Belle & Sebastian are a Scottish indie pop band formed in Glasgow in January 1996. The band rejects the "twee pop" label foisted on them early in their career. Belle & Sebastian have much in common with influential indie bands such as The Smiths and Felt, and also take in the influences of northern soul and funk. Their sense of irony and humour are traits also not usually associated with twee. Audiogalaxy classified Belle & Sebastian music as chamber pop, as they use instruments such as flut...Read More >

[Belle & Sebastian - Step Into My Office, Baby / 4:14]
Here's something for those who need to prove their productivity while doing nothing.
Wouldn't work be so much more interesting if one were paid for making charts and presentations - pie and other tarts- like the ones below?
Because all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy let's play, shall we. -- Can you name the songs represented by the graphs below?
You can find more graphs and charts on the S... MORE

In addition to being among the finest Velvets rips yet - constructed along more or less the same lines as "What Goes On" - "I Don't Love Anyone" is perhaps the most lovable song ever recorded about the inability or is it the refusal to love, a warm and sunny song about having a heart like a storm grate. "I don't love anyone
You're not listening
You're playing with something
You're playing with yourself I don't love anyone
You're not listening even now

3It's funny. When I was in high school, I would have made fun of myself for listening to stuff like this, but as I get older I am enjoying this stuff more and more. God bless Scotland for Teenage Fanclub, Belle & Sebastian, and their delicious style of whisky.... MORE

Belle & Sebastian. Possibly one of the best Scottish bands out there, and there are a TON of people in the band. Just check them out on wikipedia...and while you're at it, listen to this pristine song.

America does one thing better than ANY other country in the world. What is that you ask? The American entertainment machine loves to pluck very attractive, marginally talented people from obscurity and place them into positions as larger than life icons...and then wait with baited breath to watch them
plummet to the bottom quicker than you can say '15 minutes'. On several forums, blogs, message boards, and the like I have seen people feeling sorry for Britney Sp... MORE

Have you ever called up your local DJ to request a particular song you fancy listening there and then?
This little experiment I'm proposing to you follows the same principle with a twist. Instead of asking for a specific title, post how you feel instead of what you feel like. Then wait and see if any Mogger would answer your request.
Sundays seems to be "cover-day" in the MOG -o-sphere. This Request Line could be an alternative.

"Legal Man" is quite an unlikely B&S track. Why? Because it's got bloody sitars in it, baby! And those frantic bongos...very un-Belle & Sebastian if you ask me. But is it any good? Hell yes...

So, all those kids who have been paying big bucks for first US pressings and those recent UK pressings of the first four Belle & Sebastian albums...this doesn't bode well for you. Matador Records has started a fantastic reissue initiative, with Cat Power's Moon Pix and You Are Free , Interpol's Turn on the Bright Lights and Antics , and Pavement's Crooked Rain / Wowee Zowee /Slanted & Enchanted having all been recently released. So, for all of those (like... MORE

1i detest blake, the beatboxing douche on american idol. on tuesday night, i can't even remember what song he massacred from the Gibb catalog, but my annoyance was obviously written all over my face. why? because Mr. Chickhabit turns to me and says "In my mind, I just watched you reach into the tv and pull him out by the throat, and punch him in the face. It was awesome." i can only hope one day technology will advance far enough to where armchair hecklers ... MORE

....what up MOG ? I just found out that my editorial siege will continue forthwith in the next day or so but it's after 6 and I'm folding the curtain for today...I just realized that I've been outside all day punching up shit that somebody else will get all the credit for (man, the more I know lawyers, the more I love animals)...anyway, I'm at the spot sippin' on an Absolut Cape Cod checking out Belle & Sebastian's If You're Feeling Sinister and thought I'd share...altho...

So I am a little slow on the up-take...Belle and Sebastian have been around for ages but off my radar screen...what can I say? No one told me what exquisite pop music they make...not knowing where to start with them I decided I couldn't go wrong with a record that came out on my son's first birthday... One a record full of sparkling gems, one track stands out as particularly fun: click here for the download.... MORE
