"More required reading for would-be beatniks. Every punk rocker moving to New York in the ‘70s had this book around; it became the Bible for the east village aesthetic and free-flowing “cut-ups.” Its dystopian views fit perfectly into the punk rock esthetic of nihilism."

Rolling Stone's 8th greatest album of all time
Superb album. It is a bit of a shame that it is labelled as punk as that would put a lot of people off and make them miss out on such a wonderful masterpiece. This isn't "spit and middle finger" punk, it's political, thought-provoking and intelligent punk. For every London Calling, there is a Jimmy Jazz, for every Spanish Bombs there is a Train in Vain. Simply an awesome album.

Maybe it's my age but not one single track on this compilation is punk. Not even by todays standards is this at all punk. MTV Pop Punk? Jeez... do MTV even show music videos anymore? No doubt there is a market for this kind of rubbish and to a certain demographic the 'kids' will lap it up. Me though? Definitely not. Give me The Clash, Sex Pistols, Buzzcocks etc any old day!

"A few of their covers are almost interchangeable, almost the same photo. I love that. They’re so uniformly punk. I wonder if bands are afraid to look so uniform now. Today there’d be a chain-wallet punk, a baggy skater, a tatted-up goth, and a clean-cut gas-station-attendant indie rocker."
