Sinister: TO BRIAN FROM EDINBURGH
by Sami Keinanen 12 Jan '98

12 Jan '98

Hello, Brian. It is nice to hear you liked staying in Jyväskylä. It's quite a familiar town, because I have some friends living in there. One of them is also studying in Jyväskylä university. I live in Turku which is lies in southwest part of Finland - in case you're interested. I study media and journalism, but not in university. I would love to visit Scotland. We were in London with my girlfriend few weeks ago and it was a jolly good trip. A couple of years ago I spend new year's eve in Ireland in Mullingar. That was - shall I say - quite intresting. What Smiths documentary you saw in Vakiopaine. It's also one of my favorite bands. Hope to hear more from you, Brian.

Sinister: Are we in the presence of something really special? I think so.
by Northy 12 Jan '98

12 Jan '98

I got a phone call from a friend a minute ago. He said that on a whim he bought 'If You are Feeling Sinister' from HMV. (to see what all the fuss I was making was about). He loves it and now wants to borrow my three EPs. Shall I let him? Well I have a tape of the BBC sessions now and Tigermilk is coming (or is it Steve?) so I think I will. The word is growing. Oh and I think someone who has a huge collection of music said they have a rack of 24 cds and stuff which he/she listens to the most. just out out interest - what is in the 24? Convert Count - 2 and growing..... Northy Isn't it weird - you want as many of your friends to hear B&S as possible but wouldn't you hate it if everyone liked them and you were just another fan.........I think this.......I don't want to be just another faceless fan. We are priveleged. Let us enjoy our position while we can ________________________________________________________________________ ``Don't be afraid to take a big step.

Sinister: if you wanna be a star.....tell a monkey where you are!
by Northy 11 Jan '98

11 Jan '98

> Oh, and Rialto's new single went ibnto the charts at 20, and apparently > the album is due in March. I'm sorry buy why has this bloody Rialto song got so much attention recently? It is very, very shit. Monday Morning 5:19 was millions of times better. If you don't agree on an opinion basis at least look at it on a musical basis. The song has no melody. It has a moderately catchy beat but the chorus!!!! What is it? Some bloke shouting Untouchable to hide the fact that their is no melody there. I really am flabbergasted about how this song gets so much attention! Tell you what though - Rialto have been appearing on everything from Planet Sound to TFI Friday.....and I tell you what.....they speak **** bye Northy ___________________________________________________ ``Don't be afraid to take a big step.

Here's a wry observation. Have you noticed how if you put a Tory on a mailing list, he starts warbling on about keeping politics out of it. Guilty conscience, I reckon.

> OK, I'll start, > Steve Reich i've heard of Steve Wright, would that count? > Loudon Wainwright III Um, heard of London?!?! > John Fahey My cousin is called John. here's a few of mine: Dexter Gordon - out of dexdexter? ooh, i remeber Romo.... Jon Hassell - Les Baxter - Ena's husband? Ernest Tubb - sounds like a bath tub maker to me I feel so mainstream :) heres some of my top pop artistes. Manics Super Furries Gorkys Dogmanstar suede, not as much Coming Up suede. not intensely intense enough really. but the most pop MUSIC album i own really. i got it cos it was six quid at the Zoo. hmmm. St Etienne John Shuttleworth Spiritualized Tom Jones Radiohead heehe. and may i say that i HATE bjork. and as for catatonia, cerys might as well be bjork but without the beats. bjork and the dullards? i liked Bleed, i saw them on TFI and wanted to shoot them. hmmm. no doubt i may change my mind soon. i tend to often. eg i bought the ADF cd on last thurs. hated it. listened to it again sat and thought it was great. ooh the shallowality of it all.
