The Eels - Fresh Blood, Hombre Lobo
Terrifying, in the best way possible.
After the fires, before the flood:
Sweet baby,
I need fresh blood.
Tom Waits calls to tell me the album reminds him of a baked Alaska. I think about it and quickly deduce that comparing my album to flaming ice cream can only be the greatest of compliments coming from Tom Waits.

Mark Oliver Everett (of The Eels) in his autobiography, “Things the Grandchildren Should Know”. Oh, Tom Waits. XD I just finished E’s autobiography and it was the best I’ve ever read. (via strayrhapsody) |

In My Younger Days - Eels
In my younger days,
this still would’ve knocked me down
But I would’ve just bounced right back, you know
Now I’m a statistic
But I’m not fatalistic
I’m not yet resigned to fate
And I’m not gonna be ruled by hate
