Sinister: monkeys
by jjm＠mblab.gla.ac.uk 05 Dec '97

05 Dec '97

Has anyone else experienced the strength of feeling against B&S? I have to keep my taped copy of Tigermilk safely locked away to prevent my flat-mates (the monkeys ) from throwing out in front of the no. 8 bus. This bus goes past my flat and turns up into Byres road(glasgow), a frequent place of band member sightings. Riding along on city buses for a hobby may be sad but it also be destructive to prized record collections. My flat was recently broken into and the bastards stole My copy of sinister and all 3 summer eps. Thankfully they my beloved tape. A friend of my flat mate has an original Tigermilk and he had offered to put it onto cd, but the baffon tryed to clean this priceless record with of all things after shave. This did not add anything to the sound quality. It is now in the hands of a chemist friend. Jamie. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: today's guardian

(or yesterday's if this mail takes as long to get to the list as the last one did making me look a complete fool in the process as katrina had already answered the same question posed by someone else. actually, making me look like a complete fool doesn't take much anyway...) ****************************** * relevant stuff begins here * ****************************** anyway, jo whiley as fallen for 'if you're feeling sinister' as her record of the year (2nd actually, radiohead was first, the verve was third) despite it being released last year. she says: 'genius music made by people who don't give a fig about fitting into any musical trend' which i think we'd all agree with most of... *********************** * and ends here, sigh * *********************** um, i think i like more of the 'dance' cds they choose above the 'rock' cds. (made me laugh when i bought that autechre cd earlier this year and it had 'soul and dance' on the sticker on the back of it) actually, the whole of today's G2 is worth a read as it goes over their fave videos, books, video games, lps (etc) of the year and they usually have good taste. good timing too seeing as ma is starting to pester me about what i want for christmas. (a sony mzr30 would be nice ma, if you're reading this. i doubt it'll happen though. will end up buying it myself. again) hey, if belle and sebastian were a pantomime which one would it be? andy arse, just seen that 'the children's hour' is on this afternoon and i didn't set the video - shirley maclaine and audrey hepburn as two lesbian teachers... no, behave, it's not how it sounds, it's a classic b&w thing. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

None

>1. Does anyone know when The Acid House is coming out and what B&S track is > going to be on the soundtrack? The Acid House Trilogy is due for release in Jan/Feb 98, the last I heard. The B&S track on the soundtrack is called 'Soft Touch'. You might also be interested to hear that Irvine Welsh just finished his new novel a week or two ago and it's at the publishers now. Finally I have one question, will the track 'Rhoda' finally appear on the 'Just A Modern Rock Song' EP? Cheers, John. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: my mate - minimal B&S content - you have been warned
by Johnston, John CT 05 Dec '97

05 Dec '97

All , I was shocked and horrified when I heard that certain members of our favourite pop combo prefered Vegemite to Marmite. I was poised to resign from the fan club ; cast out all my records and burn my demented play-group leader's tee-shirt; thankfully I remembered that they make the most wonderfull music I've ever heard so I stepped back from the brink. The Tsimshian Indians of British Columbia have a saying "In the land of Yeast Extract - the Marmite Man is King". Marmite is the food of the Gods - or at least you'd be forgiven for thinking so. In fact it's the only commercially succesfull spin off of the British space program. In the 1950s BASTARD (British Aero-Space Technology And Research Department) were developping a revolutionary yeast-fusion engine. Unfortunately it never got off the ground and British attempts to get a budgerigar in space to mark the coronation of Elizabeth II came to nothing. Eventualy our efforts were superceded by the Russian and American programs who had taken the, at the time, controversial non-yeast approach. But the boffins in the lab did have one result - namely the discovery of Marmite. An interesting footnote here is that the original name for this product was Cock Fun, it only became known as Marmite by the personal intervention of Her Majesty Queen Elizabrth, the Queen Mother. How bizarre is that! xx john ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

Sinister: gol!
by Johnston, John CT 05 Dec '97

Yes! Yes! Yes! to Belle and Sebastian doing the Scotland World Cup Song. I have a feeling this is going to be Scotlands best ever World Cup and with some soaraway single behind them it can only be a glorious summer for these sons of Rawk (sorry). But I fear the SFA will only consent to a record that features the name Donnie Munro prominently on it somewhere. Perhaps they could call it "Donnie Munro".... I'm feeling wildly chipper today! I've finished a big project at work, the play I'm in is going really well and my mate came to see it last night. After the show the conversation somehow came round to Belle and Sebastian and how absolutely heart-breakingly-surly-bond-slippingly-pop-tastically great they are. xx john ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Sinister: Readers Poll
by Sven Fuchs 05 Dec '97

05 Dec '97

Hi, someone posted the address for the nme readers poll yesterday so we all could vote b&s as best of every single category (e.g. best male solo artist: Sebastian, best female solo artist: Belle). Does anyone know if something similar exists for the melody maker? Sven ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
