Creating a list (a discography) of your Madness collection is typical for collectors, who primarily record the collection to identify the condition, price, and possible gaps and ultimately share it with other music enthusiasts. Attempts to list (a discography) the releases from Madness have appeared in the earliest fan club comics and many music publications in the early 1980s and 90s. In the last 30 years, we have seen them appear in book publications and on the internet, and 90% of the websites have since expired, abandoned, or gone dark.

This Madness Discography site updates the collection database daily so we do not drown you, our users or our discography with thousands of ambiguous pages. Instead, we build one release at a time and ensure that our information and knowledge base are complete, cross-checked, and easy to understand for publication before releasing it on the site.
