Push Barman To Open Old Wounds, Vol. 1
“This 2xCD release compiles Belle & Sebastian's seven Jeepster-era EPs, negating the clumsily packaged Lazy Line Painter Jane set and collecting almost all of the band's pre-Dear Catastrophe Waitress non-LP work.”
Push Barman To Open Old Wounds, Vol. 2
“This 2xCD release compiles Belle & Sebastian's seven Jeepster-era EPs, negating the clumsily packaged Lazy Line Painter Jane set and collecting almost all of the band's pre-Dear Catastrophe Waitress non-LP work.”
Tigermilk
“Each Sunday, Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at a significant album from the past, and any record not in our archives is eligible. Today, we revisit the debut album from Belle and Sebastian, a little-heard school project that defined the sound of one of indie rock’s most beloved acts.”
The Boy With the Arab Strap
“The Scottish band’s excellent third album features some of their darkest and most detailed songs. Wholly beautiful and delicate, it was Stuart Murdoch’s first reluctant step into the spotlight.”
The Life Pursuit
“Spanning glam, soul, country, and '70s AM rock, the latest from the indie pop group is a deceptively wry, wickedly tuneful testament to the fragile beauty of faith, in deities as well as in pop.”
Write About Love
“Settling into a chiming, mod-inflected version of 70s AM pop, the indie pop legends put the focus here on their ensemble playing and intricate arrangements.”
