Space are a band from Liverpool led by Tommy Scott, who formed in 1992 and signed to Gut Records in 1995, eventually rising to prominence with hit singles such as 'Female of the Species', 'Me and You Versus the World', 'Neighbourhood', 'Avenging Angels' and 'The Ballad of Tom Jones', the latter a duet with Cerys Matthews of Catatonia.

Space pursued an eclectic sound dubbed "queasy listening" by critics, embracing electronica and sampling in their work and drawing from genres as diverse as hip hop, techno, post-punk, ska, lounge music, easy listening and film scores. The group were also noted for their deliberately tongue-in-cheek, dark humoured lyrics inspired by films, which frequently deal with topics such as serial killers, failed relationships, social outcasts, and mental illness.

Their first two albums, Spiders (1996) and Tin Planet (1998), achieved great success and went platinum in the UK, along with scoring eight UK Top 40 singles.

The band continue to write gritty edgy pop songs that captivate the imagination of the listener. Space studio albums include Suburban Rock 'n' Roll (2004), Attack of the Mutant 50ft Kebab (2014) and Give Me Your Future (2017). In 2019, twenty years after it was recorded, Love You More than Football was officially released as part of a career-spanning Anthology boxset. The band's seventh album, Music for Pleasure Music for Pain, was released in 2021.

Space have sold over 5 million records worldwide to date.
