Mad Season is the second studio album by American rock band Matchbox Twenty.

The album was a significant departure from the band's debut album, Yourself or Someone Like You, as it moved from a straight rock sound to poppier sounds and experimental rock.

Mad Season's sound is grander and more innovative than the band's previous album, as it includes orchestra and horn sections.

While not as successful as its predecessor, the album entered and peaked at number three on the Billboard 200[18] with first week sales of 365,000 and was certified 4× Platinum in the United States in October 2001.
