When your art is as simple, timeless and beautiful as belle and sebastian's, consistency is a virtue. Tigermilk , the band's first album, re-released this summer shows that belle and sebastian haven't changed much in three years. This Is Just A Modern Rock Song,' their most recent recording. The lyrics are as brilliant, charming and hilarious as ever. As usual, there is no picking favourites.
Every song is a minor classic.
I certainly hope that belle and the boy sebastian never grow up, never change, and that their music always takes me back to Bank tube stop, London EC2.
