In a new interview, Fat Mike mentioned that NOFX will soon be releasing an unearthed seven-inch recorded back in 1984. Mike charitably describes the recording as "fucking terrible." He goes on to explain:

You know what's coming out later this year, which should be interesting, is we're going to release our first EP that was never released. [It's] an eight-song seven-inch that was so bad we decided not to release it. It's called the Thalidomide Child EP. I'm not sure when it will be out but it will be out. I think it's going to come in a seven-inch box set but we'll see.

I found it at Fat Wreck Chords. I found the original quarter inch tape. We transferred it to DAT and they were like "holy shit, this is terrible." I go "I know, that's why we never released it because it's terrible." And everyone at Fat Wreck Chords goes "Come on, we've gotta release it."

So it's going to be an eight-song seven-inch and only one of the songs has ever been heard before.

The band is also releasing a seven-inch full of covers of 80s hardcore bands later this year.
