Status Updates From Belle & Sebastian's If You'...

this is the book I carry around when I can't bring a bag somewhere and my pockets are too small for a standard paperback so not only am I chipping through it a few pages at a time on the train, this mediocre music crit essay was the only piece of literature I read on the day of my graduation

'Radiohead attempted to lead guitar pop out of its necrophiliac slumber' what does this mean. What is a necrophiliac slumber. Like actually what is he trying to say WHAT DOES THAT MEAN. IS THE GUITAR POP NECROPHILIC OR IS IT SLUMBERING YOU SURELY CANNOT BE BOTH IN ANY MEANINGFUL CAPACITY. And if you CAN what on EARTH does that have to do with Radiohead

Can't believe he's shit talking Gomez right now. And STILL no further mention of If You're Feeling Sinister has been made hello??

I think maybe Scott Plagenhoef is mad someone beat him to writing an official Belle and Sebastian biography and decided to squash all his notes into his essay on If You're Feeling Sinister cos why so far has this been about an entirely different album... if I wanted to read about Tigermilk I would have bought a different book !! But what else can be expected from a Pitchfork reviewer 😑
