If You're Feeling Sinister (1996) is the second album from Scottish pop group Belle & Sebastian, released by the independent label Jeepster Records. The book in the background of the cover of the album is The Trial by Franz Kafka. The album was released to much critical praise in 1996, and was followed soon after by The Boy with the Arab Strap, which overall garnered mixed reviews compared to its predecessor. Sinister is widely considered to be an indie pop classic, and has garnered a cult following among fans. The album is also sometimes considered to be Belle & Sebastian's career high point. Band leader Stuart Murdoch has stated in interviews that this is probably his best collection of songs, although they are not very well recorded. In 2005, Belle & Sebastian released a live version of the album entitled If You're Feeling Sinister: Live at the Barbican on the iTunes Music Store. Its purpose was to offer fans a better recorded version of If You're Feeling Sinister.
