Vertigo Tango is the fifth studio album by the Canadian new wave band Spoons, released in 1988 by Anthem Records.

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.
