Ever since they're release of Thanks for the Ether, I was forever trapped in their musical genius. I'm horrible about reviewing things, because they always end up with Eeeeeeeee and 'I love it!' so just.... download some songs (or IM me for some... aim is WingedGestapo) and I'm certain you'll grow to be a fan too. Perhaps I"ll get my shitty pics up from the show last year...

More from Misty. When I got my pics developed (and may I say that they look delicious?) The photo lady never burned the pics to the photodisc I got, annnnd I came home with a blank cd. I took it back up, but it won't be ready till tonight? So until then, enjoy more raspy, Hazard County Girls ala Misty!

Melora is busy recording a new album! Very excited. Zoe Keating left sometime ago to pursue a (very wonderful and successful) solo career. Jonathon Teebest (drummer for five albums, who I think is the best yet) has left to start his own band (he was in 3 minute hero prior to Rasputina). The new lineup slips my mind, and I'll be back with those names shortly!!

 

Very excited about a new album.

 

Melora is also pregnant again! She has a young daughter, who has added small vocal parts to some of the newer albums :)
