Panic Attack (EP)
Panic Attack is an EP released by the Australian rock band Grinspoon in March 2003.[1] The EP was originally released by itself, but also appeared as a bonus disc with a re-release version of an earlier studio album, New Detention, on 10 March 2003. The EP was developed after Grinspoon recorded a cover of the INXS hit, "Don't Change" for the soundtrack of an Australian film, Danny Deckchair (May 2003).[2] Its recording and release were relatively rushed between New Detention's first appearance in June 2002 and their next studio album Thrills, Kills & Sunday Pills in September 2004.

Band member Pat Davern described the four tracks to Greg Lawrence of WHAMMO website: for "Don't Change" he said "We did the cover, basically for Livid", the group had appeared at that festival in the previous October-November; "Off Piste" was "a new track"; while both "Boredom" and "Fall Away" were "B-sides from the New Detention sessions. We decided to hang on to them for whatever we released in the future".[2] The band supported its appearance with their Don't Panic Tour, using 28 Days as a support act. Panic Attack reached No. 13 on the ARIA Singles Chart[1]
