Stink is an EP by the band The Replacements, recorded at Blackberry Way, Minneapolis, Minnesota on March 13, 1982 and released on June 24, 1982 (see 1982 in music).

It is similar in style to their first album, Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash.

Before the first track, "Kids Don't Follow", audio can be heard of the Minneapolis police breaking up a Replacements gig. If you listen close enough you can hear one of the audience members curse off the cops. The audience member in question, is none other than Dave Pirner of Soul Asylum.
