Kicking a Couple Around is the third EP by Bill Callahan (also known as Smog), released on Drag City in April 1996 and re-released in Europe on Domino in 2001. "Your New Friend" was originally recorded during a 1994 John Peel radio session. "Back in School", "I Break Horses" and "The Orange Glow of a Stranger's Living Room" were recorded by Steve Albini.
In an interview, Callahan said that "I Break Horses" was written "to help a friend try to understand how a guy she had a one-night stand with could possibly not return her phone calls the next day or ever again."[2]
