Hi Therion

There was a mouth watering thread by Spec not too long ago, but i cant find it!!

anyway..he did post a little here (http://www.ninjamicros.com/vbulletin/showthread.php3?threadid=8342&perpage=20&highlight=Souljacker&pagenumber=2)

I will always bow down both to his writing prowess and more refined musical ear :)

I just think you should download all the samples you can :D

Like Squeaky said, just dl lots of samples to get a good feel for 'em. But, the Souljacker album is really a great album, even a non-eels-fan can get into that one easily.

Lol@Squeaky!! Mwahahah!! ;)

Actually, I posted in the "Recommended Forum," and we don't seem to have that around anymore? :(

Therion: Get your hands on "Souljacker!" :D

Therion; you can find all the info here: http://eels.artistdirect.com/ :)


Time magazine calls EELS' SOULJACKER "the best album of the year so far." Los Angeles Times agrees. Maxim magazine hates it. What more do you need to know?

What the English press have to say about SOULJACKER:

"The new EELS album won't just rock your world - it'll save your soul ... hauntingly beautiful ... one of the most profound, most diverse and most amazing albums of the year. The conventional wisdom that Electro-shock Blues was E's masterpiece will have to be reassessed: it was clearly just one of his masterpieces."
-Sunday Times

"SOULJACKER is an almighty sigh of sympathy, a giant shrug in the face of adversity, and a clarion call for those who manage to find personal salvation in this "World Of Sh!t."
-Sunday Herald

"Charisma to spare... a remarkable, mercurial album ... violent to tender, bleak to comical ... electrifying."
-Guardian

"Consistently exhilarating... E believes that the sanctity of the human spirit cannot be tampered with."
-The Times

"Downright brilliant."
-NME

"An excellent, edgy car crash of a record ... spectacular."
-The List

"Fearsome, rocking, chilling ... weary but winning."
-Uncut

"Something special."
-Observer

"Gorgeously Poetic."
-The Independent

**** (4 star rating) in over 50 English and European publications.

Reserve your copy today! Just say, "One SOULJACKER, please!"


Dargh! You've gone and done it; I've been listening to Beautiful Freak but now I've got to dig out Souljacker!!
