Eels performing at Green Man Festival 2019 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
After putting out the Baby Let’s Make It Real/Who You Say You Are 7″ single earlier this month, Mark Oliver Everett has confirmed the release of a new Eels album.
Containing both those tracks, Earth To Dora is due on October 30th via digital, 12” LP and deluxe double 12” LP box set versions, and is being previewed this week with a third new cut, Are We Alright Again. “These songs came about just before the pandemic hit and changed everything,” E says.
“I’m hoping they can be, maybe kind of soothing or something. To hear songs dealing with things we are dreaming about getting back to. Or maybe people are dealing with some of the topics right now as well. Just one song was done in the thick of the early pandemic days, Are We Alright Again, which is kind of a quarantine daydream I desperately needed to have.”
