Sinister: party people

[keith mclachlan]

i read the freaky trigger bit, it is more of the whole
music as an empirical science type of writing,
quantifying his own opinions to support a subjective
conclusion or something.  it is incredibly arrogant to
assume he has the facts and he needs to set the record
straight for anyone who might think that belle and
sebastain had more than 1 or 2 tunes in them.  ugh.

i am not surprised that the clientele are bashing
belle and sebastian, likely they do not want the
burden of the belle and sebastian mob.  sure i love
belle and sebastian and the fans are mostly lovely
people  but most articles about the band can not
escape a mention of the fans, the sad fans, the weepy
pathetic boys and the rest of the lot.  maybe the
clientele would like to be judged on their music, but
then when has a band ever achieved thatin particularly
with the british press.  truth is that the clientele
are far more twee than b&s to my ears, and to those
same ears i don't understand any comparisons between
the two bands so who knows why i am relating my
feelings about them. 

does this binobo person choose this name because in
relation to the rest of his body are his testicles
massive?

the new edwin moses lp is a party on plastic in an
incredibly lovely package, siesta always has the most
stylish digipacks but this one is just exquisite and
the music while entirely composed of cover
versions(masterfully executed plan there) is just
sensational, should be since all of the songs they
chose are classic slices of soul apparently done by
edwin moses the soul singer not the high hurdler.  if
you are too lazy to search out the originals(like
myself) pick up this tribute record instead, just
gorgeous!  

only 5 days until the fairways live:)  haven't seen
them since the seo hui popfest, of course everyone
should buy their album too.  oh but forget bright
eyes, i have been reading the list for a bit and a few
people have talked up his brilliance, i imagine these
are 15 and 16 year old girls, he cries in most of his
songs probably distraught because his aunt crocheted
him a teal afghan instead of a mauve tea cozy. little
conner is good for a laugh though because anyone that
serious surely can't be taken even the slightest bit
seriously.
