Eels : Wonderful, Glorious

EELS - New Alphabet - from WONDERFUL, GLORIOUS - out Feb. 5!
A peine remis de l’excellente (mais pas forcément très drôle) trilogie "Hombre Lobo/End Times/Tomorrow Morning", nous revoilà de nouveau plongé dans une production de Eels puisque notre ami Mark Oliver Everett est de retour avec un nouvel album, plus apaisé que les précédents et renouant avec[...]

Out Now (For The Week Of February 5)

Out Now (For The Week Of February 5) It's absurd and insane and great that My Bloody Valentine, out of the releasing new albums game for a solid 22 years, sneak attacked their fans with a new album that was actually worth the wait. Whatever that means. It's good though! And you can get it free pretty much anywhere, so do that. Though Unknown Mortal Orchestra's Ruban Nielson and crew waited only 2 years to release themselves a new album, the progression in sound and songwriting ability is very noticeable  It's groovy, it's funky, it's hazy, and it's a little sad. One of the early year's best, we think. [...]

Album Review: Eels – Wonderful, Glorious

Mark Oliver Everett has always done his best work by infecting self-assured rock music with his own debilitating self-loathing. His bleak humor might still be summed up best by the very first line of Eels' 1996 debut, Beautiful Freak : "Life is hard / And so am I." Throughout his storied career, the man called E has struck deep notes of both despair and joy in his dance around the construct of American masculinity. Seventeen years and nine albums later, Everett's newest toothy rebirth Wonderful, Glorious imagines a gruffer persona than we've ever seen from him-without actually finding [...]

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious Rating: 3 out of 5 stars It's extremely hard for me to dismiss anything E puts down in the studio, even if I'm always a touch unsure of exactly where he's going, musically. After his musical trilogy, Eels returns with his 10th studio album, Wonderful, Glorious.  The music by and large has a jittery, upbeat feel, though E's lyrics remain forever self-deprecating and introspective. Wonderful, Glorious immediately starts things off with an almost circus-pop [...]

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious By Danielle Gibson February 06, 2013 Eels are definitely something different and this album shows them at their best. There isn't one definite genre to classify Wonderful, Glorious (but why should there be?), it's alternative but alternative everything. The songs are a mish-mash of different genres from psychedelic, blues, folk and indie-rock.   Mark E. Everett has a bunch of mismatched stories to tell and employs his full vocal range to bring them alive. The emotional depth of the songs (this is on the whole one of [...]

Lançamentos da Semana: Eels, Frightened Rabbit, Grouper, Jim James e mais

Lançamentos da Semana: Eels, Frightened Rabbit, Grouper, Jim James e mais Eels – Wonderful, Glorious (Vagrant) Em seu décimo álbum de estúdio, o EELS mantém a peculiaridade do seu som, com diversidade instrumental e as letras introspectivas de Mark Everet t, o Mr.E. Wonderful.  Glorius confirma o potencial da banda em transitar por diversos estilos, desde a guitarra suja do grunge, passando pelo country, até algo beirando a psicodelia. Versos como “Everytime I find myself in this old bind/Watching the death of my hopes”(On The Ropes) e “You know what?/ I’m in a good mood today” ( New Alphabet ) [...]

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious

EELS - New Alphabet - from WONDERFUL, GLORIOUS - out Feb. 5!
Mark Everett’s voice is smooth, rich, transcends generations and never loses its appeal. Whether a latecomer to Eels or a fan since their 1996 Beautiful Freak release, their discography is a map documenting an impressive career, and an even more impressive lyrical record of pain, death, and sadness. This tenth offering, however, is a notably more upbeat than End Times ; Everett softening slightly, with every track seeped in melancholic pop songwriting. Wonderful, Glorious is a perfect mix of blues and Eels' introspective musings. The first track, ‘Peach Blossom’ was [...]

Eels – Wonderful Glorious

Eels – Wonderful Glorious Se è vero, come recita un vecchio adagio che nella mia famiglia ha assunto un rango di poco inferiore a quello del Vangelo, che non è forte chi non cade mai ma è forte chi cade e si rialza , allora Mark Everett dovrebbe esserne il perfetto modello. Un po’ come quelle figure che compaiono copiose su quegli odiosissimi link su Facebook con tanto di citazione-massima sulla vita. Non sarò certo io a snocciolarvi le vicissitudini di un uomo-ma-uomo-davvero, che sono narrate in un disco epocale quale “Electro-Shock Blues“ e in un romanzo autobiografico già su questo [...]

Out This Week 2/5

Out This Week 2/5 Damn, 2013, you are looking good! You just keep hitting us week after week with one killer list of new releases after another. This week, there's no way we're not going to run out to pick up the latest from long-time KEXP favorite Frightened Rabbit . As if there was any doubt that this would land high on KEXP's regular rotation, our Music Director, Don Yates, commended it for being "another emotionally stirring set of anthemic folk-pop, with a huge, densely produced sound combining reverberating guitars and urgent rhythms with Scott Hutchinson’s impassioned vocals and dark, brutally honest lyrics."

Eels: "Wonderful, Glorious" (album review)

Eels: "Wonderful, Glorious" (album review) Over the course of the last few Eels releases I've begun to wonder whether the world really needed more from the band.  Those albums were more introspective in nature (read: boring) and really just retrod Eels' already well-trodden ground. While there's not any new ground broken on their new album, Wonderful, Glorious  (out Feb. 5th), there is a rekindled passion that comes blazing through. Continue reading »

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious

Eels – Wonderful, Glorious For musicianship alone it's probably one of his best albums for years: blues and country-rock done as only Mark Oliver Everett aka E of Eels knows how, sharing the latest spoils of his songwriting with a versatile new band in 'Los Feliz' his Californian recording studio. But it's the philosophical ramblings that edge it for me: glorious ballads of the heart 'Accident Prone' and 'The Turnaround' alongside more uptempo and optimistic pieces like the current single 'Peach Blossom' and the undisguised joy of the title track. The band handle everything he throws at them with [...]
