Scottish Indie Poppers Belle & Sebastian took their name from a children's book which was later turned into a 1980's Nickelodeon cartoon and when you hear their music, you'll see the Saturday morning connection. There's an innocence to Dear Catastrophe Waitress that's pretty bubblegum and the seven members of Belle & Sebastian have no problem embracing that. The music has an airy quality to it that's delicate and breezy and comes from the band in soft effortless breathes. Makes for a nice audio addition to your coffee and paper on a weekend morning. -- Chris Baginski

Where is toe download link?
the life pursuit is a 'must have' as well.
You blog is great, would be infinitely better if you posted higher res mp3s of these records instead of 160kbs...
Thanks for the appreciation! Also for the higher res tip. I'm switching over to streaming moving forward though in favor of legitimacy.
