Belle and Sebastian -- The Boy With The Arab Strap
Kinda Folksy Indie Pop group Belle And Sebastian's third release. Their first three albums all stem in the same vein, Pop-y Drake, Bowie folk style with 60's kitch and Smithsy lyrics and packaging ... if you know what I mean. I remember early on in their career there was this mystery about the band, this side of the Atlantic, no one really knew what they looked like, you never read an interview, or ever heard of a concert ... who were these people making such beautiful music with Charlie Brown cuteness ... I don't know if they did this on purpose as a great marketing strategy or if we were just a bunch of nerds cut out from the world, but it created such hype and mystique about the band, that they could have done anything and it would have been cool. Their timeless sound will only grow as the years pass and I'm sure their music will become legendary!
