BA25 is the 25th anniversary edition reissue of Australian rock band Baby Animals' self-titled debut studio album. The original album sold 600,000 copies and peaked at number 1 on the Australian ARIA Charts, where it remained for six weeks and was the second biggest selling album in Australia in 1991.[1]

Lead singer Suze DeMarchi said "I look back on that whole time with great affection, it was a really thrilling time for all of us. I always said that Baby Animals was the only band for me, and it really has been the only band for me."[2]

The album contains 11 tracks from the original release as well live songs, B-sides and pre-studio demos.[3] The live recordings are taken from a concert in Boston when the band was on tour with Van Halen in 1992.[4]

The band performed two live shows in Melbourne and Sydney in May 2016 to promote the album.[5]

The album debuted at number 73.
