The Eels are an interesting band. It's really just one guy, Mark Oliver Everett. His dad was a famous physicist (came up with the multiverse theory of quantum physics that so much sci fi is based on) but a distant father. His sister got into drugs and committed suicide. His mother went crazy and died of cancer. He wrote an excellent autobiography about how he turned all that dysfunction into a music career.
The guy is prolific and he's written a wide range of songs in terms of style. Underrated in my book.
