The Debut EP from the SKA Punksters spunge.
The Kicking Pigeons EP, released in March 1998 is the first record of the British ska-punk band Spunge. The copyright of the CD is owned by Sucka-Punch Records, which is a label the band formed in 1998 (not to be confused with a lebel from USA with a similar name Suckapunch Records) in order to get their EP released.
The record is no longer available for sale. Kicking Pigeons was distributed mainly by being sold at gigs pub. The EP sold 5,000 copies at gigs and the band decided it was time to for making the band full-time concern by leaving their daily jobs and start working on a full-length album. The band has later used Sucka-Punch Records label to release more of their own as well as associated bands CD´s, Although since 2000 Spunge has been releasing their records through bigger third party labels.
