He's got so much good work behind him. I love Eels but most of this sounds like subtle variations on directions he's gone in before both lyrically and musically.
3 or 4 tracks here sound good enough to take their place amongst previous album's highlights. The trademark E guitar licks are scattered amongst the songs very pleasantly though.
I have a feeling that a little like Warren Zevon - E's got a couple of great comeback records to come 10 years down the line.
I preordered this on vinyl when i was having a weird moment
the stream of it though suggests it's actually great so, hey ho.
I don't know where he goes from here
