Recorded at the EELS’ Los Feliz, California studio, ‘Earth to
Dora’ was produced by band leader Mark Oliver Everett a.k.a.
E, and performed by E, Koool G Murder, The Chet and P-Boo.
Speaking about the new record, E says: “These songs came
about just before the pandemic hit and changed everything.
I’m hoping they can be, maybe kind of soothing or something.
To hear songs dealing with things we are dreaming about
getting back to. Or maybe people are dealing with some of the
topics right now as well. Just one song was done in the thick
of the early pandemic days, ‘Are We Alright Again’, which is
kind of a quarantine daydream I desperately needed to have.”
Set to include the surprise single releases ‘Baby Let’s Make It Real’ and ‘Who You Say You Are’, ‘Earth to Dora’ marks the 13th full length EELS album, and first since 2018’s ‘The Deconstruction’, their first in four years, the album was released to widespread acclaim and described as “another EELS album to treasure” by MOJO, “overwhelming” by Uncut, and “a career-straddling greatest hits collection, in which all the ‘hits’ are brand new,” by CLASH.
