Alblum recommendations
 

this is a thread for recommending good records. and right now i'm looking for good stuff. and i don't mean hot new ****, like all the garbage coming out now. like, records every punk should have. i don't have anything by NOFX or Rancid, so any suggestions for a first buy would be great. thanks.:beer:

You can probably skip those two bands and go farther back in time instead. I'd start with the self-titled debut by The Clash.

The Damned "Damned Damned Damned"
The Misfits "Static Age"

Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
Agent Orange - Living In Darkness
Minor Threat - Complete Discography
NoMeansNo - Wrong
Husker Du - Zen Arcade
The Ramones - S/T
New Bomb Turks - Information Highway Revisited (not really a classic or anything, but it's such a ****ing fun album)
Richard Hell & The Voidoids - Blank Generation
The Stooges - S/T
The Adolescents - S/T
Black Flag - Damaged
Crass - Penis Envy (more post-punk)
Dead Boys - Young, Loud and Snotty
The Descendents - Milo Goes to College
Fear - The Record
The Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime
Meat Puppets - S/T
The Pagans - Buried Alive
Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material
X - Los Angeles
X-Ray Spex - Germ-Free Adolescents

and **** you if you don't like any of those.
