i haven't read it yet but i heard it refers to Felt's 'The World Is As Soft As Lace' as "an instrumental". Hey! with journalistic accuracy of such high order, what hopes do you have for the rest of it?! Nice cover though. Anyone here also on the indiepop list? there's been a thread there about listing order of fave B&S albums (most have agreed not to include Barman cos it's a compilation... ). Anyone want to pitch in here with their thoughts? Here's my order, just for a laugh: 1. Sinsiter 2. Catastrophe 3. Tigermilk 4. Arab Strap 5. Fold 6. Storytelling um, now i'm off out to ride my bike :-) The Duke www.unpopular-records.com the most unpopular records ever po box 102, exeter, ex4 6yz, uk On 17 Aug 2005, at 11:48, stacey dahling wrote:

Yeah, I'm on the indiepop list too and have been following the discussion. It's been fun, although after a while you do pray for a list that has Storytelling at the top...! My six, for what it's worth, are as follows 1 Sinister 2 Tigermilk 3 Catastraphe 4 Fold 5 Arab Strap 6 Storytelling It's a strange one. I have warmed to Electronic Renaissance slightly over the years, but generally I tend to skip it if I'm playing Tigermilk. If ER wasn't on there, then Tigermilk would be number one in my list. It's still a terrific record, even with this weird, out of character song slap bang in the middle of it. I do wonder if Stuart has any other faux-Field Mice electronic songs from that period in the vaults somewhere. An album of those would be...well, interesting! Not long to go until the Sinister show now. Someone else on the indiepop list mentioned that they'd never seen a B&S live show that included any songs from Sinister. Well, next month should change all of that...! I haven't read Paul's book, but that Felt mistake is a bit of a howler. Shame. He's a good writer and I'm sure he's done a fine job - it's all too easy to focus on mistakes like that, which a good editor should have picked up on. In a parallel world where I had a bit more motivation, I might have liked to have written that book. Or one like it at least. Oddly enough I had "The World Is As Soft As Lace" with me at the last HDIF, as I was going to play "I Don't Love Anyone" and I thought it would be a nice touch. But I didn't get around to playing it, stupidly. I'll play it on Friday instead...! It feels funny typing on here, but it's nice to read Sinister posts again. Something comforting about it. Hope you're all well and enjoying the sunshine. Here in the UK, it's sweltering. Our four days of summer are finally here...! x +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
