Eels a flag of convenience for Californian songwriter Mark Everett were instantly a revelation. Novocaine For The Soul was weird, assembled from electronic drums, strings, crashing guitars and the tinkling if toy instruments, but nevertheless a colossal pop song. If it had been a one-shot novelty it would have been likeable. The Eels don't have miles of cred here in their home country, and that's probably down to timing as much as anything else- on their debut album, Beautiful Freak, they treated grunge as another trendy accoutrement, but did the same with Pure Moods keyboards, novelty rock, hip-hop, cocktail jazz, and any style in arm's reach. As for Useless Trinkets, to say it's for fans only is an understatement this isn't even the first B-sides compilation the band has put out. It's exhaustive, certainly, but it's a pretty good look at the minor treasures that the Eels faithful have been privileged to throughout the years. For Eels fans, and especially those obsessed with Mark Oliver Everett, the man who created and fronts the ever-changing lineup as well as writing its songs, 2008 kicked off anything but quietly. Meet the Eels is, arguably, the way a hits compilation should be presented, to fans as well as the merely curious. It's loaded to the gills with 24 cuts that include the unreleased Get Ur Freak On. Meet The Eels: Essential. has been added to your Cart. Add gift options. Buy used. Eels fans may quibble about the best choices for a collection like this, but I like what was chosen here. If you are a fan of the Eels, you probably have their albums, and thus you have most of the audio tracks here. But of course the companion Useless Trinkets collection has 50 B-sides, soundtracks, rarities and unreleased tracks, plus a DVD with six live performances, so that's the one to get for previously unpublished content, if you could only choose one. bigger reason The companion DVD in Meet the Eels features 12 music videos one is a live performance.

Listening to an Eels record is something like standing in a field, as a succession of clockwork birds fly up to sing their songs to you and then flit away. You can't help but be startled by the beauty of it, but every once in a while your mind wanders in appreciation of the gears and springs that make the whole thing work. If there's ever been a problem with Everett's style, it's that the occasional song gets stifled. So it's good to see Useless Trinkets: B Sides, Soundtracks, Rarities and Unreleased 1996-2007 come along. With a whopping 50 tracks worth of rare Eels, i. Eels -Novocaine For The Soul Live From Hell.
