Pushing Buttons is the third extended play by Australian alternative rock band Grinspoon, and was released on 21 September 1998 via Universal Records.

In March 1998, Grinspoon moved to Los Angeles[2] and spent much of the year touring the US and Canada, including opening for Creed, Lit, Godsmack and Anthrax.

[3] While in the US, Grinspoon recorded two songs, "Black Friday" and "More Than You Are" with Ulrich Wild (White Zombie, Pantera, Strung Out), which formed the basis of Pushing Buttons.

[9] Pushing Buttons features a heavier sound than their earlier work,[citation needed] with a metal-inspired re-recording of "More Than You Are" (previously recorded for the Green Album), and the songs "Black Friday" and "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck".

[10] All tracks are written by Phil Jamieson and Pat Davern,[11] except as shown ^ Shipments figures based on certification alone.
