Originally released in 1988, The Madness was the only album recorded under the shortened band name after Suggs, Chas Smash, Chris Foreman, and Lee Thompson regrouped without several original members. The record blends alternative rock and pop influences with the band’s trademark quirky songwriting. The 2022 Union Square Music reissue restores the album on heavyweight vinyl with new liner notes, making it a collector’s item for fans of Madness history.
