Hey kid-os. I got the new B+S Press Kit from Matador, just thought I'd type
up some of the nifty quotes in it. This is all probably repetitive and
droll, but hey, that's me...

"Belle and Sebastian are the new kings of the kind of teen-innocence porn
that make indie-rock fans cry 'mama.'"
-Rolling Stone, September 17, 1998

"Introspective and introverted, deeply artful and fiercely protective of
their art, these young Scots inspire the sort of irrational devotion you'd
think only lapsed Smith fans could muster--and, in most cases, you'd be
exactly right."

"These fledgling charms, not to mention the band's stubbornly winsome image
(their web site currently boasts a coloring contest, for fuck's sake), ...."
-Village Voice, September, 15, 1998

Well, the rest is just really old stuff, but I figured someone might
appreciate these bits of humor.  Alright, cheers.
