Mad is an EP released by English heavy metal band Raven in 1986, after the debacle of the album The Pack Is Back, which received largely negative reviews and insignificant commercial success. The songs of this EP mark the return to a more aggressive and metallic sound. It has never been re-released on CD. Its tracks were released as bonus tracks on other CD releases.
