Album Review: Eels Retrospective

Album reviews are for, er, album reviews.  Honestly I'm not sure what you expect me to say in this header.  It's pretty self-explanatory.

I thought I'd kick off my album reviews by doing a retrospective of the band/artist Eels.  Because I feel like it.  I was originally going to do The Decemberists, but I think Eels have more obscure albums so I thought I'd do them instead.  Because why do one big review when you can do a bunch of teeny ones.

Artist Profile: Eels are the project of one Mark Oliver Everett, more commonly known as E.  Some Eels albums are E on his own, sometimes he works with a band.  To a lot of people, Eels are those guys who wrote Novocaine For The Soul and Last Stop: This Town and then vanished in the late 90s, but they/he's actually had a pretty long career, and his albums are pretty varied for an indie rocker.
