They Came to Conquer... Uranus is a 7" EP by Blink-182, released in 1995 on Cargo Music. It was released on clear green, clear yellow, clear blue, and black vinyl. This EP is notable as being the band's first release (excluding the re-release of Cheshire Cat) under the name Blink-182, rather than Blink.
The song "Waggy" was re-recorded 2 years later on their next album, Dude Ranch.
Only 300 copies were originally pressed on blue vinyl and were numbered by hand in 1995. They have since been repressed multiple times on various colors such as black, different shades of blue, green, aqua, gold, yellow, red, and pink.
