February 1999 :: Music C-E :: The Eels (Rich Pawelczyk)
The Eels Electro-Shock Blues Dreamworks As a shameless pop singer, E is an anomaly -- even in this era of rediscovered shameless pop stardom. Prior to forming the Eels, which he did in an effort to share some of the glare of the spotlight, E made two largely unnoticed solo albums. One of those, A Man ...

Electro-Shock Blues Show (e works). Review by James Mann.
EELS ELECTRO-SHOCK BLUES SHOW e works What? You know not of the eels? And you call yourself a hipster? Shave off that goatee and logon to buy this, ya prat.

Music From the Original Motion Picture (Dreamworks). Review by Jason Feifer.
... , clever lyrics, masterful harmonies, and endemic hooks, all residing under a solid layer of unique and satisfying rock. Further down the line, the eels' "My Beloved Monster" is exactly what one would expect from the eels, considering the song came out in 1996. It's a fun tune, but picking up their first ...

Math And Science (Brick Red). Review by Sean Slone.
... "Words," on which Wolf sings: "Words are slow and complicated/Words are everything we're not." Wolf comes off as a much-less jaded version of The Eels with the same knack for creating great melodies. Indeed, Wolf's lyrics on tracks like "In Your Movie," while nothing terribly profound, seem touchingly ...

... 's style is understated and almost deadpan on most tracks. The cleverly-titled "Who's Afraid of Thomas Wolfe" sounds like a lighter version of the eels with instruments cutting in and out at different times. On the piano ballad "Phil Ochs," Joplin laments the death of good rock-n-roll. "Fifty fans can ...

More and more, rock bands are adding DJs to their arsenal of musicians, using cuts, scratches, and samples to fill out their sound. Christopher R. Weingarten talked with one of the first rock DJs, DJ DNA of Urban Dance Squad, and one of today's young guns, DJ Kilmore of Incubus, to explore the roots of the phenomenon.
... twos. Pop sensations like Smash Mouth use scratching as a charmingly giddy novelty in chart-topping singles, and alterna-rock anti-heroes like the Eels frequently utilize clever turntable grooves as emotive wallpaper. Underground turntable heroes like former Invisbl Skratch Pikl DJ Disk and Rob Swift ...

December 1997 :: Ink Spots :: Moog Cookbook (Bryan Tilford)
... lots of fans from those Weezer shows. "Other artists are also approaching us asking that we do renditions of their songs. We did a b-side for The Eels ("Novocaine For The Soul") as well as one for The Foo Fighters ("Big Me") which they also used in the intro to their video of "Monkey Wrench." We're ...

Road Trip/Titan A.E./Gone in 60 Seconds (Ink 19, July 2000)
... Blues Explosion, and Ween (OK, cooler names than most, but all known commodities, in any event). Bands the label's pushing? How about the K.G.B., eels, Ash, and the aforementioned Buckcherry? Nostalgia? Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock" and Run-DMC's "It's Tricky" fill that bill. Hell, even the JSBX and ...

Robots Anonymous (SineAppleSap). Review by Terry Eagan.
COUNT ZERO ROBOTS ANONYMOUS SineAppleSap A bit like the eels, and a bit like no one else. This album of loosely related vignettes documents a band enthralled by the future and capable of creating sonically rich songs that envision this future. While this may sound like the medium Radiohead calls its ...
