The general exact solution of the Einstein-matter field equations describing spherically symmetric shells satisfying an equation of state in closed form is discussed under general assumptions of physical reasonableness. The solutions split into two classes: a class of "astro-physically interesting" solutions describing "ordinary" matter with positive density and pressure, and a class of "phantom-like" solutions with positive density but negative active gravitational mass, which can also be of interest in several "very strong fields" regimes. Known results on linear-barotropic equations of state are recovered as particular cases.
