Back & Forth is the self-published debut EP by Skinny Puppy, released in 1984. It was supposed to be a limited edition of 50 copies but only 35 were actually made.[1] The first 15 copies were dubbed at a normal speed, while the remaining 20 were dubbed at a high speed, making them slightly inferior to the first 15.[2] This album was remastered and rereleased in 1992 as Back and Forth Series Two, with additional tracks.[3]
The album's front and back covers are illustrations of aliens from the book UFOs Past, Present, and Future[3] by Robert Emenegger. The inner sleeve includes a detail of George Tooker's 1950 painting Subway.[3][4]
