Christmas Crackers: Day 9

Consisting of only one permanent member and ever-changing supporting musicians, Eels are hardly what we'd consider to be a generic band. Formed in 1992, permanent member E has already released seven albums under the Eels guise, with an eighth due out January 2010. Combine this total with his five solo releases and we've got ourselves a pretty dedicated musician.

Yet in between creating controversy in the media with his pugnacious interview quips and profanity filled song lyrics, E has found the time to record an Eels Christmas track. 'Everything's Gonna Be Cool This Christmas' is a great festive track whilst maintaining the band's cool rock and roll status. Plus, the video below (thanks, random person on youtube) is set to clips from The O.C. You might hate it but it can't be that bad if rebellious E allowed two of his songs to feature on their soundtrack. Plus, everyone should have a bit of Christmukkah in their lives.
