Distortion was the third release from Game Theory, a California power pop band fronted by guitarist and singer-songwriter Scott Miller. Released in 1984, this five-song EP was produced by Michael Quercio of The Three O'Clock. A remastered reissue of Distortion by Omnivore Recordings was released in November 2014 as a 10-inch EP on green vinyl, with four of the songs released on CD as part of Omnivore's reissued Dead Center compilation.
