State of Euphoria is the fourth studio album by the thrash metal band Anthrax. It was released in September of 1988 (see 1988 in music) by Megaforce Worldwide/Island Entertainment. The band and Mark Dodson produced and Alex Perialas engineered the album. Except for a few classic tracks, including "Antisocial" and "Be All, End All", the critical reception was lukewarm; it failed to live up to the expectations set by the band's previous album, Among the Living.

State of Euphoria hit #30 on the Billboard's Billboard 200 chart.
