The Eels’s debut, ‘Daisies of the Galaxy’, does not fit easily into one genre. Nowhere is this more so than on their re-working of The Eels on ‘Grace Kelly Blues’. ten years ago, The Eels briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Packing The Blankets”. I greatly enjoyed this CD.
Packing The Blankets great lyrics, dark, deep, angry and cool.Awesome song is really all that you can say about it. I Like Birds is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through Daisies of the Galaxy. Daisies Of The Galaxy - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. This track is nearly perfect if not perfect. Estate Sales rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo. Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. Daisy Through Concrete is filled with very deep emotions that will truly touch your heart. Jeannie’s Diary is probably the most interesting track on Daisies of the Galaxy. When listening to Wooden Nickels, it gives me such an energy rush it’s unbelievable. Something Is Sacred is a gorgeous song and it grows on you. It’s also one of those rare songs that touchingly comfort the listener. Overall a nice softer song.
