Anthems 1991–2008 is a compilation album released by Ministry of Sound in Australia and the UK. The three CD set features popular dance singles from the period of 1991–2007 (despite the "2008" in the title). It was a very successful album, and led it to become the first in a series.

UK Series[]

Anthems 1991–2008 is the first in a series of albums released by the Ministry of Sound. The series is split into three mini-series, these are "Anthems", "Chilled" and "Ibiza". There is not an official name for the series, but is often called 'Anthems' after four albums in the series and the first mini-series.

Currently, there are eight different albums in the series. The artwork scheme follows the Fifteen Years release of 2006, which is sometimes seen as the pre-runner to Anthems 1991–2008. The Ibiza 1991–2009 album notably comes in a 3-CD digipack, rather than the larger fold-away digipacks (which are contained in slipcases) used for the other seven albums. The same album is overlooked when the series is being listed in the booklet for Anthems R&B. All copies of Chilled Acoustic feature a mistake in the artwork, where the top half of the Ministry of Sound logo used on the reverse side of the digipack; is upside-down.

2011 saw the year with the most releases in the series, with seven being released, four of these featuring 'Anthems' in the name. The last two Anthems albums of 2010, Anthems Disco and Anthems Electronic 80s, were released only a week between each other (8 November and 15 November respectively).

Australian Series[]

Like in the UK, Ministry of Sound Australia's Anthems series started with Anthems 1991–2008, but the series in Australia is considerably smaller and less popular compared to MoSA's Sessions and Annual series. Anthems 1991–2008 and Anthems Electronic 80's being the same version as what was released in the UK, however Anthems II in Australia did not include the 1991–2009 subtitle and focused more on Australian dance and dance tracks that were on the ARIA charts for overall and club songs. Rave Anthems 1990–1996 was released exclusively in Australia and focused on Rave, House and Hi-NRG dance subgenres.
