His Name Is Alive - Mouth By Mouth album cover
 Mouth by Mouth is an album by His Name Is Alive, released by 4AD in 1993.

After two moderately successful LPs and one EP, His Name Is Alive leader Warren Defever was in a position to vastly improve his home recording studio, and spent the fall of 1992 recording his most polished album yet, Mouth by Mouth. Featuring a wider variety of singers than on previous releases, along with a newly polished sound, the album sounded considerably different than previous releases, although it continued in the vein of This Mortal Coil-inspired gothic/folk/progressive rock and ambient soundscapes. The album appeared in May 1993, in three different versions (explained below).

This was the first HNIA release to come out after 4AD's distribution deal with Warner Bros. Records in the USA, so that all 4AD albums would see release in the USA. While ostensibly this would be a good deal for Defever and HNIA, with wider distribution, Warner Brothers balked at the many samples that appear throughout the 4AD UK version of the album, for fear of being sued. Therefore, the USA release was considerably compromised, omitting several samples, using different mixes for some songs, and leaving off the final track, "The Homesick Waltz." Ironically, the musical backing for "Can't Go Wrong Without You" is made up of entirely of samples from Prince's Purple Rain LP, and Warner Brothers failed to notice this.

In 2006, Defever made the UK version available for sale through his Silver Mountain Media group, from copies 4AD found "in the back of a warehouse." This marked the first time US buyers could buy the full version without paying for a pricey import. The CD quickly sold out from the website.
