Belle and Sebastian and Me

My review of Stuart Murdoch's first novel Nobody's Empire.

From yesterday's The Guardian.

The novel 'traces Stuart/Stephen’s shambling progress toward becoming a songwriter, performing musician and band leader'.

Shambling!

On Nobody's Empire by Stuart Murdoch

of Belle and Sebastian

"Step into my office baby Wanna give you the job A chance of overtime Say my place at nine..." He is one for a wry lyric that Stuart Murdoch, writes some fantastic songs he does... Perhaps one of Scotland's finest exports, alongside Mogwai, Jesus And Mary Chain, Teenage Fanclub and the delgados, Belle And Sebastian have been wowing audiences with their playful wit and joyous sense of the ridiculous for well over 20 years now. From debut album 'If Your Feeling Sinister' and the now legendary sophomore album 'Tigermilk', both released in 1996, Stuart, Isobel (Campbell) and a whole host of members former and present have been delighting music fans the world over with arch tales of love won and lost, quirky asides on simple pleasures and irreverent discourses on the pursuit of love. Recent releases have seen the band reinvent themselves to some extent, with a more 'dance' direction, wholly unexpected yet just as splendid, the signature B & S still present, that subtle, wry charm will always be there... This particular album, 'Dear Catastrophe Waitress' was released in 2003 via Rough Trade Records. Most of their previous albums were released on Jeepster Recordings, apart from Tigermilk, which came out through Electric Honey, although subsequent reissues were via Jeepster, as well as Matador etc... #BelleAndSebastian #DearCatastropheWaitress #indiepop #StuartMurdoch #IsobelCampbell #RoughTradeRecords #Scottishband #JeepsterRecordings #tweepop #Vinyladdict https://www.instagram.com/p/B7CN8_pHTwU/?igshid=c84mzs0v4qd0

Belle And Sebastian - How To Solve Our Human Problems pt. 1 - 3 (2018). I think I speak for all the B&S fans that most of us still linger on with their 90s and early 2000 albums. They represented and became a reference for what indie pop music was to sound like. It was that sensibility and acknowledgment that we all took as the obvious of what B&S was all about. However, recently their music never seems to capture that obvious flare and freshness that you so long to expect from them. Maybe it’s not the music that’s changed but both the band and we have gotten older and been exposed to just too much music to ignite a spark in ourselves as they did 20 years ago. But as a fan you only remember that beautiful moment when you first heard the album ‘If You’re Feeling Sinister’. So you go and buy their latest releases even though their recent albums have disappointed you and in the back of your mind you know you will be once more disappointed. Fortunately these series of eps are not bad as expected. You just have to come to terms with the understanding that the times have moved on and we have all grown past those days. Then maybe these eps with synth and disco sounding rhythms thrown in here and there is not so bad after all....#belleandsebastian #howtosolveourhumanproblems #indiepop #stuartmurdoch #chamberpop #timesarechanging
