Fireflies is the second studio album by American post-hardcore band Frodus, released in 1995 through Level Records. The album was initially going to be a glow-in-the-dark 7" single until the band decided to instead release a full-length album because it was "just as cheap".{{cite web|title=Fireflies! |url=http://frodus.bandcamp.com/album/fireflies|publisher=|author=Frodus|accessdate=April 25, 2015}} The album was initially released on CD format, limited to 1100 copies.{{cite web|title=Frodus Discography |url=http://www.frodus.com/discography.php#|publisher=|author=Frodus|accessdate=April 25, 2015}} The album was reissued digitally in 2006, remastered and with new artwork and an alternative track-listing. The band's bandcamp page also hosts another reissue of the record, also including unique cover-art and track-listing.
