Sinister: Long for sunshine
by Pamela Hutchinson 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

Hi So good to see such a busy list. Just wanted to pop up very quickly and say that I have been listening to the album lots and enjoying it very much. More to the point - it has brought the sunshine back! To London at least. Do other listees have evidence of records contributing to climate change? Much like Lucy and Ailsa, myself and Mr B had a very wee picnic last Thursday, on Platform 9b with a coffee and a milkshake. Plus one mystified spouse-onlooker. Needless to say, the Cambridge concert, as previously reported, was wonderful, and re-introduced us all to the splendour of Your Cover's Blown. And The State I Am In. Aah. Also, have they had such a good light show before? I assume there will be much more pubnic action tomorrow before the London gig. I'm very jealous as I have no ticket. It is fantastic news that it is taking place in Hammersmith - you can all go to School Disco afterwards. I'm sure Stuart would approve.

Sinister: The Pursuit
by B. Clay Moore 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

I have to say I've been spinning the hell out of the new disc, and it's ace. Another step in a similar direction as DCW, and proof (for me) that the well isn't about to run dry. Lots of fun little bits thrown into the mix...a little glam, which is nice... Thumbs up! -- BCM ----------------------------------- B.

Sinister: the matador deluxe cd isn't so deluxe
by Jennifer Juniper 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

hi kids! yes it has been a long time since i have posted but i wanted to share and find out if anyone else has had this problem in the states because i am grumbly! :OP so i got the last copy of the limited edition deluxe version at the local best buy. YES! the regular cd was on sale at best buy for 10 bucks! it even ran in the sunday advert! (the special version was 17 bucks btw) well i bought it and didn't open it until i got home and argh! the little booklet had fallen out at the staples! why oh why did they design it like that?? it should have been able to be removed and put back in! was the british version designed in the same manner? i am distressed and was even more distressed when i actually listened to the cd! oh my! the first two songs are good, but i have to say the cd sounds like a bunch of like b-sides strung together with no theme. not their best work by far and hardly worthy of a life's pursuit! :o( back to lurking now, jennifer juniper __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Unable to think of a new pun
by Rachel Playforth 09 Feb '06

09 Feb '06

Well hello there. Thought I'd join in with some gig reporting back/album musings. This will probably be my only post for another year or however long it's been, so forgive me if it's long... Just to add to Fiona's memories of Brighton: - very disappointing to have Lazy Line Painter Jane (still my favourite track live) snatched away at the last minute due to misjudged audience participation. I remember sitting there thinking 'oh I know all the bloody words, get off woman and let me have a go' but then realising that a) I was in the circle a few dozen feet above the stage and b) I probably WOULDN'T remember the words once on stage and being hugged by Stuart. Sadly she turned out not to know the words to The State I Am In either, so Stuart kindly gave her a tambourine to bang instead like a small left-out child. - Your Cover's Blown is, as chris has said, amazing live. Better than any of the numbers they've supposedly had ten years to perfect... (though it was quite endearing to see Stuart STILL forgetting the lyrics to Slow Graffiti). - on being asked what team he supported (original!) Stuart claimed that he only supported 'half a team - Hove Albion, but not Brighton' because he liked his big posh houses by the sea to be pristine rock star pads rather than delapidated crack dens. Or something. - there was discussion of the Strokes gig down the road, and as Fiona said, a short and suspiciously perfect blast of 'Last Night'. 'I wish I was in the Strokes...' said Stuart wistfully. - daring death-defying handrail walking during Electronic Renaissance was definitely a highlight. Stuart seems to be much more of a showman these days (stooping down to shake people's hands!), also much more in control of the rest of the band somehow. As for the album: I have only listened to it at work so far, meaning that I haven't had the chance to crank it up to full volume. But listening to B&S slightly muted while daydreaming at a desk is maybe as good a way as any... Act of the Apostles a strange choice for an opener; too generic indie, and not as catchy as it thinks it is. Another Sunny Day is great - could have almost come from IYFS if it wasn't for the tighter production and prominent keyboards, and probably at its best listened to in the summer. Can't wait! White Collar Boy isn't as good as the similarly glam rock stuff on DCW, a bit aggressive and obvious for my taste. Not the lyrics though, they are fab. In The Blues Are Still Blue (like White Collar Boy) the production has the vocals far too much below everything else, I think, but I love the chorus (songs about laundrettes are always winners in my book). Dress Up In You sounds like something from TBWTAS (maybe a quieter, weedier Dirty Dream No 2) and as such isn't really doing it for me yet (though the horns are nice). Andrew is right that Sukie In The Graveyard could have popped out of a B&S song generator (guitar solos excepted perhaps). I like it, but it seems like Stuart (if it is he) struggles with the speed so his voice sounds a bit bland. We Are The Sleepyheads hasn't made much of an impact on me at all, could be any guitar band bar the voice really :( I love the dreamy chorus of Song For Sunshine, all very late-sixties trippy. Most 'different' song on the album in a way. Funny Little Frog despite the awful name totally justifies its selection as the first single, I reckon. Beautiful soaring, catchy melody, perfect 'new' B&S. Another one for summer. Just get rid of the frog... To Be Myself Completely was great live, but then it's always a pleasure to watch Stevie jerking around behind the mic in his nice suit and Stuart momentarily turning into Bez... on record it loses something, but I do love the intro with the tambourine etc. Falls over a bit in the chorus much like another Wrong Girl... Act of the Apostle II starts SO QUIET and continues a bit wavery and pointless, though the plinky plonk piano just about saves it and it seems to have turned into a whole new song by the end. Reminded me somewhat of the Kinks. Sadly I will not now be able to listen to For The Price Of A Cup of Tea without thinking of Adrian Evans' acid reflux, but apart from that I rather like it - nice twiddly bits. AND FINALLY, Mornington Cesecent. It sounds like an Oasis B-side, tedious percussion and ballady guitar solo and all. Of course Oasis would never title a song Mornington Crescent, and the lyrics are quite nice, but is that enough for your closing song? No. I often have a problem with the final songs on B&S albums. Some of my least favourite tracks are Judy and the Dream of Horse and Rollercoaster Ride. Not fade away! So overall, that's 4 good songs, 5 not sures and 3 turkeys. Not what I could have hoped my reaction would be but hey, after the greatness of the Brighton gig I am prepared to forgive a lot. And I've always got my copies of Tigermilk and IYFS... (not that I would EVER have the 'their early stuff is better' fight becase that is just stupid). Love to all, Archel xxx +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Friends, Codes, etc
by Andrea Young 08 Feb '06

08 Feb '06

Well, that was quite the action-packed digest, with all the reviews and the links and things of that nature. There was even a confusing accusation of encouraging bad thoughts about children (TLP album cover, apparently). I don't quite understand that one at all. Anyway, for Eric Cheesybun, I recommend listening to Sufjan Stevens (Come on feel the Illinoise), and maybe some old Sunny Day Real Estate. I've been listening to them a lot lately, along with my usual diet of 70s/80s metal. Speaking of Sunny Day Real Estate, it's only a matter of time before the early 90s and grunge come back. Speaking of the early 90s, don't misunderstand the significance of Mark Lanegan. He might be just "some guy" to you, but to me, he's "some guy who was in the Washington state grunge band called Screaming Trees". On that note, see you later, Andrea p.s.

Sinister: steamy windows when we met
by Andrew Barton 08 Feb '06

08 Feb '06

Dearest Sinister: Over the past few years I have been tempted to post, fleetingly, when a number of heated discussions have flared up. But I have most often chosen to remain quiet, as I edge towards twenty years of age. I joined this list at 15, when I was living in London for a little while during my sophomore year of high school (I apologize in advance, to anyone it may irritate, for the overtly autobiographical nature of this post). Many people on the list were very kind in welcoming me to the U.K., making mix tapes for me, taping a B&S radio broadcast to send my way, recommending records stores, etc. Since then I have come and gone from actively reading posts, but have consistantly regained my Sinister devotee status when times get Belle & Sebastian-y. I wanted to write about the new album (surprise surprise). Firstly, I think it is utterly fanstastic. But I didn't fully upon first listen. I heard 'Another Sunny Day' as an mp3 sometime in November, and remember the joyful moment distinctly. I was staring out the window of my room at Bennington College, and saw my ladyfriend walking down a path maybe three hundred feet from out house. The song was hitting the 'another rainy day, we're trapped inside with the trainset' section, and I took off running out the door and into the oddly-balmy-for-Vermont-in-November sunshine. She joined me in running back to my room, and there we danced to the last minute or so of the song before collapsing and playing it over again. I read the lyrics to all the songs off of the website soon after. Then, sometime in December, a list-ee friend who had downloaded it, sent me a secret CDR. I hesitated, then thought, "Oh fuck it, the anticipation is too great, and of course when I actually buy it I'll like it even better." At first I was shocked to find no detectable strings other than the 'To Be Myself Completely' violin solo, a whole lot of swagger, and to hear what seemed to be a record of B&S playing in a room together again. Even though 'The Life Pursuit' is vasty different from those cherished, beautifully flawed B&S recordings, I believe the spirit and direct style resembles them delightfully. As do the lyrics. 'Sukie In The Graveyard' could have been created by a B&S song generator, but it might be my favorite track just for that reason! It is everything I could want from a B&S song, really: dancyiness, nice horn part, lyrics with literary finess and a fine story to boot. Anyway, at first I thought the record was very good, but also weird and confusing and not all together cohesive. But I knew to give it time. As the first B&S release to come out after I became a fan was 'Jonathan David' (arguably the first song of the 'confident' version of the band), which I didn't at first like but grew to adore, I knew to be patient. I knew how I had eventually decided each subsequent record was my cup of tea, even if others didn't agree. I've taken a break from it for a while. When my three formats of 'Funny Little Frog' single came in the mail, they tickled my pickle. What is it with people not getting into this song? In my estimation it has the catchy staying power of all those 60s and 70s pop songs snobs would tell me B&S were ripping off, with enormously better lyrics and musicianship. Isn't that what good bands do sometimes? It explodes from the speakers! Today I woke, tired from winter-internshipping, bleary eyed, to the third sunny day Washington state has seen in the past two months. I picked up my CD/DVD package (Super swanky cover art and accompanying photos! Well done Stuart!) and a nice hot coffee, then set out for a walk to remember. All the other memories of days when new B&S recordings have been released, since I got that little start in 2001, came back to me vividly. The beginning of high school to the beginning of college, perhaps the most important 'growing up' time. Points marked by afternoon walks where I always stop in the middle and flip through the liner notes. This band has never dissapointed me, and today I felt, stronger than ever, how I doubt they ever will. With shyly given love~ Andrew +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: The Wife's Hirsute

Daerest Busty List Petridish, via Sister Disco, sed: "Say a word against the Scottish septet in print and they launch kamikaze raids on your inbox and write letters to your editor in cat's blood." Come on, Lexi, you know we only deal in fwuffy kittens round these parts. Way back, I went to see Belle and Sebastihen's Tuesday gig at the ABC in Glasgow with Ailsa nee Ross and somebody even taller than Big Stu who used to be on the list for a very short time a very long while ago. Ailsa and I thought it was very strange that we didn't know anyone there. We searched and searched for upside-down badges and friendly faces, but no luck (rants about picnics, meet-ups and Ye Olden Tymes for a couple of paragraphs, then thinks better of it and deletes it all). Oh, we did see Stephen Pastel, though. THEN, when the gig ended, we realised that there was a bit for VIPs upstairs and who should come down those stairs but some dead snooty types eg. Chrys and Julya Lynyrd, "Crazylegs" Keith Watson and Patrick Municipool! We comforted ourselves with the knowledge that we were down with the real fans, even if half of them looked like they were only there because they quite like that one at the end of Teachers. Should I say something about the actual, like, music? OK, then. It was rather good. They are 'tight' these days and also 'in tune'. They did a lot of songs off IYFS, presumably because they were still well rehearsed from the album gig in London. Actually, there was a lot of old stuff and the new stuff was good too. Only one I wasn't so keen on (sorry Stevie), and Stupot forgot the words once, so it almost felt like Ye Olden Tymes (rant etc.) Oooh, and we stood under Europe's Largest Glitterball. It was kind of dazzling and also very big, as you'd expect, I suppose. When the lights went down a bit, you could see the whole crowd reflected in its little squares. It made me feel a bit misty, or maybe that was the booze from the ABC's amazing bottle bar (really, they do have an excellent selection. I mean it!) In other news, I have a new job, and they are sending me to India! And my vaccinations are making me feel like I've been hit by a truck. Poor old ...

Sinister: Fife's a Hoot
by Ev 07 Feb '06

Sister Disco: > I do not like the packaging of the new album. It is >sexist, promotes paedofiddlia, and the knees are >nobbly. Fatherhood does that to you eh? All of a sudden you have to think twice about looking at those lovely young ladies who are now closer in age to your daughter than they are to you. Miller Continues: > It is a good album though, I give it four stars. I'm getting there, I'm on about three and half at the moment. The half is slightly obscured by the cloud that is Lidls Bourbon. I'm quite taken by "For the price of a cup of tea" which reminds me of one of the great injustices in the corridors of County Hall. How can a cup of tea equate to one packet of Wheat Crunchies when the price of a cup of coffee will get you a packet of Cheesey McCoys? How can that be right? Surely more effort goes into making an urn of tea than an urn of coffee? Surely teabags are well expensive compared to the crap instant dust they pass as coffee? I flatly refuse to drink the coffee but that may have something to do with my continuing acid reflux problems. "White Collar Boy" sounds like it belongs on a Carter USM album somewhere.

Sinister: Looksies
by honey＠missprint.org 07 Feb '06

07 Feb '06

Sinisterrrs, It's about time I passed on a few nudges below from people I've received in the last week towards interviews and video footage of the band in the wake of the new LP. Firstly an interview with Stupot by the Onion AV Club in Chicago. Then BBC Scotland mailing us to tell us they've put up the whole of the recent performance of the band as streaming video, complete with students dressed up in the 21st century's interpretation of 70s fashion (a Stalinesque rewriting of history if ever I saw one: if you *really* want to look authentically 70s, stop using skin and hair products and live solely on Findus Crispy Pancakes for a year or so). And finally, seeing as we're all hip with teh internets now, video interviews from Faceculture with Richard and the usually shy and retiring Bob, which I haven't watched yet but appear charmingly like watching a Dutch version of Parkinson. Seeing Bob talk is a bit of a surprise. It's a bit like watching a badger who you've spent years peeking at through infrared cameras on your lawn at night suddenly stand up in a hat and coat and hold a press conference. Also Forbidden Planet in Edinburgh wished me to mention that they'll have that Bumper Book of B&S Cartoons in soon. Sadly, none of these nudges I get come with freebies enticing me to publicise them. You can interpret that as either me proudly stating that the list remains fiercely independent, or me moaning a bit. I bet if I was running the James Blunt list I'd be deluged with tasty foodstuffs and shiny little presents all the time. I liked Alexis Petridis's piece from the Guardian, it made me giggle a little and it's nice to see B&S fans still characterised as fiercely loyal and venomous nutters. I thought that view was becoming unfashionable since those halcyon days five years ago when the NME called us a peculiarly deranged fanbase and sick posse of f**ked in the head psycho-fans as immortalised in the footer (their peculiarly prudish asterisks, not mine).

Sinister: The Life Pursuit on iTunes US?
by Ben Harper 07 Feb '06

07 Feb '06

For some reason, the Funny Little Frog single isn't available on iTunes here in the US, and now, as of today, when TLP was released here, it's not available as well. Is it just me? Seems kind of odd. By the way, is the bonus DVD worth picking up? I think they're selling it in three different formats...not sure what my local record store is going to be carrying, though... --Ben +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
