Frabjulous motherfucking day.
Hand hwhy?
Couple reasons.

Taken from "All About 'Tomorrow Morning'", the synopsis of the new eels album that was posted yesterday on their official web site:

Unlike either the combustive garage-rock longing of HOMBRE LOBO or the stripped-down acoustic starkness of END TIMES, TOMORROW MORNING is a new musical landscape: electronic keyboards, drum machines, tape loops and found sounds. "It's a very electronic album -- sounds normally associated with a kind of 'colder' music," says Everett, "but I wanted to make a warm album that was a celebration using electronic instruments to reflect joy in the times I live in." Helping Everett bring the vibrant celebration to life are performances by longtime EELS bassist/keyboardist Koool G Murder and drummer/percussionist Knuckles, along with new EELS collaborators The Amy Davies Choir and Tomorrow Morning Orchestra. It's a bold, experimental and immediate new EELS sound. As Everett puts it, "There's a lot going on in these songs."

Fuck motherfucking yes.

Looks like I have been proven wrong and no one is more delighted than me.

Except for Mr. Jakubisin, that vulgarian fuck.

But, anyway, although the lyrics seems overly saccharine (like 'End Times' were overly gloomy), the music might just be enough to make them work.

You can read the whole thing here.

And if the release cycle is anything like that of the first two albums in this trilogy, we're going to get a song and a video pretty soon, probably a song by the end of June and the video by the end of July.

The new album, 'Tomorrow Morning', comes out August 24th.

W00t.

Other reasons for frabjulocity?

Don't want to say too much, but two massive, oaken doors to my future might have just been opened today.

And another might be opened later this week.

And maybe more in the coming weeks.

Fingers crossed.

Final reason for frabjrabulousness xmax?

I'm leaving for Maine with my nouf for a week or so in two days.

SUCK IT WORLD!

I'M GOING TO MAINE!!!

MMAAIIIIIINNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
