Sinister: music week review

Can't quite remember it word for word, but it goes something like this:

Bands that challenge the status quo will always cause arguments, and nothing
on this record is going to silence Belle and Sebastian's detractors. But
their quiet approach yields 12 songs that have to be listened to... a
timeless classic.

No sitting on the fence there, then. I'd like to see B and S challenge
Status Quo to a fight. Really like the review in Rolling Stone, as well. I
hope Mojo give the record a nice review, since it's the magazine for Nick
Drake fans.

Could anyone do me a tape of the new Mercury Rev record? Their last one was
one of the best records I've ever heard. I bought Grasshopper's record in
the hope it might be great, but it's pretty lame.

Take care,

DAVID
