Dung 4 is a demo album by the British indie rock band Inspiral Carpets. It was first released in May 1989 on Inspiral Carpets' own Cow Records [1] and only on cassette. The name refers to the catalogue number.
In 2014, it was announced that Dung 4 would be re-released on vinyl and CD on Cherry Red Records on 19 and 28 April respectively, with the contents of Inspiral Carpets' earlier demo EP Cow , as bonus tracks. On the LP version, Cow was included as a bonus 7-inch EP, while on the CD its tracks were appended to the end of the Dung 4 program. A second vinyl reissue of Dung 4 was released on the Tiger Bay label in Europe, containing the entire contents of both demos on a single album. [2]
* Bonus tracks from LP and CD reissues. Note that on the 2018 LP reissue, "Sun Don't Shine" and "Causeway" were moved to the beginning of the B-side.
The version of "Joe" on this album was previously released on the Manchester, North of England compilation album in 1988.
