Vertigo Tango was the fifth album by the Burlington, Ontario-based band Spoons.

A moderate commercial success, Vertigo Tango spun off two singles that hit the mid-reaches of the Canadian charts: "When Time Turns Around" and "Waterline". The group disbanded after the tour to support this album, though they would sporadically reunite in the following years.
