Feel The Noize – Greatest Hits was a compilation album by the British glam rock/hard rock group Slade. It was released in 1997 and reached number 19 in the UK charts, encouraging other Glam rockers to jump on the band wagon and release their own 'Greatest Hits' packages.

A huge resurgence in Seventies music was happening, due to the constant mentions from Blur's Damon Albarn and Oasis's Noel Gallagher. David Bowie was also quick to release two 'greatest hits' compilations, which sold very well too.

The album also peaked at #10 in Norway with the 2002 version of this compilation.
