Hello all of you, It's me, I'm back again, having been severly beaten by dearest Duke in a playground fight I went running home and eventually I feel brave enough to enter the playground again. Not that I've been ignoring you though, I've been standing at the gates looking through via the archives every now and then. And it was a mail from my favorite list mummy that made me return. Well forced me to return, actually, seeing as none of you would have been able to read my comments of immense wisdom (hahaha, some chance) unless I resubbed. I'm already feeling at home again here, with the first mail I recieved listing the top 12 albums of 98, nothings changed then. A few new faces but otherwise were all the same old bunch. I love you all. I am very sad to have missed out on all the undies chat though:( Great news about tigermilk, and even better news about the 3 new albums from B&S and its members. I can already hear the shouts of "how can the release ofthe gentle waves album be better news than tigermilk being rereleased?" Well here is the explanation..... If StuD and Isobel managed to release all their creative juices ivia their side projects then they aren't going to feel the need to shove their stuff on a new B&S album and thus we get a proper good old StuM album (ok and a little from stevie but we can't complain). I'd just like to make the point that I don't think the other 2 are bad (in fact what I've heard from both of the is pretty good, Columbo's car by looper is damn fine) but I love the way that tigermilk and sinister flow in a way that TBWTAS doesn't just because the first 2 albums are just StuM. Thanks for listening to me, and welcoming me back with such open arms jake (the listee formerly know as kenny) +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
