Sinister: b+s content ahead on left...watch your step
hello...oh there you are, this is my second official post. i am feeling very unsure of myself at this moment. right. the reason i am writing. oh yes. living in the states now, and being an artist myself i have begun to receive andy warhol's interview magazine. well anyway...in the new issue, if anyone cares, is a right up of fyhcywlap. i shall now transcribe the "sound advice" for all of you lucky readers: "Belle and Sebastian create chamber-pop that's as subtle as a whisper and smart as a whip-and sometimes just as painful. On their fourth album, the Scottish indie-rockers rummage through the obsolete sonic detritus of past musical eras, with each song layered with harpsichords, kitsch-pop strings, and spaghetti-western horns plucked right out of an Ennio Morricone soundtrack. Still, it's Belle and Sebastian's lyrical narratives that remain timeless. In the hands of vocalists Stuart Murdoch and Isobel Campbell, melancholy becomes more than a feeling-it's more like sublimity." i'll leave you all to draw your own conclusions, and i apologize if many of you are already acquainted with the above. goodbye for now. robert "please do not understand me too quickly"-andre gide +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
