EELS is the ever-changing project of singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett (aka E). End Times follows on the heels of EELS' critically acclaimed 2009 release Hombre Lobo, hailed by Vanity Fair as "anti-anthems that get your dopamine pumping instead of your fist" and praised by Rolling Stone for its "muddy roadhouse rockers." Largely self-recorded on an old four track tape machine in the basement of Everettt's Los Angeles home, the "end times" he writes about isn't "Mayan calendar conspiracy theory bullshit," says Everett, but, "the state of the desperate times we live in. The bottom line-ness of it all". While Hombre Lobo was written from the point of view of a fictional character (namely, the Dog Faced Boy of EELS' 2001 album Souljacker), End Times is purely real life as Everett sees it: a "divorce album" with a modern twist.
