No one round here has mentioned them at all. Are they so unknown?

The eels are a psychedlic rock group that started about ten years ago, and made 'novacaine for the soul' as their greatest hit.

Who here knows them?

I've heard of them. The singer has been through a lot of shit in his life, right? His sister killed herself, and his mum had a heart attack or something when he was young?

 

[Bjerknes]

I've heard that song before.

The lead singer is the only surviving member of his family, 'E's sister comitted suicide, but before that his mother died of cancer, and before that his father died of a heart attack. Its a really sad story. The song 'electro shock blues' lyrics are composed from things her sister wrote during her suicidal time. its really sad.

 

[Max]

I would imagine so.
