Junior Joke Or Revival Of The Decade is the third full-length album by American rock band The Epitome Of Eureka, released on Epitaph Records on August 16, 2015 - drummer T.J. Wirth's little brother, Simon's, birthday.

All the songs had been written by drummer T.J. Wirth three-four years in advance, along with "about a 100 other ones, no joke." After finishing The Big Bang Anthology, the band worked fast and hard to get their next album out in an attempt to try to break the world record for most full-length albums released in a year.

The album is titled in reference to Fall Out Boy's "Sophomore Slump Or Comeback Of The Year".
