Eels

After releasing a couple of albums under his own name in the early 90's, Mark Oliver Everett began recording under the band name Eels in 1996 - he has been backed by a changing cast ever since - and received immediate breakthrough success with debut Beautiful Freak. Everett has amassed one of the more consistently fine catalogues in the years to follow - highlighted by 1998's Electro-Shock Blues and indeed his own memoirs ten years later. Eels seventh album Hombre Libre was released in June, 2009.

Review of Eels - End Times by Eels

Like Roy Orbison, one can imagine Mark E Everett standing or sitting motionless, hardly moving his mouth whilst singing. It just spills great waves of emotion and love and death, spinning tales of movement, and glories past and present. Listening to Everett is probably like shouting in despair...
