Hell of a Collection (stylized Hellofacollection, as one word) is the first compilation album by the Finnish band The Rasmus, released in 2001 by Warner Music Finland.
The band recorded it when they still were "Rasmus" (later they changed their name from "Rasmus" to "The Rasmus"). It is the first album that they made since Janne Heiskanen, the previous drummer who left the band, was replaced by Aki Hakala in 1998. It is composed of eighteen songs, nearly all of which are revamped versions of songs from their previous three albums. The exceptions are the final track, "Liquid" (Demo), which is a demo tape of their hit song "Liquid", and the songs "F-F-F-Falling" and "Chill" which were the first new songs released after Aki replaced Janne.
"Rakkauslaulu" (Lovesong) is a B-Side of the single 1st (1995), and a non-album song.
"Life 705" was originally released on the band's debut album Peep in 1996. A new version was made in 1999 and is available on the single "Swimming with the Kids".
Except for all the revamped and remixed versions of songs, the album did not contain any new tracks.
In 2004 the album was re-released with a different track list excluding the two songs from Into.
