Sinister: I've got no enthusiasm to even answer the phone...
by Keith Watson 29 Jan '98

>> Just been watching the NME Brat awards show on Channel 4 >> Arab Strap are absolute shite!!! >> Their set consisted of one fat Scottish bloke sitting on a stool and >> SAYING crap lyrics and then a pointless, non melodic crappy chorus of >> plain old guitars >> As I heard in "DreamTeam" yesterday.... >> "What a bunch of strokers" Only time I saw Arab Strap was supporting B+S at the Moir Hall (in Manchester I was too busy drinking to watch them), and the main problem to me was that you couldn't hear what was going on, not a misunderstanding problem (I lived in Falkirk for 6 years - believe me, his accent's very posh compared to what it could've been), the guitar was all out of tune too which didn't help. I don't think they're bad, but I don't think they're that good either, I do think they get a disproportionate amount of press for what they are, I don't know how they're going to sustain interest just doing that sort speaky over guitar chord stuff. Having said that, their remix of David Holmes' "Don't Die just Yet" is brilliant, and by far and away the best thing they've done, reminds me of De la Soul. "The Clearing" I thought I liked until I realised i was playing it at the wrong speed, and playing it at the correct speed seemed to dullen it a bit. I do like Mogwai though, I think they'd be even better if they did collaborations with singers perhaps, as again, I think it'd be pretty tricky to continue much longer just doing the same thing. Another Glasgow band who seem to have been very much overlooked in the recent cases of overexposure are Long Fin Killie, who make a dead nice Bark Psychosis-esque noise which is really good, Luke's voice is amazing, although unfortunately they've just split up. Keith. Also, the person who was talking about A Century of Elvis.. I don't doubt for a second this was heavily inspired by Arab Strap. Which brings me on to another point, are B+S really all acting members of the T.A.? :) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

> Just a quick note on a couple of matters. Firstly, has anyone >else tried Ben F's Age game. HOW COOL IS THAT?? Way cool, I reckon. How >the hell does any one do any thing like that? Not only was it a good >laugh, but it also restored my faith in my abilities of mental >arithmetic. Cheers Ben. If you haven't tried it yet, seek it out and >maybe give it ago... I tried it to...I've seen ones like that before,I wonder..who makes them up? Do they jstu sit there for days and days and days and come up with it..or are they jsut simple rules of mathematics...right now I HATE MATH. Come monday night and I shall be banished to the basement by my parents. First they will give me the sad stares,then they will kill me. About the whole thing about music types and such...well my mom likes B&S,and that's a pretty good sign,when she thinks most of my music's crap (she's classical) once I put on the Verve and she yelled at me because she wanted B&S instead. It would be nice to have a star on my shoulder right now. Genevieve :( ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Tigermilk solution
by northy 28 Jan '98

28 Jan '98

Right okey dokey The band haven't got time to promote a rerelease of Tigermilk Fine Then the simple solution is to release it as a bonus CD on their new album. The people who have to constantly make tapes must be getting *very* annoyed by now and also feeling unsafe in their beds for the prospect of a MacHamburglar stealing their precious copy. And also doesn't Vinyl wear out if you use it too much? Isn't this also unfair on our Tigermilk owning friends. (ps. Small Record Shop ad. in NME) Modern Rock Song due Feb? Dave and Katrina please confirm?!?
