ShashavaGlava is the debut studio album by Australian rock band Spiderbait. "Shashavaglava" (Serbo-Croatian: шашава глава, romanized: šašava glava) means "crazyhead" or "dickhead" in Serbo-Croatian.[3] The final seven tracks are incorporated from an earlier EP, P'tang Yang Kipper Bang Uh!.
It was originally released in January 1993 on Au Go Go. Some time after Spiderbait signed to Polygram, the album was reissued on the new label.

Note: Some releases have incorrect track marks. The song "ShaShaVaGlava" is split over two tracks, while "Invisible Man" and "K.C.R." appear as a single track. This causes the track numbers of the intervening tracks to be offset by one. The issue was also present in the iTunes and Spotify release, though in place of Scenester was a duplicate of Footy.
