Originally released in 1998, Electro-Shock Blues is the emotional centerpiece of Eels’ catalogue - a stark, beautiful exploration of grief, survival, and ultimately, hope. Written in the wake of tragic personal losses, it blends fragile melodies with raw, often darkly humorous lyrics. From the haunting opener “Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor” to the defiant closer “P.S. You Rock My World,” it’s a deeply human record that doesn’t flinch from life’s hardest moments.

This special 2-disc edition is pressed on solid blue 140 gram 12” vinyl at 45 RPM offering upgraded sound from the original 10” 33 RPM edition and bringing new depth to its layered production.  A landmark album of the late ’90s, Electro-Shock Blues remains a poignant, cathartic listen — as vital today as it was upon release.
