Member CD Reviews Craig S. (InnerMacro) from WAUSAU, WI Reviewed on 4/14/2014... This is not the GREATEST Punk album of all time, but it does have a lot of obscure content for the avid punk fan. Most of the more famous titles on this album are either alternate versions of the song or live versions, but this is not a problem unless you simply have to hear the song exactly as it was recorded for the hit single. For example, Anarchy in the UK is not the one you typically hear, but Johnny Rotten is no less sneering. The real value of this set are the obscure bands that can be found on it rather than vinyl. The selection of artists leans pretty heavily toward British punks, so a bonus there if you like UK output. Many of the bigger names like Iggy and Johnny Thunders are poorly recorded live versions, leading me to believe that this set was created based upon what rights the record company happened to have rather than being an attempt at creating the 'greatest album of all time'.
Some interesting selections include the Newtown Neurotics, Electric Sex Circus, New Model Army, Chron Gen, and the 3 Johns. CD ReviewsPunk as it should be... nez | boston | 04/26/2000 (4 out of 5 stars) "wow. six cd's jam packed with classic punk...yeah, there's no green day, rancid, or pennywise. why? cause it's a punk cd. not popunk. it's pure punk; working class drunkards with guitars and drums. to really appreciate punk (of any generation) you have to have this set. these bands gave birth to, and raised punk...unfortunately it grew up to be a tantrum-throwing teen with no meaning, but you can't blame these guys. they did it good." Ummmm.... darkstarskater2 | 11/28/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "I dunno, maybe its just me, but to even compare NOFX to the legendary bands on these albums is just a shame. NOFX wouldnt even exist if it werent for bands like these."
