*happy little jig*
The new Rasputina album came out today- Frustration Plantation be the title. This day has tried really hard to suck. But it couldn't really suck because I have new music to listen to. I think this is already one of my favorite albums...they played several of the songs at the last concert we went to. I think this is the 2 disc limited edition too. So if anyone cares here are the tracks on it:

FIRT DISC
1. Doomsday Averted
2. Secret Message
3. Possum of the Grotto
4. If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love
5. The Mayor
6. When I Count...
7. High on Life
8. Wicked Dickie (in case you were wondering, you're right it IS about a dead cow)
9. My Captivity by Savages
10. Saline the Salt Lake Queen
11. Oh, Injury
12. When I Was a Young Girl
13. Momma Was An Opium Smoker
14. Nov.17dee (track sung by Melora's daughter Hollis)
15. Girls' School

SECOND DISC
1. Yellow Fever (Frustration Plantation out-take)
2. Momma Was An Opium Smoker (Melora mix)
3. November 17dee (long version)
4. Secret Message (Melora mix)
5. Crazy Swan (Cabin Fever remnant)
6. Sanchez (Frustration Plantation sketch)
7. Mr. Romberg (from Lakme by Delibes)
8. My Soul (traditional)
9. Oh, Injury Reprise

The theme of the album is set in Rural Louisiana circa 1834...as only a Ladies Cello Society could rock it. So anyone reading this should buy the album because its good. Fucking good. Good enough to make a sucky day suck less. And good enough that it doesn't matter whether I make sense any more. And I'm running on two hours of sleep, so off I go.

i carry a secret message
that i must give to you
it concerns suspicious blessings
now i'm sure you'll know what to do
and if it should be some bad news
you know you can lean on me
it might explain Nostradamus
or my addiction to prophecy
i'm not at liberty to say
how a secret message came for you today
i'm like a mirror baby
i refract light back at you
so silent so thin so tricky now
we do the things that lovers do
i'm not at liberty to say
how a secret message came for you today
it holds the secrets of my heart and my mind
it tells of vast expanses
stretching backwards over time
two objects at equidistance
acting as if they cared
does weight follow mass in this instance
oh, e equals mc squared
i'm not at liberty to say
how a secret message came for you today
it holds the secrets of my heart and my mind
it tells of vast expanses
stretching backwards over time
