Sinister: Is it Wicked Not to Care?
So, I guess some people are interested in knowing more about me (well, probably not, but everyone else talks only about themselves, so why can't I?) This is going to be shocking to many and will probably irk even more people than I have already irked, but, I am a punk rock goddess! I know, calm down. I sure this is most shocking to the kid that wants to scold the Northampton punk with coffee. So, you're probably all thinking, "Then why are you on this list," or "How do you like Belle and Sebastian." Simple: Belle and Sebastian (I hate to say this) like the Smiths or the Velvet Underground, atract all kinds of depressed, socially outcasted people (or whatever else). I was drawn to them when my boss (I work at Strangeways, affiliated with Spinnaker, but in Provincetown, MA. I'll write more about my shitty little town some other time) gave me "...Sinister" for my birthday. I didn't listen to it for awhile, even though he had written a long letter along with it explaing what a sensitive person I am and how the album is perfect for me (I know many will disagree). But then my once friend and mentor forced me to listen to it. I couldn't get into it because she's, how should I say this...insane, overly-talkitive, a bit creepy in her infatuation with my boss. She started working there just to get next to him. Any way, I finally listened to it alone. I thought it was so great. It hought, 'WHy isn't this huge?! This should be so huge that I shouldn't even listen to it.' I'm very much against main-stream. Oh, too bad, I have to go. I'll continue this at some other time, unless people complain (and I know they will). ...CARMEN... +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

Hello! This is going to be shocking to
many and will probably irk even more people than I have already irked, but, I am a punk rock goddess! I know, calm down. I sure this is most shocking to the kid that wants to scold the Northampton punk with coffee.
Yeah yeah, bonkers man!!! A Punk Rock Godess who likes Belle and Sebastian.... keerazeeeee! There I was thinking B&S fans could only like The Field Mice and Duran Duran, but blimey my horizons have expanded!! Sorry! But, you know...what are you on about when you talk about 'punk' - shitty KERRANG! punk or, like...77 era punk? Shit, Belle and Sebastian fans INTRODUCED me to say, Buzzcocks, Big Flame etc - I just find it daft to think that people can't like two different types of music, or three, or nine or whatever! So, you're probably all thinking,
"Then why are you on this list," or "How do you like Belle and Sebastian."
No, me at least is thinking, why does this need stating? YOu said people would complain about what you said...what, people would complain about the fact that you like differnent types of music? If they did then they just stink of pedal pushers. I would complain if by 'punk' you meant RANCID or Insane 'very very silly boyz' Clown Posse, but merely cos they are very very pisspoor indeed and I would like to take away ICP's 'faygo' and watch them weep like big ol' smellheads!!! Anyway, I think B&S are one of the most punk rock groups around so there. More punk than fecking Goop Dogrill....what is their name? Groop Dogsmell?!?! HO HO HO wasn't that funny, ok....no.....i shall go....a far distance from here.... No offence intended to you Carmen but it's that idea of youcanonlylikeONEtypeofmusic that really bugs me. Can you projectile vomit long distances? That would win my admiration I am sure. Do you have a big huge mohican like the punks who tried to 'pull' with me and my friend the other day by stating 'hey girls we're lesbians do you want it?' and waving cans of special brew at us.... Me, I do not want to be a punk or a hippy. I want to be, a tomato.... (OK, so UK list dudes have to remember that advert for....oh whatever, the one with the dude going 'i want to be, a treee!' and the old lady goes 'i want to be in congolmerates', ALliance and Lester was it?? Some bank type thing...or the Co-op...) I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!!

KERRANG!
Which reminded me of meeting bob, the bass player from top notch edinburgh band Idlewild, on friday. After signing my ticket for me, I explained to him how good it would look beside my flat's safeway reciept signed by the stereophonics on our kitchen wall. And he replied, " I fucking hate the stereophonics, they stole a kerrang award from us." What an interesting story that is colin, yes indeediedoo! I can highly recomend the idlewild live experience, to balance out the RAWK! nature of the gig I wore my lovely study at stow T-shirt, the ultimate mosh pit weapon. colin. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list please mail "sinister@majordomo.net".

I'm very much into old Brit-punk. My favorite of all time is Crass. I love anything like them too, Conflict, Stratford Mercenaries. I like the American stuff too: Dead Kennedys, the Pist, G.G. Allin, I do like the Queers, I like Rancid too, but I don't call that punk, I usualy call it pop-punk like the Queers, but the Queers are a thousand times better, just because of their black humor; I don't really like the Ramones though. I like local punk bands the most, Nobody's Hero's, Social Virus, the Freeze. The list could go on and on.
So, you're probably all thinking,
"Then why are you on this list," or "How do you like Belle and Sebastian."

People are like that. They don't like people who are different from them. That's why there is so much racism and other forms of hatred in this world. ICP is considered punk? That's scary.
Anyway, I think B&S are one of the most punk rock groups around so there. Definately. More punk than fecking Goop Dogrill....what is their name? Groop Dogsmell?!?! HO HO HO wasn't that funny, ok....no.....i shall go....a far distance from here....
No offence intended to you Carmen but it's that idea of youcanonlylikeONEtypeofmusic that really bugs me. That doesn't sit well with me either because I never have. I listen to a lot of Classical and Jazz. Punk is basically my lifesytle.
Can you projectile vomit long distances? That would win my admiration I am sure. Do you have a big huge mohican like the punks who tried to 'pull' with me and my friend the other day by stating 'hey girls we're lesbians do you want it?' and waving cans of special brew at us....
I used to have a big red mohawk. I kinda look normal now only because I'm over how much effort it takes to maintain that 'look'
Me, I do not want to be a punk or a hippy. I want to be, a tomato.... (OK, so UK list dudes have to remember that advert for....oh whatever, the one with the dude going 'i want to be, a treee!' and the old lady goes 'i want to be in congolmerates', ALliance and Lester was it??

It's not that I really want to be a punk, it's just seems that if I had to be put in a category, I'd probably be put there.
I'M GOING NOW BYE!!!!!! Fluffy Candarel
