MOG Editorial Review

A word like "twee" was practically invented for If You're Feeling Sinister, the classic sophomore album from Glaswegian indie poppers Belle & Sebastian. The perfect record for any shy, bookish kid that's felt more than a little angst , Belle & Sebastian tackled everything from love to loneliness with a child-like sense of wonder. Borrowing as much from '60s pop as it does modern indie, the sensitive lyrics of soft-spoken frontman Stuart Murdoch found himself as the UK's heir apparent to Morrissey for a time. No matter your age, Sinister is the perfect soundtrack for getting in touch with your inner-teen.
AMG Review of If You're Feeling Sinister

Belle & Sebastian's second record, If You're Feeling Sinister, is, for all intents and purposes, really their first, since their debut in 1996 was not heard outside of privileged inner circles. And If You're Feeling Sinister really did have quite a bit of an impact upon its release in 1996, largely because during the first half of the '90s the whimsy and preciousness that had been an integral part of alternative music was suppressed by grunge. Whimsy and preciousness are 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. Even if it's firmly within the college, bed-sit tradition, and is unabashedly retrogressive, that gives Sinister a special, timeless character that's enhanced by Stuart Murdoch's wonderful, lively songwriting. Blessed with an impish sense of humor, a sly turn of phrase, and an alluringly fey voice, he gives this record a real sense of backbone, in that its humor is far more biting than the music appears and the music is far more substantial that it initially seems. Sinister plays like a great forgotten album, couched in '80s indie, '90s attitude, and '60s folk-pop. It's beautifully out of time, and even if other Belle & Sebastian albums sound like it, this is where they achieved a sense of grace.
