EELS - The Deconstruction - title track (AUDIO)

[@AverageMooMz]

What a pleasant surprise. This reminds me of old eels stuff. Like, pre- hombre lobo era. I love it.

[@mjf8897]

I pretty much posted that same thing just now. YOU STOLE MY ANSWER. (I didn't like Hombre Lobo or the other two after that)

[@henryfrith2671]

Mj f Every one is getting Electro-Shock blues and Daisies of the Galaxy vibes of this song.

[@MedievalRichard]

Indeed.

[@MrVoswald]

yeah and the drumbeat sounds reminds so much of Fresh Feeling. I feel you with Hombre Lobo, also think it was a turning point for him.. kinda grew out of a youthful state and ended his momentum. But looking back it contains many ingenious and beautiful songs imo

[@SugerFreeJazz]

The Eels are positively my favourite band/music EVER, and I'm 68 so that statement covers a lot of really good bands and music, and p.s. that's not my picture... that's one of my sons and I'm just on his you tube site. PPS ... both sons really like the Eels, too!

This song keeps me alive. Feeling less alone. Thank you for that.

[@onethirdofabrain]

This was the best thing to wake up too oh my God. It's so good. The range of sounds, how it's put together, the lyrics, the beat. I'm in love. E really is amazing and hits my heart every time. It kinda reminds me of going through therapy, how you have to completely rip apart all you know and rebuild yourself.

Phoebe Harris beautifully put Pheebs, exactly how I feel 🙂

Lyrics: The deconstruction has begun turn for me to fall apart and if you think that it was rough I tell you nothing changes till you start to break it down and break apart I'll break apart I'll break apart, right now, it's going to start I'll break apart The reconstruction will begin only when there's nothing left but little pieces on the floor that made up what I was before I had to break it down and break apart I'll break apart I'll break apart right now, it's going to start I'll break apart and every block you built on it's going to come right out and break apart I'll break apart I'll break apart right now, it's going to start I'll break apart right now, it's going to start I'll break apart I'll break apart I'll break apart

That violin sample kills me, so uplifting... Thank you E, for the wonderful music you've been providing over all these years!

Absolutely beautiful. Eels at their very best. Can't wait to see them on tour again

[@HughRaine]

YES! Electro-Shock Blues vibes.

[@Jetse_Dv]

Hugh Raine if E was a rapper he would simply call the album Electro-Shock Blues 2

[@maartenvodeb5815]

Same producer! First cooperation since ESB.

Shock Blues 2- Electric Bogaloo

Joscha David Mohs this is the single greatest reply ever written.

[@Bassario]

I want to write a song like Mr E does. This song. This song is perfect, its simple, its meaning is undisputable. Its everything, it encompasses the absurdity and the cyclical nature of this brief moment we call life. This moment with no answer, no cure to this terminal dilemma. But we feel and so we know we are still alive, his music has always reminded me that I am still alive, he speaks to me like nobody else does and when I hear his songs the static and the uncertainty in my brain hushes for a very tiny little while. How I wish I could meet him and ask if it ever gets better, knowing full well the answer. Perhaps we could cry about it? Man, that would be nice.

I have always enjoyed eels songs...so an amazing surprise to see it his record on the play list on a flight from Australia to Thailand one Friday evening this past Feb/2019.... sun set over the Indian Ocean and I find this ...possibly best eels songs ever ....blew my freakn mind !!

[@catgrin]

Oh man, have I missed that voice. So good to hear you guys are back!

[@April-oz9pj]

When I was around 6 years old my pop gave me an mp3 player with a lot of different albums on it including "Meet the Eels" and "Daisies of the Galaxy" and since then I've been obsessed with E's style. I'm so happy to see him making music still, this song gives me the chills every time i listen to it.

[@KrustyKoopa]

_Damn._ I just discovered Eels a couple months ago and I've been absolutely blown away so far. Keep it up!

[@21innocentbystander]

This is really so good and my favorite type of EELS.

[@paulelliott3220]

The Deconstruction has begun Thank E for that; it's an awesome song and this album will be another wonderful collection Keep it Eels people Can't wait for the release date

Amazing. Beautifully crafted. I'm glad it's getting so much support from my local radio stations KCRW and KCLU and I really enjoyed the interview on Fresh Air with Terry Gross. Much love from Oxnard, CA! -Chris

If I die tomorrow, I'm taking this audio memory with me

[@kartman8579]

Was für eine Wiederkehr.Fantastischer Song .Die ersten 20 Sekunden dachte ich tatsächlich Portishead hätte was neues am Start.

[@07prs]

In 2013 you, E, signed my arm N.Y.C. Webster Hall. You signed with a surgeons scribe (non Toxic) @ the time I told you what I was going to do. You said I would regret it tomorrow.. I had it tattooed on exactly as you signed. I wanted to show you @ The Apollo Theater. I had front row center. I was in the mist of building another house, depressed & did not attend. Yeah I know, sick. Sick is how I was feeling @ the time. I am sure you can relate. I will NOT miss you this time around! You have got to see how your signature tattoo came out. And NO there has NOT been a minute of regret. Paying homage to a brilliant gentleman.

[@FijneWIET]

Ahhh finally Eels releases an essential album, sounds as potent as 'daisies of the galaxy'. immediate masterpiece.

[@neigemont]

Wow, that's wonderful. I really dig the falsetto voice, the eerie strings and the sampled (?) bassoon

A true talent doesnt fade.

[@AceAttorny]

Yes! Sweet Mother Mary, yes! After four, count them, four long years of waiting... Four years! That's 48 months; 209 weeks; 1461 days; 35063 hours; 2103795 minutes; 126227704 seconds of waiting. Enough time for boys to become men and men to make boys! In fact, in that time a boy DID become a man, and men DID make boys! Uh, no causality implied, of course. Oh, man! I can't even begin to describe the ways in which E's music influenced my entire life! And I DO mean my ENTIRE life (thanks for that, dad!), give or take a few months inbetween my birth and the release of Beautiful Freak. Suffice it to say I own every EELS product I can get my grubby little mitts on, from all the well-known albums and books to obscure recordings of old radio interviews and B-sides collections and everything inbetween! Hardly a day goes by where I don't listen to at least one EELS song, and hardly a week goes by where I don't play at least one full record. My phone's music library is filled to the brim with amazing music of all kinds, yet more often than not it ends up being E who supplies the soundtrack to my city strolls, time and time again. And Electro-Shock Blues? Well, I've listened to that record so many times I know it by heart. And I never tire of it. And anytime I feel those blues, I just put on the record, allow myself to be properly sad, as a wise man once said on KCRW radio, and by the time P.S. You Rock My World comes around, I'm reminded that the world isn't such a bad place after all. Uh... Where was I going with this? Was I even going somewhere to begin with? Anyway, point being that after four long years I can finally continue on my lifelong journey alongside the soundtrack it deserves. Deserves? Needs, at any rate. From the bottom of my heart, E: thank you. Thank you for pushing through all of life's shit and still finding the strength to enrich and perk up the lives of others. Others like me. You're special, E. And I might not even be here writing this comment if it weren't for you and your music. Thank you.

[@MultiMcginty]

I'll be there when he plays my hometown Dublin in July. Sixth time to see them live. That and a new album. Happy days.

[@Jaden-lv7kx]

Out of curiosity whats the overall feel of the concert? Is it the standard thing with everyone hopping around and hollering out lyrics? Personally would like to see the live but I've always hated the crowds...

[@MultiMcginty]

It depends on what kind of venue you go to see them in whether it's seated or standing. I saw them five years ago when it was full on rock and roll but it didn't turn into a mosh pit or anything like it. Eels fans are usually a fairly sedate bunch so I wouldn't be worried about that. I'd say go. Eels live is always a bit special.

[@twotwinningcavs]

E!!! Soo glad to have your fine self back in the studio and a world tour too!!! Please come down to Australia I would love to get my ink of you signed. Will pay for the pleasure 🤞
