EELS CELEBRATE FIRST DECADE WITH BEST OF AND RARITIES COLLECTIONS

FIRST RETROSPECTIVE, MEET THE EELS: ESSENTIAL EELS VOL. 1 (CD+DVD), AND FIRST RARITIES COLLECTION, EELS USELESS TRINKETS (2CD+DVD), SPAN 1996-2006 FOR THE ACCLAIMED ALT-ROCK ENTITY

Release date:
USA January 15, 2008
UK January 21, 2008

The EELS are one of music’s most acclaimed and idiosyncratic enterprises, accomplishing what The New Yorker calls „that rarest thing in contemporary pop: a unique sound.“ The ever-changing lineup of musicians that play the songs of singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett (aka E), unveils both its first best of compilation, Meet The EELS: Essential EELS Vol. 1 (CD+DVD), and its first collection of rarities, B-sides, film contributions and unreleased tracks, the EELS Useless Trinkets: B-Sides, Soundtracks, Rarities and Unreleased 1996-2006 (2CD+DVD), each issued by DreamWorks/Geffen/UMe on January 15, 2008. All videos are available for the first time on DVD and all music is digitally remastered with both packages packed with never before seen photos, artifacts and Everett’s notes about each track.

Meet The EELS: Essential EELS Vol. 1 spans the first decade of the EELS with 24 selections on CD and 12 promotional videos on DVD. The CD opens with four tracks from the band’s 1996 debut Beautiful Freak, two tracks from the Eels‘ highly acclaimed second album 1998’s Electro-shock Blues follow plus a previously unreleased Jon Brion remix of „Climbing to The Moon.“

Four songs from 2000’s Daisies Of The Galaxy, which NME dubbed „a masterpiece in almost every way,“ are represented on the Essentials album plus three tracks from 2001’s Souljacker, which Time Magazine crowned as one of the best albums of the year, was acclaimed overseas with NME calling it „downright brilliant“ and the London Sunday Times named it Album Of The Year, writing that „the conventional wisdom that (the earlier album} Electro-shock Blues was E’s masterpiece will have to be reassessed: it was clearly just one of his masterpieces.“

2003’s live-in-the-studio Shootenanny! (awarded four stars by Rolling Stone) adds two fan favorites, while five songs from the highly acclaimed, and best charting album in the band’s history Blinking Lights and Other Revelations are included. Also on the Essentials album are the previously unreleased „Get Ur Freak On“, a live version of „Dirty Girl“ from 2006’s With Strings: Live At Town Hall and „I Need Some Sleep“ from the Shrek 2 soundtrack.

Highlights within the 50 CD tracks of EELS Useless Trinkets are longtime concert favorite „Living Life“ from the Daniel Johnston tribute album, the previously unreleased 2006 cover of Screamin‘ Jay Hawkins‘ „I Put A Spell On You“ and other covers including James Carr’s „Dark End of The Street“ and Prince’s „If I Was Your Girlfriend. “ Useless Trinkets also includes a large handful of BBC performances, unique live versions of „Novocaine For The Soul“ and „My Beloved Monster,“ tracks from films– The End Of Violence, Holes, Levity and How The Grinch Stole Christmas and several previously unreleased tracks including the original collections title track which frontman Everett performs backed by a 28 piece orchestra. The DVD features six performances from the EELS‘ Lollapalooza 2006 performance, including a gospel rave-up take on „My Beloved Monster“ and a high octane rumble through „Souljacker part I“.

Die fett markierten Songs wurden schon auf der iTunes-Raritäten Sammlung veröffentlicht, was die CD natürlich um einiges uninteressanter macht. Evtl. lade ich die fehlenden bei – genau – iTunes, mal schaun.

Wenn ich das richtig sehe, hast du 16 von 50 Titeln. Das sind ca. 30 %, wenn mich meine Matheverständnis nicht täuscht. Ich finde, die fehlenden 70 % sollten Grund genug sein, die neue Platte zu kaufen.

Sad Foot Sign allein ist die Sammlung eigentlich schon wert.

Außerdem wird es einen Dokumentarfilm geben: Parallel Universes, Parallel Lives

Nein! Deine Größe ist hier nicht erkennbar.

Gibt’s eine Fortsetzung der Tour über März hinaus auch eventuell mit Station in der Batschkapp?

Das halte ich für unwahrscheinlich. Es sollen noch Termine in den USA folgen, aber ich glaube nicht, dass weitere Deutschland-Termine dazukommen.

Übrigens hab ich die Tourtermine auch im Tour-Forum gepostet:

Gestern hat E sein neues Buch „Things The Grandchildren Should Know“ in einer Londoner Kirche vorgestellt. Er selbst hat ein paar Lieder gespielt, aber die Passagen aus dem Buch haben Leute aus dem Publikum gelesen. Der „Zuschauer“, der die letzte Passage gelesen hat, dürfte einigen bekannt vorkommen:

„NME: EELS SUPER BOWL COMMERCIAL:
NME reports that EELS have filmed the world’s shortest commercial for their new USELESS TRINKETS CD+DVD, to be aired during the Super Bowl. Since Super Bowl television air time costs about $100,000 per second, the article claims that the EELS have opted for a one second commercial that will feature EELS front man E saying „U,“ the first letter of the album’s title.“
