Eels - Hombre Lobo, 12 Songs Of Desire
(2009)

\\'Hombre Lobo:
12 Songs of Desire\\' is the seventh studio
album by American rock band Eels
The songs
form a concept album about desire. As E explained
\\\"I wanted to write a SET of songs about
desire. That dreadful, intense want that gets you
into all sorts of situations that can change your
life in big ways.\\\" In part, the album was
inspired by E\\'s facial hair and written as a
sequel to the Souljacker song \\\"Dog Faced
Boy.\\\" The character of \\'Dog Faced
Boy\\' has grown up into a werewolf and is the
protagonist who experiences various types of
desire throughout the songs
For a decade plus,
E (Mark Oliver Everett), the auteur behind this
raggedy power trio, has been singing
bay-at-the-moon stompers and ballads in a voice
twisted by heartsickness into something not quite
human. Everett\\'s songwriting hasn\\'t
always kept pace with his musical and literary
ambitions. But these tales of frustrated desire
are vividly sketched, with the Eels delivering
muddy roadhouse rockers. The ballads really
shine.
