Anthology: Set the World Afire is the third greatest hits album by Megadeth. It was released on September 30, 2008, by Capitol Records. It is a 2-disc set with additional songs not offered in previous compilations including demos, live performances and unreleased tracks. The album's name refers to the second song of the band's third studio album, So Far, So Good... So What!.
The album was apparently supposed to include the track "Sleepwalker" from the previous year's release, United Abominations, but this was replaced by "Foreclosure of a Dream" from Countdown to Extinction instead, resulting in that track being the exception on the otherwise chronological track listing of the album.
Anthology: Set the World Afire sold about 2600 copies in the U.S. in its first week.
All music and lyrics by Dave Mustaine, except where noted
