The discography of Pulp, an English Britpop band, consists of seven studio albums, one extended play, 10 compilation albums and 24 singles. They were formed in 1978 by Jarvis Cocker and had a continuously rotating band membership until their hiatus on 15 December 2002.[1] They rose to prominence during the Britpop era in the early 1990s with their album His 'n' Hers (1994).

The band released two albums and eight singles in the 1980s, which garnered little attention from both audiences and critics.[2] Their first charting single was "Razzmatazz", which charted at No. 80 on the UK Singles Chart. His 'n' Hers was their first charting album, peaking at No. 9 on the UK Album Charts.
