 hip hop/punk fan August 21, 2008
this is a great comp.i barley got into the punk scene a good 5 years ago or so.this comp. makes for a great starter kit.
a great introduction to those who are still learning.... December 12, 2006
This compilation was made by Warren Fitzgerald (of the Vandals). He makes a great cd full of all the greatest punk rock songs from bands most might not know about, but should. Forget Blink 182, Green Day, or any other pop stuff. This is Punk Rock.
 Great punk compilation April 1, 2004

This is one of the better punk comps i've heard, and has a lot more varied stuff on it than an "oi" comp would. There are some classic songs on here from Wasted Youth, TSOL, Agent Orange, and Flipper. Pretty much all of it is good but those are the best. I'd recommend getting Agent Orange's "Living in Darkness" or TSOL's "Dance With Me" if the songs on here appeal to you.

This is one of the better compilations that I own. It is great, but it could have had a better germs cut. Darby Crash rules!
Despite the cheesy title and cliche' cover, it's a keeper July 24, 2000

Sure, any compilation like this reeks of cash-in, and in the realm of "punk rock" that's a sin, but suspend your prejudices for a time and realize that the songs here are vital.Serving as an admirable time capsule for SoCal early eighties punk rock, this CD ties together a great lineup of important bands of that day and age. And not only are the bands first-rate, the songs chosen are actually the best those bands have to offer. Honestly, once you hear "I Don't Care About You" by Fear, that's about all the Fear you'll ever need to hear. Same goes for the Germs' "Richie Dagger" and Agent Orange's "Bloodstains." Sure, you could delve deeper into each artist, but if you didn't bother, you could still safely go to your grave not missing much. If you need a primer introduction to the roots of what they call American punk today (Offspring, Green Day, Blink182), this will serve that purpose admirably.
