Pizza is an EP by the experimental band HORSE the band on Koch Entertainment, released September 5, 2006.
According to the band's MySpace blog, HORSE the band ended their time on "The Stampeding Machines Tour", about halfway through in order to record this EP. One of their bulletins states:
- Scum. We left that tour because we ate really, really, really good pizza in Lou Malnati's in Chicago with Dave's grandparents. The pizza was such that we were inspired by God to write music of the kind not heard in this world since Mozart was fed his first currywurst. A copy of Nietzsche's 'The Gay Science' was onhand and for 2 days we struggled with the question posed in 'The Greatest Weight' passage, which follows. In essence, it asks the reader to examine their every action if they had to repeat their lives exactly for all eternity, begging the question in each and every thing, 'Do you desire this once more, and innumerable times more?'
- We couldn't decide if we should stay in Chicago and keep eating pizza for the rest of our lives. But after two days of rigorous theory, we realized we had to write divine music about the pizza. We decided to drive home immediately and write and record a 5-song EP called "Pizza" before Sounds of the Underground and Warped Tour started. God was there.

[edit] Interesting Notes
- The CD looks like a pizza, and beneath appears to have cheese stuck to it.
- On the back the ingredients list includes fan's names who sent pizza to the band while they recorded the EP. The names are Keith Bevill, Nevin Bazi, Mark Stice, Andrew Young, and Justin Pearson.
- Of those names, Keith Bevill was listed twice, and Nevin Bazi has been confirmed by the fan on the band's official forums as misspelled. The correct spelling should be Neniv Bazi.
- Due to confusion and talk on the internet, Justin Pearson of The Locust was mistakenly thought to have contributed to the disc because of a fan of the same name being credited on the disc for sending pizza to the band during the recording process.
- The disc was also released in 10" vinyl form, in a full size pizza box, in extremely limited quantities, on the band's label, LIF Records.
