Teenage Depression Is the first studio album released by Pub Rock band Eddie and the Hot Rods. It is mixed by Jonz:A and R Howard Thomson and produced by Ed Hollis and Vic Maile. The album contains three cover songs, The Who's "The Kids Are Alright," Joe Tex's "Show Me" and Sam Cooke's "Shake". In the year 2000 a reissue was released with 12 additional tracks that contains in it yet another cover, this time of the track "96 Tears" live originally by ? & the Mysterians. Teenage Depression is often sighted as being one of the albums that is the missing link between Pub Rock and Punk Rock because of the albums fast and hard hitting R&B sound showing the attitude of a Punk band.
