Melora a la Basilica


Melora a la Basilica is a 1000 unit collector's edition live recording made by chamber-rock trio Rasputina in Basilica Industria in Hudson, NY, "a behemoth of a defunct glue factory". It is a collection of previous Rasputina songs reworked with new band member Daniel DeJesus and covers of songs by Goldfrapp, Pearl Jam and the and A Clockwork Orange soundtracks. The sound and atmosphere of the record is patterned after the recitals given earlier in the year by Creager and new second chair cellist Daniel DeJesus.
