Electro Shock Blues, the previous Eels album, was a bit to depressing for my tastes. Thankfully on their third album things have cheered up somewhat. To quote Mark Everett (AKA Mr E), singer/guitarist with the band ‘Two songs on this album have the word Daisies in the title, neither have the words “Pushing up” in front.’ Standout tracks are Grace Kelly Blues, a gentle brass and acoustic guitar strum-a-long which sets the tone for most of the album. Flyswatter is another great track, vibraphone and broody bass make for a song that wouldn’t be out of place in a Tim Burton film. A Daisy through Concrete is an almost light-hearted song that appears to be about getting over death, something Mr E has had a lot of to deal with. Finally there is the stomping (And inexplicably not mentioned on the case) track, Mr E’s Beautiful Blues, the first single to be taken from the album. It’s a definite return to form for the band, and I’d even go as far as saying their best work yet.
