05 November 2023
Critically acclaimed rock group EELS have announced the release of a new compilation album, EELS So Good: Essential EELS, Vol.2 out on December 15th via E Works/[PIAS].
Spanning over 15 years, seven studio albums and featuring some of EELS best loved songs, the album includes hits such as ‘Fresh Blood’ and ‘That Look You Gave That Guy’, new favourites from 2020’s ‘Earth To Dora’, as well as three previously unreleased tracks and five that are being pressed to vinyl for the very first time, including ‘Royal Pain’ from the motion picture Shrek The Third, and ‘Man Up’ from the official soundtrack of ‘Yes Man’.
The album also features the brand new Christmas track, 'Christmas, Why You Gotta Do Me Like This', an alternative yuletide ballad with a traditionally EELS twist, following the band’s previous festive offerings ‘Everything’s Gonna Be Cool This Christmas’ and ‘Christmas is Going to the Dogs’. The song will be released on November 29th. Pre-save it here.
