Although Eels have been busy this year – E has released his memoirs, and they have toured and released two separate compilations – it’s now over three years since their last studio album, Blinking Lights and other Revelations. However, the album is now being re-released in a ‘Deluxe’ four-LP vinyl edition, including a bonus disc containing a 17-song live show from Manchester in 2005. The set is limited to 2500 copies, each one numbered and signed. However, at $205 it’s a bit pricey.

But fear not, Eels fans! If you still fancy some new stuff from Mr. E, he has very considerately offered up four tracks from the live disc as a free download. The songs – ‘Fresh Feeling’, ‘Packing Blankets’, ‘Jeannie’s Diary’ and ‘Climbing To The Moon’ are available online until next Tuesday, October 28. To grab the lot, click here.
