I am in the middle of mixing the new album. I am so close to finishing I can taste it. I cannot wait to share it with all my dearest friends. In the mean time I hope you enjoy the EP Fuente de amor which will also be featured in the new album. photograph by Bryan Karl Lathrop, Costume by Sienna Martz http://danieldejesuscello.bandcamp.com/al…/fuente-de-amor-ep
An Inquiry:
There is a Rasputina song called "The Vaulted Eel." I just reblogged a YouTube video of the song. As you might have noticed, I'm a bit obsessive about metadata (it's a librarian thing). I like to tag all of the reblogs on fyeahrasputina with the title of the album, or EP, from whence the song originally came. This way, the blog is more searchable. Yay findability!
This is incredibly embarrassing to admit. I have no idea where "The Vaulted Eel" came from. I know the Rasputina catalog inside out.This is the first time this has ever happened to me. No amount of research is producing an answer. It sounds like Thanks For the Ether era. Just watch: the answer will be remarkably obvious, and then you're all welcome to heckle me.
So I ask you, Raspy fans--or Rasputina member(s). I know you're there. I know one of you follows this blog--where did "The Vaulted Eel" come from? Which album, EP, etc?
Edit: Never mind. It was on the original Transylvanian Concubine single. /headdesk
Happy Holidays, fyeahrasputina!
I'm sending my best wishes to each and every one of you, in the hope that your Christmas, Yule, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Festivus, Winter Solstice, Hogswatch, other holiday/festival, or decision to abstain from the season may be merry and bright.
All my love,
Kat
P.S. I got an email from Melora Creager. /faints
I'm alive!
Hey lovelies,
In case you haven't guessed by my absence, I haven't had power since Sunday. I still don't have power, and I may not have power for another week or so. Right now I'm at a relative's house (my aunt and uncle have power) to use their internet for homework etc, but that might not happen again for a while because I need to save gas.
Because it's impossible to get gas because everyone is using it for their generators so the lines go for miles. You see, not that many gas stations have power, and those that do are running out of gas, because the refineries can't pump it, because the refineries don't have power. Plus they're all down the shore so some of them are still under water. And if you can find a station that's open and has gas they only take cash. And it's hard to get cash because most of the banks are closed, and the ATM's aren't working because the power is out.
And even if you can get your cell phone charged it won't work because the cell phone towers are all going down because their generators are running out of gas. And even if you can get your cell to place a call it will run down the battery really quickly because it's constantly in roaming mode.
Also, it is super, super cold.
That said, I don't have much to worry about because Rutgers is closed for the week. (This is mind blowing. Rutgers usually doesn't close for snow, sleet, dark of night, hell, high water, or hurricanes. That said, the New Jersey Turnpike was closed the other day and I don't think that's ever happened before, ever.) And the library I work for is closed until they get power again.
Mostly I'm bored. But it's okay because I have a battery powered radio. At least the post-apocalypse has a soundtrack.
So, sorry for dropping off the face of the earth. I would especially like to apologize to all of my followers on fyeahrasputina for the fact that I'm lagging behind. You're all the best.
It's a little disturbing that infrastructure is collapsing slightly faster than it's building, but I'm not overly worried. I mean, we're from New Jersey. We're harder to crush than cockroaches. Seriously.
I hope you're all well.
Love,
Kat (missrumphiusproject)
mini fyeahrasputina meetup? or just say hi?
I, your fyeahrasputina admin, will be at the Rasputina show at Johnny Brenda's in Philadelphia tomorrow. I'm also bringing my Dad along, because he doesn't mind hanging out with his daughter listening to cello rock. We are so cool...
Will you be there, too? My name is Kat and I look like this. Feel free to say hi if you see me?
Sometimes I feel like a one-woman Rasputina awareness army. Never give up; never surrender.
(Then I look at the official Rasputina facebook page again--and I see how many likes and comments there are--and I remember that compared to facebook, tumblr is really small potatoes.)
...And we have 200!
Welcome trixibellashadow, and thank you for becoming our 200th member. I think the celebration will be a planned fyeahrasputina meetup. How does the 10/4/12 Rasputina show in Philadelphia at Johnny Brenda’s sound? Details forthcoming.
hey fyeahrasptutina-ites
I have 199 followers here. Do me a solid, and recommend this blog to one more friend. I'm not sure how we'll celebrate hitting 200, but I'll come up with something.
Also, we have to come up with a name for Rasputina fans besides fyeahrasputina-ites, because that's just bad. Is there already a name for them? I'm entrusting you with this, because otherwise I'd just start calling you all cello-heads, and I don't think anyone wants that. Suggestions?
