Sinister: writing frightening verse to a bucktooth gurl in luxembourg *smiths quote subject line no 345732*
1: nessa has a whinge I'm feeling a wee bit down for some reason I don't really understand. my exams are nearly finished and its officially summer. It could have something to do w/ the fact I haven't gotten any non mailing list mail in about 2 weeks. I'm putting a hex on people who haven't e mailed me back in yonks as I type. Plus I haven't gotten post in days. Or many phone calls. And god it makes me feel miserable. I saw the video for the delgados' american trilogy last night. they're very into the cycling thing still, most bands w/ outside obsessions lose them after the first album. I'm impressed. I got a video of Smiths videos for xmas and I was really disappointed w/ it, I watched it for the first time today. b+s have the knack of epitomising the song in their videos, or they used to. I haven't seen the one for legal man yet. anyway, most of the videos the smiths did didn't. the video for Ask was probably pretty trendy looking at the time but the kleidung etc made me cringe now. 2: nessa get confus-sed
he has his septum pierced
when I read that first I thought of the septum of the heart rather than the septum of the nose. It took me a minute to realise what she meant. Apparantly someone who used to be in eastenders has no more septum due to too much of the white stuff. And thats not flour. and, ehh, what the fuck is an ampallang? do I want to know? nessa +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.

I would have to agree with you on the Smiths video's.....simply horrible, with the exception of that movie that goes along with The queen is dead.The one i own is The complete picture, it takes place for the most part in some terrible 80's dance club with red and blue lights(shudder).I dont know what vid of theirs gets my vote, perhaps How soon is now....the wonderful blue tint is quite lovely. ----- Original Message ----- From: nessa <nessamalone@eircom.net> To: Sinister List <sinister@missprint.org> Sent: Thursday, June 15, 2000 2:36 PM Subject: Sinister: writing frightening verse to a bucktooth gurl in luxembourg *smiths quote subject line no 345732* the

Hello, i just found this article on nme.com. Hope you haven't read it yet... Cheers Stéphane ------------------------------------- BELLE AND SEBASTIANs album "FOLD YOUR HANDS CHILD, YOU WALK LIKE A PEASANT have crossed over from the underground charts in the US into the mainstream of the BILLBOARD HOT 100. It is the US equivalent of the Top 40, based on a combination of record sales and radio play. Billboards assistant chart production manager, Alex Vitoulis, told nme.com that the album entering the chart at Number 80 this week was a significant step up for the band in the States. Up-and-coming acts are usually included in the Heatseekers chart. When a band graduates to the Top 200 in the Billboard chart, it is a step into the mainstream. But to leap straight into the Top 100 is rare. He said: "Once an artist is hot they reach the Top 100... it is considered mainstream, that means you have reached a wider audience and are well-known. Belle And Sebastians album was expected to go into the Heatseekers because they are an underground band. So this is a bigger deal because of that." He added that the buzz about the band Stateside is growing rapidly. The album, which came out in the States through Matador records on June 6, is already selling faster than their last album The Boy With The Arab Strap, with 17,000 copies sold in the first week. ...Arab Strap has sold 84,000 copies since it was released in 1998. A band spokesperson said this morning (June 15) that they were delighted when they heard the news yesterday: "Going in at number 80 in America is pretty unheard of for a British band." She also added that despite mounting pressure for them to tour in the States, both the UK and American dates which had been slated for August and September are likely to now be delayed until the end of the year. Meanwhile the band have unveiled the video for album track The Wrong Girl in the States, but a spokesperson said it would not be released as a single, they just decided to make a video for it - the band have famously never released an album track as a single. Speaking on www.mtv.com, drummer Richard Colburn explained the video for the song, penned by guitarist Stevie Jackson. He said: "The video was based around him being born and going through all the stages of his life, yknow, having girlfriends that werent quite right and then ending up with the girlfriend he has now, who hopefully is the right girl as opposed to the wrong girl." +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
