Hi everyone. I'm new here and was wondering what the album was (it sounds like something I'm interested in...) Also, as of next week I will have SIX Rasputina bootlegs and I'm always looking for more. Check my list (url in my sig file) if you want to trade. In a few weeks I will be able to trade for things like mix tapes (i LOVE mix tapes!) but for now I'm looking for live tapes by artists like ani, tori, etc - check my web page for more info. marla (wish I'd joined this list long ago!) - ---Eva wrote: > > At 08:29 PM 22/01/99 PST, Kelly Bone wrote: > >I just want to make sure the album is coming together, 'cause I already > >started on my page... > > > I'd like to know that too...

I can understand if it should just be a 'list thing' but i think she would appreciate it a lot as would i.

I'll ask Kerry (in case I haven't made it clear yet, Kerry is our 'middle person' with the band;she's their promotion manager, and she's the one who contacted me about the question/answer idea) on Monday. The way that I first got in touch with them was through the address of their manager, which is given in HWQTF. I'll ask Kerry for a more direct address and let everyone know ASAP.

Olympia Sales Club ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 24 Jan 1999 05:50:53 GMT From: "Mari Kacey" Subject: Article on Rasputina in Strings Magazine Okay, so I'm a violinist, a violin teacher, and a composer. I just got home from a 3 day orchestra festival, and found the latest issue of Strings Magazine in the mailbox. It's after midnight, but I just got around to reading it, and guess who there happens to be an article on? Yes. Of course. Strings magazine is one of the two definitive magazines on string related issues, and is really the only one that covers modern music in its entirety. The email address for their reader comments is: editors.st@stringletter.com I think that we should flood their mailbox with pleas for a full-fledged article. It'd probably contain some transcriptions of their music too...wouldn't all of you cellists love that? So here it is. It's short, so I'm just going to type the whole thing. Violoncello Vamps SAN FRANCISCO- If the idea of your favorite Gen-Xer attending an ensemble cello performance sends you into a fit of laughter, imagine that same individual doing so strapped in tight black lather and combat boots. Add to that black hair, black eyeliner, and black lipstick, iced with a pall of white facial makeup, and you might expect reports of concert security guards being deployed to bar the door. While this might seem odd attire in which to attend a concert featuring classically-trained musicians, when the performance is by a trio of cellists called Rasputina, who played to their fans at the Great American Music Hall in October, it's odd if you're NOT dressed that way. The three maverick women who are Rasputina cut away at traditional roles in music as with a chainsaw. The hardcore incision of their bowing provides for an utter departure from the classical-musical experience. Rasputina grew out of a former incanation as A Ladies' Cello Society in Brooklyn. Their 1996 CD, Thanks for the Ether, is now succeeded by their 1998 sophmore release, How We Quit the Forest (both on Columbia Records). Melora Creager writes the songs and fronts the band, providing the vocals in addition to playing cello. Julia Kent and Agnieszka Rybska round out the trio. Creager notes that "there has never been a better time for neo-chamber-grunge," so they endeavor to combine "the primitive impulse that rock brings" with traditional bowed instruments. A rock drummer behind a Plexiglas sound wall reinforces this message during the stage show. Together, the three are best known among goth fans of the Marilyn Manson ilk, yet their rousing mélange of electric cello riffs, vibrato-inflected"olde tyme" story lyrics, and macabre humor is all their own. The effect is compelling, a wrench rather than just a twist on the soulful resonance expected from a cello. Enigmatic and comfortless, Rasputina will likely never be media darlings, but then again, the nefarious Rasputin himself was at once magneticaly alluring and yet reviled, an incendiary force fanning his own flames. -Carolyn Dempsey So, basically there wasn't anything we didn't know, but it's nice to finally let the classical world know about them. Write to Strings, and they'll pick it all apart for you, teach you all the tricks. Have a nice life.
