1	Fun Filth & Fury: 18 Prime Punk Cuts (1991) more music like this by Various Artists Not to be confused with Julien Temple's Sex Pistols documentary and soundtrack, The Filth and the Fury (2000), this compilation of British punk singles does, however, take its name from the same source -- The Daily Mirror's headline in the wake of the Pistols' infamous 1976 appearance on Thames Today with unctuous host, Bill Grundy. These second ... see all copies from $6.35! new only from $11.13!
2	Germ Free Adolescents [Expanded] (2005) more music like this by X-Ray Spex While the original ethos of punk rock was built around the notion that "anyone can play this stuff," that should have resulted in more aural diversity than many of the first wave of English bands bothered to display, but X-Ray Spex were one of the few U.K. groups who had little interest in conforming to the sonic templates of the Ramones or the ... see all copies from $11.04! new only from $12.48!
3	Germ Free Adolescents (1978) more music like this by X-Ray Spex Perhaps the most utopian aspect of the U.K. punk scene was that it offered creative, articulate young people the opportunity to express themselves, and to kick up an exuberantly noisy racket in the process. X-Ray Spex certainly came from this wing of the movement, the brainchild of two female schoolmates who re-christened themselves Poly Styrene ... see all copies from $8.81! new only from $20.00!
4	Punk You!, Vol. 1: Music for the Discerning Slacker Punk (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Punk You is far from being the definitive collection of '70s punk, but as a collection of solid punk songs it works just fine. Catchy classics like Generation X's awesome "One Hundred Punks" (featuring a young Billy Idol!) and the Buzzcocks' hilarious "Orgasm Addict" rub shoulders with obscure gems by Stiff Little Fingers and the Rezillos. Many of ... see all copies from $1.99!
5	Let's Submerge: The Anthology (2006) more music like this by X-Ray Spex During their too-short recording career (1976-1979), seminal British punkers X-Ray Spex put out only a handful of singles (literally -- there were but five) and released only one full-length album. How, then, can a record label be justified in releasing a 52-song anthology for a band whose total output barely warrants its own divider in a record ... see all copies from $18.34! new only from $19.68!
6	United Kingdom of Punk, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Volume one was great; volume two is even better! Like the first, United Kingdom 2 is the exception to the rule of late-'70s, classic Brit-punk comps: It mingles a few lesser-known (but great) groups such as Manchester's the Nosebleeds (their classic Rabid Records single, "I Ain't Been to Music School," with its manic and torching guitar from ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
7	Give It Some Punk (1996) more music like this by Various Artists A single-disc, 25-track collection of the first and second waves of British punk, Give It Some Punk doesn't necessarily feature the best-known versions of the songs present -- some are live versions used due to licensing restrictions -- but it does hit a lot of the best-known groups (except most obviously for the Clash). In addition to the Sex ... see all copies from $10.94! new only from $18.07!
8	Kamikaze (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Kamikaze compiles mostly live performances by mostly British punk bands, mixed in with a few studio cuts and American groups like the New York Dolls and the Dickies. The sound and performance qualities vary wildly, and there are a few downright obscure bands mixed in with the heavy-hitters, all of which means that this is probably more for ... see all copies from $10.94! new only from $18.07!
9	Punk Lives [Castle] (2002) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
10	Live at the Roxy [Receiver] (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $6.66! new only from $6.66!
11	History of Punk (1997) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $29.96!
12 view cover	Conscious Consumer (1995) more music like this by X-Ray Spex When the original X-Ray Spex disbanded and Poly Styrene joined the Hare Krishnas, rather wild speculation ensued among some fans that she'd gone off the deep end. She's still in the Hare Krishna sect, but this unexpected comeback effort demonstrates that her worldview hasn't changed all that much since the punk era, though the music (much of which ... see all copies from $18.73!
13 view cover	Live at the Roxy (1991) more music like this by X-Ray Spex Say what you like about X Ray Spex, but they never let their audience off easily. Even at the peak of their shortlived success, London's Hammersmith Odeon just two years after scratching a living at the nearby Man In The Moon, the band blistered through a set of such intensity that its absolute brevity really didn't sink in until you tried to ... see all copies from $7.99!

15 view cover	The Anthology (2002) more music like this by X-Ray Spex Fronted by the effervescently discordant Poly Styrene, and with their punk thrashing immeasurably spiced by Lora Logic's honking sax, the original X-Ray Spex were indeed a sight for sore ears. The ultimate disposable DIY project, obsessing on plastic bags and the detritus of modern society, X-Ray Spex were a full scale assault on the boundaries ... see all copies from $11.55! new only from $11.55!
16 view cover	United Kingdom of Punk (1997) more music like this by Various Artists This classic punk best-of is a strange little bugger. Most of the usual suspects have been rounded up, albeit only the English axis, but these are not the well-traveled, still unbelievably fresh studio versions you've heard 1,000 times if you were paying attention. You'll recognize such familiar titles as the Sex Pistols' "Anarchy in the U.K.," ... see all copies from $12.54! new only from $12.54!

19 view cover	New Wave Archive (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Rialto's New Wave Archive is a budget-line disc that contains some good moments, but it's a little too scattershot and inconsistent to be of interest to anyone outside of bargain hunters. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $3.99! new only from $3.99!
20 view cover	D.I.Y.: The Modern World: UK Punk II (1977-78) (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Picking up where the first volume of D.I.Y.: U.K. Punk left off, D.I.Y.: The Modern World: UK Punk II (1977-78) captures the moment when punk began to fracture into post-punk, hardcore, and new wave. There are still some straightforward punk anthems from the Jam ("The Modern World"), the Buzzcocks ("What Do I Get?"), the Rezillos ("[My Baby Does] ... see all copies from $8.95! new only from $8.95!
