Fly in the Ointment is the third extended play released by AFI.

Tracks 1–3 were re-recorded for Very Proud of Ya, and "Open Your Eyes" is on the re-release of Answer That and Stay Fashionable but with different vocal tracks and mix.

In 2015, for the 20th anniversary, Wedge Records reissued the EP.

The reissue featured altered artwork, meant to be viewed through 3D glasses.
