Eels have returned with details of a new album. Mark Oliver Everett and co. will share Extreme Witchcraft on January 28 via E Works/[PIAS].

Following last year's Earth to Dora, the 12-song Extreme Witchcraft features songs titled "Better Living Through Desperation," "Strawberries & Popcorn" and "Learning While I Lose."

The album was co-written and produced by Everett and PJ Harvey guitarist and producer John Parish, who last partnered on 2001's Souljacker.
