Back Once Again is the six-track debut extended play by the Australian hip hop group, Hilltop Hoods.[1] It was released as a 12" vinyl EP in 1997 and, as from September 2015, is rare.[2] The title track contains a vocal sample from "Bring the Noise" by Public Enemy.

Hilltop Hoods formed in 1991 when Suffa (Matthew Lambert) and MC Pressure (Daniel Smith) met at Blackwood High School.[3] DJ Next (Ben Hare) performed all of the Turntablist/DJ work for the group[4][5] and regularly competed in the local DMC tournaments.[6]

Hooded Puppets, a short-lived live instrumental group, comprising Chris Lambert (bass), Kenny Kreuper (drums) and Lee Moore (saxophone), contribute on two tracks on the EP.[7] The Hooded Puppets performed alongside Hilltop Hoods at a number of their early performances.
