2008
Album: Fruit-Encyklopedia
Pupendai: "This album is pretty terrible. Mind blowingly terrible. We were still in the early days and a lot of the stuff we did was just stolen sounds from various places. It's revolting. Mr Bindy was great though. My fave tracks are Fruit- Encyklopedia (A bonus track) and Ekalopse can't make music, Oh and the first half of Blood Eyes."
The General (Emailed over from the US): "Makes me sad thinking about it. Too dark a time. Just makes me miss a beautiful person really. I suppose before all the bad stuff happened we were good friends. Those times were ok. My favourite track is Old Realm. Our first step into collab work and one of our best still to this day."

2009
Album: July
Pupendai: " Our first step into really trying out our own sound. It was a bit awkward with me recording my stuff in jail... but whatever! Favourite tracks... umm...Spaghetti Tails and Echo Ello I guess. They are still pretty rubbish. "
The General: "I like to call this our bleep bloop album. Some interesting stuff going on in there. But I must admit more effort COULD have been put into the tracks. It was a difficult time for both of us. My favourite track is A General Place because it's the only song (I think) that I've ever sung on."

Album: Radio Rodent
Pupendai: "I think if we'd come up with these tracks today we'd have been able to make the best songs of our career. Unfortunately we made them THEN and so... well they are what they are. Some good stuff in there though. I don't have a favourite track, but I love the whole journey it takes."

2010
Album: Ghosts and Gold
Pupendai: "My lyrics meant nothing and the songs were constructed badly. We made an album for the sake of making an album really. With a lot of guest vocalists (Which we thought was for the best aftermy terrible performances previous.) Favourite tracks.. hmm.. Care and Pepper's Ghost."

2011
Album: Too Dumb to Panic
Pupendai: "Our best album title for sure haha! Nah, I like this piece. It's like a better balanced version of Ghosts and Gold. So many of these tracks have gone on to be on Ekapops. Well anyway. My faves are.. nah I'll be honest. I like the whole thing. A lot of work went into it."

2012
Album: The Yeti Man's Demo Anthems (Unavaliable)
Was available for a short time download.
Pupendai: "It was some scrappy loose ends. I can't even remember what was on it dude.."
The General: "I fun little album. I liked to call it the Steamtrain album. I liked The Yeti Man and Steamtrain."
2012
EP: At Our Criminal Worst
Pupendai: "A short few songs. We had not produced much else other than some demos in a long while so just thought... we probably should put some complete sounding songs together. I quite like this EP. Though for me, it's aged quickly."
The General: "This was released without me even knowing! But I'm glad it was. Wings is one of my favourite produced tracks. Mop, the bass player on this EP was the best bass player I'd ever worked with. RIP mate."
Tracklist:
1. Foxtrot
2. Wings
3. Lance is not on this floor
4. Steamtrain
2015
Album: Reality Therapy
Pupendai: "Our most personal album yet. We're experimenting with different sounds, different vocals and lyrics. We take you from drama at home to drama in space, depressing in the soul and love. Heck I don't know. Some tracks are especially there to experiment with sound, some are there especially to try out some lyrics. Some are there for both reasons. These are all of the tracks of our recent days. I've spoken a lot about my relationships in this one, as well as bringing up the past of Mr. Bindy."
The General: "Well due to the fact that an album was never planned. This is the most relaxed album we could have made! It does make me sad to see Pupendai crying when singing but what the heck! The songs mean a lot to me as well. A song like Living all at Once, possibly a stand out track is just ghostly.... This track is what I've always aimed for in a perfect Ghostpop sound. We do hope people enjoy."

2016
Album: OK, WE WILL
Pupendai: "Since Reality Therapy I have kept writing all these really personal lyrics. It's very embarrassing. But yeah, no change here. Still very personal. The General was not involved too much on this one. It was mostly me and new band member 'Steps Stairs.' But if you ever hear any magic on the album that was most likely The General throwing in something special at the end.
Him being in the U.S makes it a bit difficult. Oh well. This is our new Ekalopse album."
The General: "I really love some of the sounds that have come out of this one. Makes me love my friend, Pupendai even more. I hope he never stops."
Stairs Steps: "It was certainly odd going in to a project like this. Ekalopse have such a legacy and I was soon to be a part of it. I'm so happy Pupendai felt comfortable enough to make such personal music with me."
Tracklist:
1. Forever Alone
2. First Contact
3. 2000s
4. Diary
5. Song about the TV Show 'Rugrats'

12. Reasonably Optimistic Song
Rejected Tracks:

2016
Album: Fun but Dead
Pupendai: "Simon (Stairs Steps) basically wrote all these songs and then when The General visited from America he basically said ' scrap this, scrap that, this is amazing, scrap that!' and he added a whole load of other stuff. He really took full advantage of his holiday in the uk. I very rarely saw him leave the studio. He's very passionate about Ekalopse and that makes me so happy.
Though he's kind of upset there are so many song titles with the word 'THE' in it...."
S. Steps: "Ekalopse is a weird monster. Pupendai and the General kind of say, 'anything goes!' and all this mental stuff happens and it does not really matter if none of it works. It's funny like that. But yeah, I'm proud of what we did. I'm more confident now since the last album. Also, I think I'm the only collab musician to have not died after the first album so that must be a good sign!"
The General: "I'm busy."
Pupendai: "We were just trying to make a happier sounding album after all of the misery in the last 2. There is still some misery hiding here but it's more unleashed and free. We have broken out of the depressing hole that was 'Ok, We Will.' Generally we hope the sound is more jolly.
