Hello, Sorry for just a short message but I've got limited email time at the moment. Darjeeling is indeed a name of tea but the variety is named after an area of India. ...Amy _________________________________________________________________ Want to block unwanted pop-ups?

Sinister: Bound And Gagged

ANSWERS Stout, Robin, recently wrote: > Has anyone bought the new single yet? Reviews please!! Not to be outdone, Grivi, Anders, went on with: > because B&S has released a new EP and nobody's mentioned it! (I > think..?) Being a BIG GEEK, I hotfooted it down to my local megacorporate, soul- sucking dehydrated recordchainstore on Monday to get a copy. Not only did I buy the record, I bought it on two formats. It wasn't planned, though. Fossicking around the pitifully-small singles section, I discovered the 7" vinyl version first. Woo, thought I, 99 pence. Has to be a bargain. May as well get it if I can't find the CD. And then, I *did* find the CD, so (after many minutes of... THE PLAIN PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET WRITE: Get on with it! I will, I will, I promise. You get a jam doughnut if you Spotted The Reference, incidentally. I'm sure lots of you will have, because you're intellectuals like that. As I was saying, I ended up buying both Just Because. Partly, I was quite impressed that my local hyperdehydrated sterilised multinational THE PLAIN PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET WRITE: You did that bit! Oh yes. I did. I was quite impressed that they still sell vinyl 7" records, is what I was saying. I'm sure they didn't use to. I'm so old I remember when Woolworths stopped stocking 7" singles - in their big final sale I bought one by Ace Of Base and another by Four Non Blondes. Plain People of the Internet: was there supposed to be a point to this post? Because, you know, we could be downloading porn or something instead of reading this drivel. Yes. The new single. B&S go disco funk, apparently. I never like labelling things, because I always end up getting it wrong. Back when I worked in a library, I had a long argument with a cataloguer as to whether a particular book should be filed under PS ("American literature") or H-something ("Business administration"). It was a business administration textbook written in the form of a novel, you see. Not a very good novel. Worse than Mills and Boon, even. If you drive down the M6 (Toll)... Plain People Of The Internet: our hands are hovering over the delete button, you know... YOUR COVER ARTWORK'S BLOWN I don't care really about B&S trying to "broaden their musical style" ((C) Alexis Petridis, probably), because personally I like an entire 387 genres of music. Nothing more, and nothing less. What I do care about, though, is their cover art. Stu M's holiday snaps, mmm. Beanz wearing an arab strap - mmmmmm. Isobel's red leather jacket - actually, is it leather or PVC? I really don't know. We should be told, you know. Anyway, the point I'm slowly getting to is: what are all those books on the record sleeve? What does it tell us about the band? Here, push this button. Plain People Of The Internet: What, this button. Yes, that button. Let's take a closer look! STRANGE VIDEO ZOOMY EFFECT Now, who would live in a record sleeve like this? Let's look at the evidence. There's lots of books on the back, here; what do they tell us? "We Learned To Ski". We did, did we? "The Bedside Guardian 35" - clearly some leftwing socialist subversion going on. "War And Peace In The Sudan" - are there some interesting colonial exploits somewhere in the band's history? "Bound And Gagged" - clearly, the whole band are perverted kinky fetish perverts. Plain People Of The Internet: Like you, you mean? I'll have you know that that investigation was dropped, and I proved to the officers' satisfaction that those chains and padlocks in my bedside drawer were for entirely legitimate activities. So there. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise. KEATS AND CHAPMAN Watching Glastonbury on the telly fills me with longing. Not to go to a festival, god no, it would be an awful place filled with smelly hippies and annoying people. No, I want to be in a band. I want to play something wonderful in time with the rest of the band, turn round and smile at my bandmates because we're creating something great. I want to be on stage, and inspiring people to write shite like this on the interweb. I want to be in a band. I'm not planning to go down to my record shop for a few months now. The Aberfeldy album doesn't come out until September, sadly. If you're never heard of Aberfeldy, go and find something out about them. Although there is a new Hidden Cameras album due out before then. That could be tempting. Nobody has read this far, have they? I should have mentioned Aberfeldy at the start. xx Caitlin -- http://www.joannou.net/topofthestairs/ +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: BOOKS - I'll be a doozer if I can
by Anders Grivi 25 Jun '04

25 Jun '04

Sinisterines; Did you know that since May found its ending and June commenced we've only managed to send 33 posts? 33 posts in 25 days doesn't sound too bad maybe, but still, I've maintained the feeling of "oh, it's oh so quiet in Sinister and thus so quiet in my inbox". So please, do post. Every one of you. But I'm not complaining. I don't have the right to do so, cause I haven't contributed myself; that's why I'm writing this so that I can do it at the end of the mail. Complain that is. And because B&S has released a new EP and nobody's mentioned it! (I think..?) It's raining in Oslo today, and it's been raining for a week now. Last monday I was going to have a day of sports. Running, throwing and jumping and stuff. This was something my school decided by the way. Great fun. I put on my raincoat, ran to the underground with an umbrella in my right hand and an apple in the other. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, and I hoped it would help me keeping the doctor away. Far away. It was raining. Not just a quick shower. We tried to go through with it anyway, but after half an hour of track and field activities whilst holding umbrellas, a sensible person decided it was enough. It was nearly as the day after tomorrow when the tide(?) come rushing in, only that there are few of those skyscrapers here in Norway. This is typical. This is summer! I read in the paper today that the average temperature's been 14,1 degrees in Oslo. And it's June! Someone do something! Isn't there a global warming going on? Money and resources are unfairly divided between the world's inhabitants, but so is the weather! Strange though that it's nearly true that: rich country = brrrr, i'm freezing, oh no! not rain again! noooo!!! please!! relatively poor country = oh, this is okay. sun again, but no money Sierra Leone = I'll give you anything for an air conditioner!! (although i don't own anything) It would be GRRRREAT if the rich countries could buy som nice weather from the poor countries. I believe that all countries would be approximately just as wealthy then. Someone invent something that makes it possible to buy weather! It'd solve all our problems. Or we could do it the old-fashioned way; revolution in the summertime. Hasta la victoria siempre! BOOKS EP 1) Your Cover's Blown hmmm.... was this the right disc or did I incidentally put on my sister's Michael Jackson disc..? Oh, that's right. That was a cassette.... I suppose it's Belle & Sebastian then but... HELP! "How do you have my number?" AHHH!!! "Why don't guide me; you be the driver?" That's Struan saying "AHHH!!"!!! WHAT IS THIS?!? ..well, it's quite catchy actually. I really like it. The DISCOISH guitar riff and the playful electronic noises. And then after three minutes it slows down.....: "I'll go on my own......" And then a paranoid Spanish march/Something of the Kill Bill soundtrack about a kid starting her cool caressing and undressing. and back again. it lasts for 6 minutes, but feels like 3. not that far away from Stay loose, probabaly, but the "AHH!!!"... gives the song a bit of a, ummm, Ah!-feel to it. And for once it feels like Richard is the most important musician... And the bass-line is cooool. It merely proves Struan's genious: he makes disco, michael jackson, "AH!!!"s, Tarantino, cool caressing, aberrations, bummers in the summer, potted plants and boxlike houses sound cool, catchy and totally natural. I mean; why do it differently? To sum up: Unusual, but great, Great, GREAT! 2) Wrapped up in books We all know this. Wonderful. Probably my favourite off DCW together with If she wants me, Cuckoo and Piazza. I think you all know what this sounds like. If you dont: er...? 3) Your Secrets The best track on this EP! An instant classic. I'd heard a radio version, and was surprised to find that it had more of an accoustic feel to it on record. It's just a perfect pop song. Accoustic guitars, hammond organ, and a melody line drenched in hooks. And Stuart does one of his best ever vocal performances. Wonderful. 4) Cover Mr. Geddes found some of the tapes used to record Your Cover's Blown and decided he'd fools around with them a bit, testing his DJ set; take the worst parts of Your Cover's Blown and make them even worse. It's a great remix. The video can be found on the internet; have a look yourself The videogame can be found on the internet; have a look yourself. (though i think it's boring.. but i don't have the patience to play computer games) RIOT ON AN EMPTY STREET Kings of Convenience's second album is great. When I came home and played Books and ROAES i thought maybe they'd given me Michaels Jackson and Simon and Garfunkel. Homesick, Misread, I'd rather dance with you are great tunes. Another great norwegian band is called The Loch Ness Mouse. I love their debut album called Flair for Darjeeling although I must admit i don't have an idea what darjeeling means.. BARCELONA Next week I'm going to Barcelona. Which is nice I suppose. But I would rather joined my friends to The Quart Festival and seen Shins, Jim Stark, Snow Patrol and Moz. Ah.... If you REALLY want to give me an advice on what I could do/see in Barcelona or Catalonia then; okay. You're allowed to tell me. It would even make me happy. SCANDINAVIA Ah, not much.. just a little football near the end; HEJA SVERIGE!! ASTERIX But I think now I'll retreat to my room and read my french Asterix and Obelix cartoons. It's hard to understand, but when you do; it's even more fun. Wish my sister a happy happy birthday! "Take her to dinner, use her boyfriend's money" why Stuart? Why? Anders Ps. Could someone please tell me the answers to these questions: 1) What is a "doozer"? 2) Why isn't the word "doozer" in my dictionary? 3) What's your favourite colour? Answer #1 anyway. PPs. Come on! It's boring not to get mails from you!

Sinister: A Century of Quakers
by robin stout 22 Jun '04

22 Jun '04

Sinisterines: I met a Quaker once. I was sitting under the vicar's sycamore tree and he came out of the kitchen with some biscuits and offered one to me. I remember I was quite shocked that he was such friends with the vicar but didn't believe in God. He didn't seem to believe in much, really, just quaking and biscuits. It must have made a lot of crumbs. I waited in on Saturday morning for a friend to come round, so had the chance to listen to Belle and Sebastian on Jonathan Ross. He asked them a question, in his wubber-lipped way, about why on earth their album titles are so long. The gang seemed a little offended. Stuart said that their label tells them the same thing - they could be so much more famous if their song titles were a little more snappy. Stuart was quite snappy himself, actually. He really is prickly at times. My friend arrived late, so I didn't have to make excuses for being in on a sunny day. I could hardly have told him the reason why. Marauding Murdoch was around on Sunday, too, in the Observer listing his ten best British albums. It was quite pleasing to see that only three of the albums he chose made it into their Top 100 British Albums (http://observer.guardian.co.uk/omm/story/0,13887,1241254,00.html) as the whole thing was a pretty dull and predictible exercise. The Britannia music club catalogue has more surprises in it. For those who are interested, here is his list. I'm glad to see that the West Midlands are well represented: 1. Poem Of The River / Felt 2. Victorialand / Cocteau Twins 3. Forever Breathes The Lonely Word / Felt 4. You Can't Hide Your Love Forever / Orange Juice 5. London Calling / The Clash 6. The Smiths / The Smiths 7. The Specials / The Specials 8. Y / The Pop Group 9. The Raincoats / The Raincoats 10. Colossal Youth / Young Marble Giants I wonder if those bands ever had arguments about how long their album titles should be. Has anyone bought the new single yet? Reviews please!!

WELL! I have a cunning plan! If you look on that link, after THE DIVINE COMEDY playing on Sunday, there are all kinds of shite on and sod all anything else, and I'm going to see THE DIVINE COMEDY on Sunday, so how about, meet up AFTER the divine comedy gig, which finishes at 14:45. In front of the other stage!?? No one will be there cos The Ordinary Boys are to be on next. And then we can get drunk and stuff and get ready for BELLE AND SEBASTIAN!!! And work out chorographed dance routines to "Beyond the Sunrise"!!!!! Does that sound good? Shit man, let's meet up all the time anyway!!! If you're bored phone me 07967 755446!!

Astrid! I was at HDIFTBL! But I didn't see you! Or I may have seen you but I didn't know what you looked like! Oops! Are you still in london?? Ken -----Original Message----- From: Astrid Wiezell [mailto:dearpaperclip@hotmail.com] Sent: 12 June 2004 18:46 To: sinister(a)missprint.org Subject: Sinister: Calling All Londoners!! Come and meet me at How Does It Feel To Be Loved? on June 18th. If you feel like it, since meeting Ian was so very nice (and he wrote such nice things about me in the weblog - I am blushing! - I want to meet as many of you as possible) I will be the giggly six foot brunette who will be speaking Swedish with her tiny (she is a lot shorter) brunette sister and other people. I think I will be quite hard to miss. Also, I am in the mix cd for the site www.blandband.nu, called blandband.nu vol 1 - songs for a trade. It really is quite exciting to have your band on a CD with other people who make great music, ih! Yes, it was one of Kat's first proper appearances. Also, look out for Martin Gordon's CD Hogwash (?) since me and Amanda sing back-up on the track Fuss Me. I was told there is a weird filter over our voices though, I have nto heard it myself. But it will be interesting none the less and it was a fun experience! ANyways, must now go and socialize with my friends, see you Friday hopefully I am looking forward to going to England so much I could DIE! Well, I won't, hopefully, but it will be pretty damn nice I tell you! Take care, love Astrid Ps. Also have now started writing my first proper novel. Might be any out of maybe five different starts.

Sinister: the end of kittenmouse...?
by Andrea Kittenmouse 21 Jun '04

21 Jun '04

Hi, It's been a long time since I've written, and I'm sorry about that. I've been really busy with other things all this year. I got a job at the famous Powell's City of Books last summer and I just quit last week. It was great fun, and a great discount. A million books. Lots of crazy people. I saw Dale from the Melvins in the store once. You really couldn't miss him, with his huge hair. Supposedly Todd Haynes shops there too, but I never saw him. Anyway, that leads me to the point of my email: the reason I quit my job is that I'm moving to New York in a week or so to go to library school, and Kittenmouse Radio is ending. Or at least, put on hiatus until I find a new radio station in NYC. I'll be on the air tomorrow evening, and next Monday, and then that's it. That's the end. Look for me on the air sometime in the next year or so at WFMU, maybe. I'll keep you all posted on the details.

Sinister: obscurity knocks, the Feelies and the day Fabricio died....

Haven't written in a while, but a few things are on my mind. First, what is the second chord in Bigmouth Strikes Again? The ones on the popular guitar tabs are wrong (C#M, E, F#), it just doesn't sound right (but I can't figure out what it is). I was watching a Franz Ferdinand interview while strumming when I suddently bumped into C#M with exactly the write tempo, when I realized it was a smiths chord and now my dilemma. It's stunning to me that Franz Ferdinand's popularity has surged in the states. Apparently they are slated to appear (or already have appeared) on Pepsi's Smash American show, which is a pure spectacle of shite. I have a feeling that popular"indie" music as we know it will be the next genre to blow up huge in the states. Suddenly during the past year or so, American networks like the WB and Fox have been playing bands like Death Cab constantly during the backrounds of shows. I scored the Feelies first CD two weeks ago -- I couldn't believe it, i've been looking for it for two years -- it's very hard to find. Anyway, if you have not heard these guys, I highly urge you to track them down -- they are the missing link between Velvet Underground/Television and the Smiths/REM and other post-punk. I won a Television CD from our local station a year ago and I liked the CDs and since then i've been trying to buy other highly influential obscure bands. There's record label website somewhere that has MP3 samples. Is it me or is the singer from the Darkness look just like Frampton from Frampton comes alive? I was stunned the other day when shopping for CDs, i ran across a Frampton cover and I initially thought it was a Darkness CD till i saw the title. Just caught me off gaurd. The aforementioned Feelies CD that I found the other day caught my attention because I thought it was Weezer's debut album -- they looked almost identical. I heard Beulah's breaking up, but they're playing a free show in NYC in August in case anyone's interested. I may go, but i'm first looking forward to seeing Franz Sunday in DC.
