Electric Eel Shock, the garage rock trio from Japan, have eight albums, which is kind-of, sort-of news to me. (In my defense, not all of them were released here in the States, or at least I haven’t found them!). The band hadn’t released anything since 2009 and I wrongly ASS-U-MED they were dead…until “Sweet 55” appeared on the internetz.

According to the track’s YouTube description, “Sweet Generation” is the name of their 9th soon-to-be-released album and from the sounds of it, they’re sticking to their guns. With fuzzy riffs and a love for metal, Electric Eel Shock’s return should be a raucous return that will hopefully (fingers crossed) spark a U.S. tour.

If you don’t know these guys, check out 2005’s Beat Me, but really, any album will be consistent and rockin’.

Here’s a pretty bitchin’ cover of “Iron Man” off Beat Me:
