"All In A Day's Work" is the first track on the new Eels CD Shootenanny (released June 3rd on Dreamworks). The band is previewing new tracks from the album every Tuesday, flogging a new live CD from the Electro-Shock Blues era, completely sold out of its previous web only release Oh What A Beautiful Morning, did soundtrack work for Ed Solomon's Levity (starring Billy Bob Thorton) and are hyping the mysterious MC Honky's CD I Am The Messiah, which features producer Mickey Petralia, drummer Joey Waronker, Butch, Koool G Murder and Li'l 'Fer (video for "Sonnet #3 (Like a Duck)").

Amen to that. Butch is some specific excrement also.

I'm just bummed that this thread isn't about EeL. If any Google jockeys succeed in finding some information on (her? them?) in English, I'd love to see it.

I love Eels, but...uh...well, I know I'm certainly not the only one who thought Souljacker sucked. I have my fingers crossed for this new one.

What's up with all the negative reviews for Souljacker? I honestly thought there wasn't a bad (not even a mediocre) track on it. Also, I think Dreamworks PR folks must have been exstatic when E went to the Unibomber look. Is he still rocking that?

Yeah, I like most of the disc, but the flow seems a little disjointed. I wonder if the terrorist look caused Souljacker to be delayed in the US? It was released before 9/11 up here in Canada. And is the bonus disc worth hunting down?

Eels are the shiznit, yo. Souljacker was better than 99% of the crap out there, even if it was weak for The Eels.
