Free Music Review: If You're Feeling Sinister
Hit: 5 Stars
Lots has been said in the other reviews already here on Amazon. But it still deserves another 5-star rating. This album is excellent.
I like all 10 songs - my favorites probably being tracks 1,2,5,6,7,8 and 9. I think this album might not be as immediately satisfying as something like The Life Pursuit (definitely recommended, by the way!) - which seems to have more of a mainstream-rock type sound, but after one or two listens the songs really come alive on this album.
Stars of Track and Field builds up to a nice peak somewhere in the later half of the song, Fox In the Snow has perhaps somewhat of a sad tone to it, but is great, Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying is just outstanding, I love the strings in The Boy Done Wrong Again, really everything is good and you should check it out!
If You're Feeling Sinister Poster
There are several schools of thought about Syd Barrett, the early leader of Pink Floyd. Some think he was a genius songwriter, even when he was utterly whacked out. Others think he was just a druggie tosspot (those people are wrong). If you subscribe to the former school, you need to hear Belle and Sebastian, who seem to inhabit a musical universe close to Syd's. Songs seem to fly off the cuff, as attractive as a summer day when you were 16. We're not talking self-conscious strangeness here, but just natural, organic weirdness with melodies that make these songs work. --Chris NicksonWhimsy and preciousness is an integral part of 'If You're Feeling Sinister', along with clever wit and gentle, intricate arrangements - a wonderful blend of the Smiths and Simon & Garfunkel, to be reductive. A Matador Records release.
