Eels

Rick Reger has a review of the new Eels album - Blinking Lights and Other Revelations - in the Chicago Tribune (22March 2005) calling it the Eels "leanest, most retrained effort to date". He goes on to say "From the bleakly beautiful folk waltz of "I'm Going to Stop Pretending That I Didn't Break Your Heart" to the Todd Rundgren-ish piano ode "Ugly Love," the CD is a cornucopia of understated treasures"
