'''''Madhouse: The Very Best of Anthrax''''' is the name of the sixteenth release, and second compilation album, by the band [[Anthrax (band)|Anthrax]].
The album was released in 2001 by the [[Island Records|Island Def Jam Music Group]] without the direct participation of anyone in the band, unlike the 1999 release ''[[Return of the Killer A's]]''. Such was the haphazard nature of the release that guitarist and founding member [[Scott Ian]] openly criticized Island Def Jam for what he saw as the shoddy nature of the compilation, especially the accidental inclusion of the ''[[Persistence of Time]]'' track "Time" in place of the band's hit [[cover version]] of [[Joe Jackson (musician)|Joe Jackson]]'s "Got The Time", which was listed on the cover.
(The [[iTunes Music Store]] digital version of the album, and presumably subsequent pressings of the CD version, correct this mistake.)
