If You're Feeling Sinister shows how Belle & Sebastian transformed themselves over the space of a decade, from a slightly shambolic cult secret into a polished, highly entertaining, mainstream pop group. Along the way, the book shows how the internet has revolutionized how we discover new musicoften at the cost of romance and mystery.
Plagenhoef knows his subject matter inside and out and has gone the extra mile to research and contextualize the work- a necessary task, since the band refused to be interviewed for the project...it's nice to see a modern classic get some due recognition. * Under the Radar Magazine *
