Shootenanny!

EELS

Fourteen tracks of loose, blues-inflected indie rock recorded in a ten-day blur. A gritty, lived-in record about the quiet heroism of getting through the day.

It's the perfect record for when you're tired of the world but not quite ready to give up on it.

A weary, blues-inflected resilience that finds humor and warmth in the daily grind.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the distorted, defiant stomp of Rock Hard Times into the fragile, acoustic vulnerability of Restraining Order Blues.
The weary but insistent 'yeah!' interjections in All in a Day's Work that make the struggle of existing feel like a shared joke.
The way the drums hit with a dry, boxy thud on Saturday Morning, perfectly capturing the sluggish feeling of a weekend start.
