Back With Two Beasts is the nineteenth album (and fourth collection of outtakes) by the Australian psychedelic rock band The Church, released in November 2005.^[1] The material was recorded during the Uninvited, Like the Clouds sessions but released first, as a teaser for that album, and was originally only available from the band's website or at their gigs. It was later re-released by Unorthodox Records, in 2009.^[2] The title is a play on the euphemism for sexual intercourse, "the beast with two backs", to which both of the titles on the band's previous self-released album, Jammed, also referred.
