    Belle & Sebastian: Great or Greatest?



    I say greatest.

    Also who would be interested in mp3s of old demos and unreleased songs?

    I'm trying hard to be less negative on messageboards, but threads like these make that very, very difficult.

    Love them. One of my favorite bands.
    Terrific live as well.

    I would definitely be interested in unreleased songs and demos.

    So, how does this negative rep thing work again?

    Looking at our respective rep powers, I think I'm going to bow out of this Leoneish stand-off.

    I've never been able to get into these guys. For lush guitar-based pop, I'll take The Trashcan Sinatras any day.

    My days in Finland were dominated by repeated listens of "If You're Feeling Sinister". Clearly, they're among the greatest.
