THE REVIEW

Here is the good Mr. E, I must say the truth, this is the first Eels album I got, and I don't know why it remains my favorite. Maybe it's the cover that encapsulates the essence of the album, cheerful atmospheres that really make you feel like you're by a pond, sunbathing or playing soccer... a truly moving album. The beauty of the Eels is that they don't perform so-called "musical acrobatics"; they make simple music that goes straight to the heart, pure poetry. Listen to Motherfucker or Selective Memory and then let me know....
Another great track on the album is Jeannie's Diary... but I better stop because all the tracks on the album are at the same level. Worth mentioning is the beautiful hidden track at the end called: Mr E's Beautiful Blues, probably one of the most beautiful songs by the Eels. Anyway, Daisies Of The Galaxy stands out from the others for its carefree and cheerful nature... a well-deserved 4/5. Well done, our Mr. E.

Eels

Eels is an American rock project led by singer-songwriter Mark Oliver Everett (often credited as E or Mr. E).

 This is fundamentally the world we walk in with Mr. E: it is the simplicity of a child’s pastel drawings.

 With this ballad, Mr. E bids farewell to the beautiful sadness of his past works and announces to everyone that 'damn, it’s a beautiful day!'


By Ginger Drummer

 This Eels album is truly wonderful, characterized by soft colors and dreamlike atmospheres capable of moving and making the listener dream.

 An absolute must-have.
