However it is their second album Electro-Shock Blues, which is considered Eels magnum opus. Written during a time of great personal tragedy for Everett (his sister committed suicide and his mother had terminal lung cancer). Eels have released six studio albums the most recent was 2005's Blinking Lights and Other Revelations, which is a deeply personal trip the Everett's spirituality and sanity, it is critically acclaimed but not commercially successful.
