Cookie Happened (LP)
EELS
Amoeba Review
The ever reliable Eels are back with Cookie Happened. The songs reflect the temporality of life: no matter how high the high or low the low, one day it'll all be forgotten. But there's something worth celebrating in that very fleeting nature. The title comes from a quote by eminent children's TV philosopher Cookie Monster, who once said "Me no cry because cookie is finished. Me smile because cookie happened." Despite the gentle humor of the title and the album's theme, this is an album that will linger in your mind – beautiful, bittersweet, and a little haunted.
