoning. It is thus nine years to the day since I finished reading Ulysses for the first time. I sure hope I didn't *entirely* waste them. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

Sinister: I'll be over here.
by molly dahl 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Hello All You Lovely Folk. Yikes. I'm leaving the continent of North America for an entire year. I leave Monday. What a bizarre concept. I've basicallly lived my entire life in the suburbs of Buffalo, New York. Oh yes, mind you, it is time to bust out of here. Buffalo is a nice area, but the term "armpit of North America" always springs to mind. But the actual fact of the 'busting' hasn't really hit me, until right now. I was putting some photos into a photo album my friend's mother bought for me, and I just had this strange feeling overwhelm me. Hmmm. Enough with my emotional quandaries. I'm going to Spain! Valencia, that is. Is there anyone on this fine little list in the Valencia region? Better question: does anyone have any advice/kind words/pointers/death threats (no, preferably not those) they'd like to send my way? I'd be more than thankful. In fact, I would be ecstatic. After I study in Spain for a semester, I will be homeless for a month and a half. Woo! You see, I'll have no place of residence between December 15th and February 1st, until I take up residence in Besancon, France for another semester. Yeehaw. I'm really quite excited. And now for something completely different. Oh, I do have one 'bummer' that needs to be noted. Well, it has been made known to me that Looper shall be playing the CMJ festival this year (I do hope I'm not spreading a nasty little rumor. I heard it from a good source). Ugh. I would be going with the radio station at my university, but alas, I'll be 6 time zones away. Hrmph. Nonetheless, I do hope all that attend have a lovely time. I am going to go see Weezer tomorrow. I had no clue that I would be this excited. You see, I do not claim to be the biggest Weeeeezer fan. I enjoy them. Yes, that's true. But the prospect of seeing them live has made me as giddy as a 12 year old girl waving her training bra about it in the air. And I may just end up doing that... Alas, I must be off to try to fit everything I need into 2 suitcases and a gigantic backpack that could hold a midget.
