EELS is an American alternative rock band, formed in California in 1995 by singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett, known by the stage name "E." Band members have changed across the years, both in the studio and on stage, making Everett the only official member for most of the band's work. Often filled with themes about family, death and lost love, EELS' music straddles a wide range of genres, which is evidenced by the distinct musical style of every album.

They were one of the first bands to sign to DreamWorks and released Beautiful Freak, their debut, in 1996 to much acclaim. The album featured single “Novocaine for the Soul" which brought EELS international success, most notably in the UK, where it hit number 10 in the UK Singles Chart in February 1997. It also hit number one on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart for two weeks in October 1996, and remained on the chart for 25 weeks.
