Premise: Maps is the debut release by Ohio/Detroit-based pop punk band Mixtapes. The album was recorded over one weekend and released for free on Death to False Hope Records. It was later re-released in November 2011 on vinyl via Animal Style Records, featuring the 10 songs from "Maps "and a newly recorded EP titled "Companions". The album was re-titled "Maps & Companions".
Hypothesis: The re-release occurred in the month prior to December.
