Melora’s solo project: Perplexions

December 2006.

 

Here are the explanations for the songs.

Melora Creager's Perplexions.
How, exactly, is this different from Rasputina?
It hardly is, ha ha!


Please enjoy the following selections:
Girl Lunar Explorer-
Inspired by the satellite Gallileo's explorations of Saturn's moon, Titan.
Warbots-
A true story of weapons inventors and the evil within.
Sky is Falling-
A foot-stamping collage of catastrophic disaster.
Border Village-
This is how life is for them there.
Krakatowa-
A tale of Polynesian spite and revenge.
American Girl-
Tom Petty? Tom Petty.
Itinerant Airship-
Take one measure from West Side Story's "Somewhere". Add 4 cellos and the Pitcairnian Women's Chorus. Rinse and repeat.
