hello,

just popping my head up as i've had questions about the following, so hope this helps you all ...

*sheet music*
there will be a book available by the end of this month containing all the sheet music for 'fold your hands child, you walk like a peasant' which you can order online from www.musicsales.com  for the rest of the albums, there will be a book available around the end of the year with the tabs + chords for 'tigermilk', 'if you're feeeling sinister' and 'the boy with the arab strap' and the first three ep's 'dog on wheels', 'lazy line painter jane' and '3..6..9 seconds of light'  again this will be available from music
sales.  in the uk, i think most big hmv/virgin/tower shops which have sheet music sections will stock the books as well as some musical instrument/sheet music shops.

not until 2001 ... sorry.

Karl Smith's lilting vocals are highly mannered and phrased, Pete Cohen's nearly subsonic bowed bass skitters and scrapes the bottom of their well of loneliness, laying an inconsistent foundation to their precise arrangements of trumpet, acoustic guitar, and barely any drums. To say that it (already) appeals to the myriad of Belle and Sebastian fans doesn't go too far-- theirs is a similar sort of delicacy that both B&S (some of whom assisted on one of Sodastream's EPs) and the more finely-grained, less flailing of the late '80s Flying Nun groups (Robert Scott's work in particular) have or had. At the same time, the influence of Nick Drake, more pervasive than ever, permeates at least the singing style, if not the forthright sensitivity (Sodastream hold their cards closer to their chest): though their hands aren't open, nor are they scarred. There's a deja-vu here, though: they've wri!

tten melodies you somehow already know. Even with too many Jesus references, it's a great album. [RE]
