Belle and Sebastian filled the void in my life left by the exit of the Field Mice. Their first three albums are triumphant but after that I think that they lost their way a bit. Like the Field Mice there are soft voices, wistful content and gentle melodies. They have the added facet of humour, "she was into S&M and Bible studies, not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me".If You're Feeling Sinister is the brightest and happiest offering from Belle and Sebastian. With word play and musings on life. I am not adverse to their melancholic albums either.
Belle and Sebastian : If You're Feeling Sinister
Wonderful album, I agree that their later work is rather week. I never got all the praise that it received.
