Answer That and Stay Fashionable was the first album released by the hardcore punk band AFI. It was originally released on August 1st, 1995 by Wingnut Records and later re-released by Nitro Records on April 22nd, 1997. The cover of the album is actually a parody of the film Reservoir Dogs. The album title stems from The Comic Strip Presents' famous show, Bad News, scenes of which are played at the start of "Don't Make Me Ill" and the end of "Highschool Football Hero".

Note: Tracks 16 and 17 are special tracks which are only available on the 12" vinyl version of the album. On the original Wingnut release of the album, a cover of "Man In A Suitcase" by The Police was featured instead of "Open Your Eyes", which is a cover of a song by the Circus Tents. The vinyl re-release is also available in a special pink tie-dye pressing. This colour occurred as an accident; it was originally meant to be a red and white "candy-cane" colour scheme, but problems during the pressing process led to the pink tye-die colour instead. The tracks "Two of a Kind" and "Yürf Rendenmein" were later re-recorded for the Very Proud of Ya album.
