sinisters i was sitting on the train yesterday morning at four am, coming home after a late brilliant show with modest mouse. and i come to wonder something about our friends belle and sebastian. how has the release of tigermilk effected your thoughts about them? i was wondering, has the magic gone away? is there less mysticism about the band, or is that just a dumb idea popping into my head? i know there is a lot of different aspects of the re-release. for one, i now hear "she's losing it" all the time on the radio. whats the deal with that? i wouldn't be suprised if tigermilk pops up as one of this weeks most played records on p3 (swedish radio). i was almost choking myself the other morning when i had my cup of tea and i picked up the local white trash paper in which they compared the release of tigermilk to to the release of the new star wars movie. it obviously also got five stars. next to three four country records being reviewed. i now what you are all thinking, "well now atleast everyone is able of hearing this masterpiece" and i'm obviously aware of this and i defianly think everyone should. this has nothing to do with the fact that i liked being the only boy in school who had tigermilk and that all the girls begged me to tape it for them, aye. obviously now they won't. but it is not about that, it's about the tale of belle and sebastian, brutally changing or should i say, evolving? i'm probably make you all hate me even more, but i'm actually looking towards on hearing the new arab strap cd "elephant shoe" more then hearing the new belle and sebastian album (ooh well, let's just call it "the boy with the arab strap 2") - and i'm basing this on that unfortunatly i may fear that belle and sebastian are not evolving as good as arab strap, seeing that philophobia was better then the boy with the arab strap and if you're feeling sinister was better then the weekend never starts around here. and to be honest with you, i don't know if i like "winter wooskielf" and "family tree" that much. but i'm probably wrong cuz no one has ever done a record as good as tigermilk, so now i'm going to quit, calm down, ok? i'm over the counter productive culture, johan = sinister bakushi@hayfever.net www.hayfever.net __________redblueyellowrecordings____________ ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
