Sinister: This is just a post modern rock post

[Joe Vester]

I have decided that what I like about Sinister is the way in which it is 
both loveably naive while remaining sensibly cynical. All the happy stuff on
it is somehow bittersweet and all the sad stuff is still sort of upbeat.
Also, everyone on it is kind of well, Sinister (in the good sense (take note
of parenthesesesesesees)) and is the kind of person who didn't get on well
at school.
    Must invent some B&S content so I'm going to pretend I saw Chris Geddes
and Isobel Cambell in the street in London, that being where I live (even
though I don't know what they look like). "Really?" I hear you cry. No, not
really, that why I said I was going to *pretend* that I had seen them. Maybe
I'll say they were snogging. That would cause a stir, wouldn't it? Ok, no,
it wouldn't then, be like that. I did, though, tape Jonathan David off the
radio and can now listen to it whenever I want. Of course, come Monday I
will be able to do that anyway but who cares.
    Peter Miller mentioned the Master and Margarita which is a very good
book and my favourite in the whole world. Mikail Bulgakov was very talented
and all of his books are amazing. Especially The White Guard. Read it, NOW.
I am re-reading The Hitchiker's guide in respect to it's late author.
    Can someone explain to me the subtle inflections of Albums, Singles, LPs
and EPs as I have never understood which is which really.
    I have rediscovered Jazz and Mercury Rev. I possibly prefer the latter
but Jazz is so good and varied. There really isn't any other kind of music
which is so varied within itself while still having a central core. Pop and
stuff all sound the same, Rock is varied but it varies so much in some
places that it becomes separate. I luv Jazz. I also, in a fit of music
Kleptomania taped a Mercury Rev song off the radio which is due to come out
in August and I play it so loud on the tube that people keep staring at me
like I was some violent thug. It scares me, but not enough to stop me from
playing it very loudly.
    More singles debates. Just to start one, here is provocative statement:
All Belle and Sebastian singles are rubbish. I don't beleive it but pretend
I do and then you can get all hot under the collar.
    I hope that one or two of you haven't comitted suicide and spilt blood
all over your keyboard,

Joe
