In 1996, the band released their debut album Beautiful Freak . The singles ” Novocaine for the Soul “, ” Susan’s House ” and ” Your Lucky Day in Hell ” achieved modest national and international success, with the band winning the Best International Breakthrough Act award at the 1998 BRIT Awards . The single Susan’s House was extremely popular in the UK, in part due to its stylistic resemblance to the then-popular trip hop genre, with its slow tempo, subdued melody, and distorted spoken-word vocals. In 1996 and 1997, Eels toured extensively to support the album, building their name as a live act in the United States and Europe. In September 1997, Walter quit the band.
