Listen to Eels’ Garage-Rock Fueled ‘The Magic’

'Extreme Witchcraft' is out January 28
Eels
Gus Black

Eels just unveiled yet another track off their forthcoming fourteenth studio album. The eccentric rockers released “The Magic.”

 

Following the galactic jaunt “Good Night On Earth” and the smooth cruise of “Steam Engine,” “The Magic” feels like older Eels—and maybe even ’90s Ween—but with gritty, yet charming garage rock passion. All of the tracks precede and are off Extreme Witchcraft.

Extreme Witchcraft is out January 28 via PIAS and the band’s own E Works Records, and is available for pre-order. To support the record, Eels is embarking on their Lockdown Hurricane spring tour of Europe and America, beginning March 11 in Belfast. Tickets are also available now.
