Belle and Sebastian - Be Merry

The lost Belle and Sebastian album!!! It's a but different from their previous work, which is the reason I think why they didn't release it, but I liked the direction they were headed here. Possibly their masterpiece.

I'm tired of summer. I'll be back sometime in the next few days with another post hopefully.

you have got to be joking

is this really B&S?
 
That was some good shit. It sounded kinda like they redid sinister with the production techniques of life pursuit. where did you find this?
 
Wait, before I download, is this for real, or just some practical joke?

By the way, I've been meaning to ask you if your feelings about The Life Pursuit have changed. My reaction was similar to yours, but now it's really grown on me. I like it better than Dear Catastrophe Waitress, actually, and that album was great, IMO.
 
Actually, I like "Song for Sunshine" (it's comparable to some of the more hippy-ish things they did on DCW), it's "For The Price Of A Cup Of Tea" that I can't stand. I can't shake the feeling that it should be rolling over the credits to a kids’ film, or something. But I agree, the first half of the album is definitely superior to the second. With the bonus tracks available on iTunes, though, there are some pretty great songs (LOVE “Meat and Potatoes”).
 
So who or what was that noise anyway? It's almost as "good" as Metal Machine Music (and/or Merzbow).
