Together for three years (1972 to 1975), the band was banned from just about every venue they ever appeared at for doing things like running a lawnmower onstage, swinging sledgehammers around and picking fights with the audience members. The no-fi recordings they managed to make in between band breakups and a move to Columbus, Ohio, to avoid death threats were never officially released until 2001, when Scat released <i>Eyeball of Hell</i>, a compilation of all the material they were able to get on tape. The swinging, headache-inducing "Agitated" stands as probably their most well-known and, uh, "professional" song, but all 25 tracks on <i>Eyeball of Hell</i> are just as annoyingly, craptastically seminal for folks interested in music that is really, really bad. - Mike McGuirkPunk Pioneersen720Wed, 30 Dec 2009 17:51:00 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.10265&rws=%2Felectric-eels%2Ftop-tracks.rss Arguably the first band to play shows and record music despite the fact that none of the members had any musical training or ability at all, Electric Eels were a proto punk band active in the earliest days of the seminal Cleveland scene of the early '70s.
