Hi list! Well, since i've got some time to spare, I decided to spare it with you. Godd idea, isnt it? So, a few answers and remarks and things about... well, you'll see. duke of harringay wrote:
i agree with whoever said that it doesn't matter that all their songs sound 'similar', because there's always been a formula in the best Pop
The Duke is right, once again (it's funny how he manages to express things the way I never could, even if I had the same opinion...) However, he was talking about the Pastels, one of my favourite bands, and I thought I could add something (even if it's not directly related to Belle and Sebastian...) Their last album, "Illumination", doesnt sound AT ALL like the others. It's much slower, cleaner, with nice melancolic sounds. It seems they've grown older, but for the better. Something else. Various listees have asked questions about the Black sessions (or satanic sessions, according to Mr Dastoor). May be this could be added to the List's FAQ, sinc many new listees have asked what it was. The Black Sessions are organised by Bernard Lenoir, kind of "french John Peel". The bands play a gig in the studios in front of 200 people (more or less), and the gig is broadcasted live on the french radio France Inter. Belle and Sebastian played such a session on october 5th 1998 (just a day before their "real" concert, at La Cigale). Thanks to the tonight broadcast on Radio1, most of the listees (at least living in Britain) wont have to ask for tapes anymore. For the others (living in Europe, since many american people must have a tape), well, e-mail me privately and I'll see what I can do... Brier Random wrote:
Who was Cana? Besides the start of something Big?
Well, funny question, indeed. Just read the Bible! (a clue: it's not "who", it's "what"...)
