Haha, I love the new title.

Anyway, I'm not saying that the sort of "classic" punk from the mid to late 70s is necessarily the best, but on an "intro to Punk" compilation it's kind of important to, you know, have the music that essentially laid the foundation for the hardcore and ska stuff that was on your list. I mean, if somebody wanted to listen to punk and never had before, he might want to know the earlier stuff. Just a thought.

Haha yeah tried to change up the title a bit.
You're totally right.
I guess I'll leave it up, maybe someone will find it useful.

Well it's definitely a good selection of... mostly 80s American punk.

Intro To (mostly) 80s Punk

My Favorite Comp I have mad so far.

"Punk Rock is a sub-genre of Western Popular Music. Its harmonic roots lie in the bastardized Chicago Blues favored by groups like the Rolling Stones. From the very beginning, Punk thought of itself as a reaction to the commercialization of youth culture. What the Dolls and the Stooges espoused was what has become known as the DIY, or Do-It-Yourself ethic.

By dispensing with pop music's production values, punk rock became something that anyone could do. One does not have to look pretty or play well in order to perform punk music. What matters is that one gets up and plays."

Oh man where is the UK stuff :(

Downloaded the punk comp and listening now. I actually do agree that 80's punk is better than 70's punk btw, which a lot of people would disagree with. It's less commercial and less trendy. Following on from jackhammer where is the UK stuff? GBH? The Exploited? Stiff Little Fingers?

Yeah I know, I should have researched the UK punk scene more before putting that comp up, I'm really only knowledgeable of the american punk scene.

Man someone should make a comprehensive punk compilation... Like 100 tracks including proto punk like the Stooges and post punk like Joy Division. That would be awesome.

That could be a bit messy and over-ambitious, but if someone could pull it off it would be awesome.

I think a '77 and UK82 comp should be on the cards though.

Very time consuming though. Urban would be your man for this. I could do it but I'm behind with my compilations as it is but if no one has done one within a couple of weeks I could give it a go.

Anyone want an Emo comp done? I could try a 10 track or so comp if you guys want
