Who are they? Rasputina - or the Travelling Ladies Cello Society; headed by Melora Creager, Julie Kent, and Agnieszka Rybska, have been entertaining crowds since 1992, when Melora placed an ad requesting cellists for a rock band. Julia Kent, originally a Canadian, responded, and Rasputina was born. So why do they call themselves Rasputina? According to Melora, "We had a song called Rasputina; I was just into Rasputin at the time, and it seemed to have all the perfect connotations for who we wanted to be, or what we were trying to do." The two were having trouble rounding out their trio until Agnieszka Rybska, originally from Poland, responded to their ad. What then? Well, Melora describes it this way: "We haven't gotten any reaction or affection from indie kind More...

I can totally feel for this song though. Nowadays, everyone's in cliques, judge you by your appearance and care how good their reputation is instead of enjoying themselves. So things like "The friends I never had" and etc. Just makes me feel for the song so badly. a suicide note | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song A Quitter performed by Rasputina This song is sad. I knew someone who killed themselves in high school. It hits home. Kids are f**king brutal. Authorship...? | Reviewer: Lindy ------ About the song If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love performed by Rasputina Jack Yellen wrote the song and Vivian Ellis composed it. however, i think that rasputina didnt use the original melody, because it was wirtten in 1930. Hmm? | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Call Me Alice (life 101) performed by Rasputina Rasputina? Um, actually, this song's title is LIfe 101, and was written and performed by a new band called Call Me Alice. Granted, they sound almost identical to Rasputina and Switchblade Symphony, but they are, in fact, another band. Great song, though. Too bad they're so obscure; I'd like to hear more of their music. Authorship...? | Reviewer: Karen the LairMistress ------ About the song If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love performed by Rasputina I love this song; but I've heard that the band (Melora, that is) didn't actually write it. Can anyone tell me the author/composer(s) of this song? I've just gotten maddeningly curious about this. Thanks in advance... Powerfull! | Reviewer: Feighn Knorr Moon ------ About the song Girls' School performed by Rasputina I have always loved Neil Peart's(of Rush)Lyrics. And the lyricist of Rasputina is more then likely on par with him! Powerful, painful; a manifesto could be drafted from the words of Rasputina. OMG | Reviewer: Caitie ------ About the song Transylvanian Concubine performed by Rasputina I heard this song off of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Soundtrack and loved it! It has such a mysterious sound I had to know what the lyrics were!!!! I love it!! kfa | Reviewer: agntyellow ------ About artist/band Rasputina Rasputina totally rocks! Totally alternative lifestyle/mindset. I have been into Rasputina for just over a year. I heard about them on a podcast I listen to called The Dawn And Drew Show. Ever since then, I have been "hooked". I have heard a lot of their work, and it is, I think, phenomenal. Got tickets to see their show on 07/12/07, in Denver, it's going to rock. Totally awesome. "Skate" Along | Reviewer: Megan ------ About the song Brand New Key performed by Rasputina This is a song that if I listen to it it's stuck in my head for the rest of the day!!! I like the chorus and love to sing along to it. This is an older song but still a great one!!! This song deserves a 11 on a scale from 1-10!!! Thanks for a up-beat and exciting song!!!

Its just so odd. Its my second favourite The Celli R0x | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About artist/band Rasputina I've always been really into classical music, (like boccherini, who no one has ever heard of). I play the cello, and one day I just had this thought, like, "Why can't you play rock on the cello?" So I looked it up on the internet and found out that "Cello rock" is actually a genre of music, and that Rasputina plays it. From the moment I listened to my first Rasputina song "Rose K." I was hooked. I can't stop listening to it, and I'm hoping to form my own "cello rock" band. luvluvluvluvluvluvluv | Reviewer: melly ------ About artist/band Rasputina I LUV rasputina. but hang on a moment here. Julia and Agnieza? left, so now it's Melora and Zoe Keating, plus Jonathon DeBeest? as drummer. Checkout rasputina.com, radical recital, frustration plantation, and everything else. Cow punk rock! harbor a devotion for Rasputina. I'm saving for a folio, + I want a t-shirt. + all their cds. Rasputina gets 5 out of 4 stars! Best | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Rusty The Skatemaker performed by Rasputina This is the best song ever! It is so sad, it makes me cry. Every time. And the Cello work is awesome,weaving in and out. It puts you in such a melancholy mood. I could listen to it night and day. I must know the lyrics soon! | Reviewer: Amy Lee ------ About the song Transylvanian Concubine performed by Rasputina I thought this song seriously kicked ass! I heard it off the Buffy soundtrack and I loved it. I recognized it as the song that Drusilla was dancing to and I totally love this song!!! Rasputin's Queen | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song A Quitter performed by Rasputina Wow...this song is uber weird. Love it though! 'Specially the end that never seems to have lyrics...on lyric booklets and websites, anyway. OMG... well... duh... | Reviewer: Toilet Paper ------ About the song The Donner Party performed by Rasputina This song... although only spoken is awesome beyong all recognition... for the words are touching and the added "huh" gve it a comic side... Cello style... | Reviewer: Lyssa ------ About artist/band Rasputina I love her voice, the lyrics are just awesome, and the cello in the songs is just beautiful. They recreate a mix of a sad rock-ish kind of music, I can't even describe it. I knew I lurved them the moment I heard the song Tourniquet (Manson cover) And since have been hoarding all things rasputina! If you havn't heard them before, I'd reccomend "Gingerbread coffin" "The newzero" and "tourniquet" These songs bring in alot of the cellosound, so it'll be more evident and you won't have to listen for it when you're already concentrating on lyrics. All in all this is an amazing band with a superb twist to thenorm. 9/10 stars man. <333 You could review the artist/band Rasputina in Biography page You could review Rasputina album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Rasputina song by clicking the song which you like | | ||||||||||
