Wow! Sinister has gone full circle... You all used to be pissy school kids living off Lambrini, crisps and snarlies. Now you're all piss-ridden pensioners wearing retro Jimmy Saville tracksuits and pushing tartan shopping trollies, full of rotting vegetables and converted by your grandchildren from sadly neglected dogs on wheels. After Uni your careers promised so much but you still ended up working in HMV in some backwater, because you weren't quite cool enough to get a job in the second-hand vinyl shop. Spongebob Squarepants The Movie and High School Musical 128(bpm) have long-since been remade and Bollywood are working on a 75th anniversary 4-D remake of Dirty Dancing but you'll never get to see it on your £25 a week state pension, you can't even afford the deposit on the glasses. Top of the download long-player charts is The Back Sides, a collection of all the previously unreleased material from those members of 90's pop gods Belle and Sebastian who left to pursue marginally more boring and unsuccessful careers. Rumour has it, the remaining 73 members of the band are working on some new material that we can expect to be released some time in the next 8 years... ...or so it seems. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
