Electric Troubles was originally an EP on the UK label Vinyl Solution (SOL-5). It was also released on Glitterhouse in Germany, as well as Closer Records and Nineteen Something in France.

Then it was packaged with the Dirty White Race single and re-released for Sub Pop on black vinyl. At that point, it was also released on Glitterhouse in Germany and on La Fabrica Magnetica in Spain. Annoyingly, the expanded Glitterhouse version looked the same as the earlier EP version and had the same catalogue number, so you just have to pay attention to the track listing. All of the above are pretty common and seem to fall into the same general price range.
