This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.223.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024. Your current IP address is 44.223.80.188.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''''Attack of the Mutant 50&nbsp;ft Kebab''''' is the fourth official studio album by [[Space (English band)|Space]], released as a download on February 28, 2014, for [[PledgeMusic]] donators and physically released on  March 17, 2014. It is the group's first studio album since their reformation in 2011 and their first studio release overall since 2004's ''[[Suburban Rock 'n' Roll]]''.

== Background and history ==
((Unreferenced section|date=July 2014))

In late 2005, then bass player Yorkie announced through the online Space forums that, due to financial difficulties and internal tensions between group members, contributed by the poor sales and reception of ''Suburban Rock 'n' Roll'', that Space had broken up and members had all gone their separate paths: Frontman [[Tommy Scott (English musician)|Tommy Scott]] formed a garage punk band called The Drella's with Space live technician Phil Hartley on bass and drummer Leon Caffrey, which eventually evolved into a ska/rockabilly act Tommy Scott & [[The Red Scare]] composed of Scott, Hartley, new drummer Allan Jones and organist Ryan Clarke. Several of the songs that made it onto ''Attack of the Mutant 50ft Kebab'', including the title track, "Anthony's Brainwaves" and "Happy Clowns" (then known as "Gone in an Instant" or "[[Cash Converters]]" by fans), were written by Scott and performed live during this period.  Meanwhile, keyboardist [[Franny Griffiths]] started making music under the moniker Subway Showdown and later played in the band Dust with original Space guitarist Jamie Murphy, whilst Yorkie returned to producing for other bands and formed a new group Moongoose.

In August 2009, news broke out that original Space drummer Andy Parle had died of a heart attack at the age of 42. The surviving members of Space, who had all lost contact with each other since the split, showed up at his memorial service, which triggered off a discussion on the possibility of reviving the group.<ref>((cite web|url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-ZMQrYSBdA|title=Liverpool Live talk to Space|last=LLTV|date=December 1, 2011|publisher=|via=YouTube))</ref> In late 2011, it was announced that Space was to reform as a six-piece consisting of Scott, Griffiths and Murphy plus Scott's bandmates in The Red Scare, for a one-off homecoming gig at the [[O2 Academy Liverpool]], playing old favourites plus brand new material to be featured off a new album entitled ''Attack of the Mutant 50ft Kebab''. The show opened on the December 21, 2011 to a rapturous reception from the critics, who commented on how rejuvenated and fresh the band's sound had become, as well as the 50s' B-movie/hammer horror vibe of the new songs.

In early 2012, the band started work recording the songs for ''Attack of the Mutant 50ft Kebab'' at the band's long-time rehearsal studio in Highfield Street. However, the sessions were complicated by Jamie Murphy's sudden departure from the band, which meant several tracks had to be scrapped and re-recorded to accommodate the change in line-up. Undeterred as a quintet, the group continued to play gigs at venues and festivals all over the world and finish the album over the next two years, before announcing in August 2013 that they would fund the release of the album through [[PledgeMusic]], letting fans get the album first by donating money so they can purchase the record along with perks such as signed CDs, a vinyl release of the album, handwritten lyrics and T-shirts.

In the meantime, music videos for the tracks "Frightened Horses" and "Fortune Teller" were issued in early 2013 to whet people's appetites. The band had initially planned to leave both songs off the album and release them as download-only singles, akin to their ''Music for Aliens'' releases, but remained on the final track listing due to its popularity within the group and fans. "Fortune Teller" was eventually released as a 7" vinyl on March 3, 2014, accompanied by the B-side "The Perfect Sin".
