Sinister: The Haughtiness of the Mediocre Rocker
Is it just my tastes, or has the recording industry hatched a massive plot to relieve us all of our wallets this month? I'm not just talking about the 50 track Ultimate Doo Wop collection due out today either. If you're none too happy about the marketing of Legal Man, check out Clientele, managing to recycle tracks off of TWO previous singles for their scrumptious e.p.! Despite my fondness for the band, I wondered if they qualified as fey (even before it was used to describe B&S), but I was suprised to find that the Dictionary thinks it's 1) Scottish for DOOMED; marked by a foreboding of death or calamity 2) able to see into the future, and only 3) a) precious b)unconventional or campy so once again, the English language has managed to completely confound me. I don't think it's been mentioned on the list, but Clientele will be playing Saturday at the Fez in NYC ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
