Scarecrow & FungusRegina's 3rd LP was initially released in fall 2003 by Shoplifter Records (co-producer Gordon Raphael's label) and sold in slimline CD packaging while Regina was supporting the Strokes on the U.S. leg of their Room on Fire tour; Shoplifter gave the record a formal, limited UK release (in full CD jewel-case packaging) in April 2004.
December
Also- The "Survival Guide to Soviet Kitsch" is now printed and beautiful and done! It is a zine type book, full of London tour photos, press clippings, and crazy typewritten goodness (i bought an old typewritter in the east village and fell in hardcore love with it!) All hand made by me, Adria Petty- the lovely and amazing young woman who shot the videos in London and made a DVD that comes with the Survival Guide, and Sonya Kashuto- a rad brooklynite, who is helping me rework my website... All this stuff took tons of hours to make, lots of scissors and glue action, and a bit of beer as well... I will have a bunch with me at the shows, and i'll try to give some away through the website for the faraway people...Prior to Regina's signing with Sire, the album was also available from CD Baby; below is the item description that appeared on the site:
Songs about sleeping, kissing bloody lips, books, love, sailors, mothers, carbon monoxide... Featuring- Piano, Strings, a drum stick and a punk band, as well as a couple of glasses being smashed next to really expensive microphones... Have fun...Notes:
Ok- the 3rd record by mizz Regina Spektor, Bronx girl via russia, and called "Soviet Kitsch" is done. Made down town on the Lower East Side NYC, and in London too. Mr. Gordon Raphael (www.Shoplifterrecords.co.uk) producer of The Strokes, and Mr. Alan Bezozi (drummmer for such bands as Dogs Eye View, They Might Be Giants, Freedy Jonston, etc...) co-produced it. It was a short time being born, and a long time being put out... that's rock'n fock'n roll for ya.
Regina just came off a tour opening for The Strokes in America... Now she is going on a UK and European tour opening for The Kings of Leon. she says "Hi!"... and walks away, humming.

They made a statue of us
and put it on a mountain top
now tourists come and stare at us
blow bubbles with their gum
take photographs have fun
have fun
they'll name a city after us
and later say it's all our fault
then they'll give us a talking to
then they'll give us a talking to
cause they've got years of experience
We're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
We wear our scarves just like a noose
but not cause we want eternal sleep
and though our parts are slightly used
new ones are slave labor you can keep
We're living in a den of thieves
rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
it's contagious
it's contagious
They made a statue of us
they made a statue of us
the tourists come and stare at us
the sculptor's mama sends regards
They made a statue of us
they made a statue of us
Our noses have begun to rust
We're living in a den of thieves rummaging for answers in the pages
We're living in a den of thieves
and it's contagious
and it's contagious
it's contagious, it's contagious
it's contagious
it's contagious
it's contagious
it's contagious
