Move Back Home is the fifth studio album by the American punk rock band the Queers, released in May 1995 by Lookout! Records. The recording sessions were marred by the band members' drug problems, and many of the songs were written in the studio. Producer and Lookout! president Larry Livermore was so displeased with the result that he took his name off of the album, and several involved parties, including singer and guitarist Joe Queer, later regarded it as sub-par. After the Queers rescinded their master recordings from Lookout! in 2006, Move Back Home was reissued by Asian Man Records the following year, having been remixed and remastered by Queer and recording engineer Mass Giorgini and with the tracks from the Surf Goddess EP added. Recording The Queers had a reputation for heavy drinking and regular drug use, including problems with heroin. Band leader Joe King (aka Joe Queer) had tried to cut back his alcohol consumption and to quit heroin, and had staged an intervention for longtime drummer Hugh O'Neill to get him to quit as well; O'Neill was forced to take a leave of absence from the band, and was absent from their cover version of the Ramones album Rocket to Russia (released as part of the Ramones covers album series) and from their 1994 album Beat Off. He rejoined the band that summer, playing on the Surf Goddess EP; Livermore produced the recording, and later recalled the sessions as being extremely enjoyable.

Reflecting on the sessions in 2007, King admitted that the band was not prepared to make a record: We were all fucked up (at least I was) and not ready to record. But Larry was dangling 5 grand in front of each of our pimply little faces and that was enough for us to crawl out of our rat holes in New Hampshire and get to the studio. The plan was to drive straight to the studio, record as fast as we could, grab the dough and bail back to the aforementioned rat holes as soon as possible, patting ourselves on the back for a job well done [...]
