Playlist: The Very Best of Suicidal Tendencies is a best-of compilation album released on Sony Legacy, featuring a collection of Suicidal Tendencies' music with the label (as such, material from their first two albums and post-1993 releases are not included; however, their 1994 album Suicidal for Life was a Sony release). This was actually released without Suicidal Tendencies' involvement (they were no longer associated with Epic Records at the time of its release), so it is unlikely that the compilation is officially recognized by the band themselves. It is also not even listed on the discography page from their official website. The album does not include "I'll Hate You Better", the band's biggest chart hit, nor any songs from Suicidal for Life.

The album was released on January 26, 2010 as part of the Playlist music album series issued by Legacy Recordings, simultaneously with similarly unsanctioned best-of collections of the bands and solo artists Mariah Carey, Blue Öyster Cult, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, 311, R. Kelly, KRS-One and the Backstreet Boys.
