Lo-Fi B-Sides (EP) (1998)
  
Beautiful Midnight (1999)

Genres
  
Rock music, Alternative rock

Released in 1998, Lo-Fi B-Sides is the second EP produced by former alternative rock group Matthew Good Band. The EP was limited to 5000 copies and was included as a bonus with purchase of the band's 1997 album Underdogs. It became a highly sought-after collectors item by fans, occasionally commanding a selling price over $1500 US on eBay. Because of the EP's rarity, Good opted to include the tracks in the deluxe edition of In a Coma.
