Sinister: Ah! c'est un travail que cet amour qui fait souffrir
by nikos r 04 Mar '04

Bonjour! PARIS TEXAS So, B&S are playing next week in Paris! I'll be visiting some friends there for the weekend and then we are going to the gig. Is there anything planned by the parisian listees? There must be a few... We could maybe organize to meet up just before the gig. STEREOLAB To keep the french mood on, yesterday I was in the Stereolab gig in London. I might not understand a word in french (for your knowledge, I just copied the subject line from a stereolab lyrics page) but I loved it! Their set included mainly songs from their last album Margerine Eclipse, which is lovely! HYPE I think I've just started to understand what record-company promotion is all about. Now Belle and Sebastian are getting lots more attention and airplay. I even managed to catch their I'm a cuckoo clip on the telly. Usually this kind of promotion gets on my nerves but with b&s it's just great! It's just more music from your favourite band!!! That's it from me now. Hopefully I'll reporting back from the Paris gig. merci! nikos _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: i'm philip cocu
by kenneth.chu＠uclh.org 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hello again! Haha I just read kevin's post, erm, yes, my genital is just swell, thank you. As to fruit aided fun I shall keep quiet on that one. This is more about "(My Girl's Got) Miraculous Technique". You see, I keep saying this, but everytime I say it I realise that this may all just be in my head, because I remember someone (could be John Peel!) mentioning that those 4 tracks from that particular Peel session were to be not released ever - I don't know whether I just dreamt that up or if I read it somewhere - I search on sinister archive for this and all I seem to get are, yes, my own emails!! This is weird. I hope this is not true because I heart that track. With regards to the lyrics - so does he definitely say "SNAKE into your room?", I always thought it was "SNEAK", as in like, quietly moving into his bird's room. Although, remembering how Sturan sings in funny accents all the time, he could have been saying anything... maybe it was "Snake into your WOMB the whole night long"!!!! No wonder his legs were weak eh! God this Sturan is a rude one, it's not the first time of course he had the womb obsession... You slept better in a sleeping train in a shed in a station with a TORCH IN A WOMAN'S WOMB TO KEEP YOU WARM TO KEEP YOU COMPANY! Holy shit! I bet his favourite game is womb raider! (remember the Angelina Jolie collaboration??) and remember "Simple Things"? That romantic song about Isobel? With lyrics like If you want me you know where I am I saw your ARSE in a dream and there were blue veins, blue! Oh man! Who needed to know that! Ken p.s. : none of this post is true. p.p.s.: apart from the peel session bit which i don't really know whether it's true or not anymore, and the bit about the genital is true too I guess. ********************************************************************** This email is confidential and intended solely for the person or entity to whom it is addressed.

Sinister: descriptive essay, 100 words
by Kevin Hyde 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hello: Sinisterines and Sinisterettes- Good god, it's been a long time. I think I'm required to say that when returning after such an absence. I decided to post again after mis-reading Ken Chu's subject line as 'I'm a bonobo', which, if anyone is familiar with the habits of those particular old world monkeys, would be kind of a strange admission on K.C.'s part. I was relieved to find out that his post contained no references to genital-swelling or fruit-aided self-pleasuring (two things which I naturally associate with B&S anyway). So. News-news. I recently managed to download a new copy of '(My Girl's Got) Miraculous Technique', which I still think is one of the best things they've ever done, and which I hope they will record sometime in the near future, and not relegate to holy-grail status like 'Rhoda'. Miraculous Technique may have one of the most progressive beats that B&S have ever put to tape, and I think I like it for that reason primarily, but also for the fact that Stuart says 'snake into your room and be with you the whole night long'- it's just a weird juxtaposition of the vaguely creepy and the romantic. Unlike Other Kevin (jackflaps) I haven't yet gotten Fans Only, but someone at the record store accosted me with a copy the other day and said that I had to, just had to purchase and watch the DVD, because it would change my life. Not that I doubt B&S's reformative abilities, but I get a little freaked-out by rabid salespeople, and *that*, in conjunction with the fact that this record-store-girl was towering over me by about 6 inches and sort of brandishing the DVD much like some of your harder-core religious types will death-grip and point to the Bible, made me wince and recoil, and decide that it would be much better and somehow less shameful to just order the DVD from an online place, or maybe even wear a disguise to the record store, a la the classic 'bashful pervert in an adult bookstore' trope, featured so prominently in so many Charlie Chaplin comedies [this sentence = most commas ever]. Or I could be thinking of something else... Anythough, I'm looking to leave this state sometime soon. With any luck, I'll be back in school come September, afflicting other grad school art-peeps with my harsh and unyielding prose. And, of course, reading and listening to their writing, which, I won't lie to you, I find the prospect of that incredibly frightening. I'd hate to offer criticism of someone's work only to have them tell me that 'oh, hey yeah pal, despite what YOU might think, that actually happened to me- my father spontaneously combusted on the couch beside me, leaving me, my brother, and our dog to fend for ourselves and live off of lollipops and potato chips for three weeks while his remains slowly condensed into a milky sediment on every smooth surface in the house.' Ah-ha. You can see where that would be a problem. Quick recommendations: Sufjan Stevens- Seven Swans. This album is unstoppably good, and worth buying for the title track alone. I'm not usually into polyrhythmic Jesus-folk, but ho boy, this is just that good, and maybe has one of the weirder titled songs (outside of the Liars album) I've seen this year: All the trees of the field will clap their hands. Hot dogs. I had forgotten how nice they can taste, when done properly and when not composed primarily of exotic ungulates. Diamonds: Taste great on toast, surprisingly enough. Hope you're all doing well- Riddled with bad luck, Kevin +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: i'm a boohoo
by kenneth.chu＠uclh.org 01 Mar '04

01 Mar '04

Hello kiddies, how are my wee children? Oh wait you're all like, 45 so I guess I'm kind of half your age, which makes it very difficult for you to be my children. I still haven't bought the I'm a cuckoo single. On the day it was out in the UK I actually went to check at the HMV - no I'm A Cuckoo single to be found. Boo - Dear Catastrophe Waitress was there though, which was pretty good considering the fact that I was at the HMV in Hong Kong at the time! By the time I got back to the USSK it was already past the singles chart deadline so boo. I would quite like to listen to the B-sides though. I guess I got my just dessert for my non-contribution to the single chart effort as I got stuck on level 15 of the I'm a cuckoo game, and that marked the end of my challenge - an hour and a half to go and a score of 8,925,000 to beat! It take longer than an hour and a half to even GET that score. Sigh. No España para Kenny poco. With Spanish like that maybe it's best I don't go I guess. What's "Sturan you rock?" in different languages?? Babelfish suggests (apart from the last one) what the following people might shout during a B&S gig in their home town... Bellé Français: "Sturan que vous basculez !" Sebastiano Español: "¡sturan que usted oscila!" Dame Judy Deutsch: "Sturan, das Sie schaukeln!" Mari Jo Italiano: "Sturan che oscillate!" Anthony Portuguese: "Sturan que você balança!" Seymour Glaswegien: "Och, aye! Sturan ye rock! Och wait ah told ye that just yesterday when ah saw ye! Aye!" These first names are of course from Le Hodottir (which I'd just mistyped as The Hottdottir - Freudian Slip), who brought the SINISTER BABY news, oh my. When's the wee child gonna be joining Sinister then? Bring our average age down. Oh, and now it's 18:29 (yes I take such care in writing sinister posts it takes 8 hours to do each one!), well done, whoever that's won the cuckoo game. (The scores are now reset on the thing - some dude called Something Halfpenny was on top) Ken P.S.: Speaking of Glaswegiens, are there any Glaswegiens up for fun and frolics this weekend? (Fri Sat maybe Sun?) I'm (probably) gonna be there! I'm quite good company for playing football/bowling/computer games with, and resonable company for other activities/non-activities. Or just know of fun places to go? Apart from KARAOKE at the Pewter Pot? ********************************************************************** This email is confidential and intended solely for the person or entity to whom it is addressed.
