About
Storytelling is the fifth studio album by Scottish indie pop band Belle and Sebastian. It is the score to the Todd Solondz movie Storytelling. Belle and Sebastian experienced many problems in communication with Solondz while scoring the film, and as such only about six minutes of their music was actually used in the movie. The album contains five tracks that are recorded dialogues. The instrumental track "Fuck This Shit" uses the prosody of the title phrase in a number of different keys but never the words themselves. The album was the band's final release on Jeepster, as they went on to sign a deal with Rough Trade the following year.

Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
This album is a collection of ideas and songs originally intended as a soundtrack for the movie "Storytelling" directed by Todd Solondz. Only about 6 minutes of it ended up in the movie and the band decided to further work on the music and release this album.
Released in a gatefold cover.
