Top 20 Greatest L.A. Punk Albums of All Time: The Complete List

NOFX???

Where is bad religion's" how could hell be any worse" and wher are the adolescents? Id dump half this list of bands who are not that well known because they were not relevant then or now. 

TSOL's self titled album is way better than dance with me wtf and where the hell are the smut peddlers they have had a cult following for years

Is there not "OC" bands on this list? Orange County Hardcore kicked LA A**!

What is up with you not even placing the adolescents on this list?

chato 

Double Nickels on the Dime only #19? Wild in the Streets but no Golden Shower of Hits? I would definitely make this list differently

"Double Nickels On The Dime" is so far and away above anything else on this list it's just unspeakable. 

Fear's The Record is a pretty glaring omission. Also, lists are stupid.

I would have moved TSOL up in the list and Hell comes to your house is the definitive Bad Religion LP

I am largely in agreement and Damaged was clearly #1

rancid last one to die

I would like to have seen How Can Hell Be Any Worse? from Bad Religion on the list.

Nice to see Despise You on this list, but it would have been nicer to see some recognition for the Plugz' "Electrify Me."

It is so hard to pick a Bad Religion album. Personally I'd pick either "No Control" or "Recipe for Hate" (if you are going into the 90s). If you are just staying in the 80s than "No Control." 

Asides from the nils, cramps, and plimsouls (maybe they were considered new wave) the nils were definately punk. The circle jerks were awesome, but the top two Black Flag and X deserve 1 & 2. Nice review. The rest of these idiots who say they're trendy or main stream can f-off. There are probably a ton of acts that didn't get there spot light, but LA owned punk, even though NY and the east coast seen was where it was at.  -remebering the stardust.

Some decent entries, but Fear's the Record has to be on this list, maybe even top five along with the Adolescents debut. Uniform Choice's Screaming for Change, Agent Orange's living in darkness would have been nice too.

More like the 10 trendiest...

I'm sure you're pretty much expecting some vitriolic reactions to ANY sort of semi-definitive 'list' of a music scene that seems to insight the worst forms of 'I heard it FIRST!' in its fan(atics) . . . That said, I do think The Adolescents, The Zeroes, shit even The Gogo's bootleg demos are an oversight.

Nice list but the order is poop....The Germs should be #1 without question.

I think Union 13 East Los Presents should be on here!

Its a good list and I personally believe there is no order for great albums like these you can enjoy them all just as much as the other....

Personal opinion... Nervous Breakdown was a better album than Damaged. Adolescents not on the list because they are from The OC kind of unfair since Social D was included! lol.

Hell Comes To Your House! Perfect from start to finish.

The Cramps

Cool list but... don't you forget a band ? "Adolescents" !???

All great records just think in the wrong order! ST needs to be way higher, should be top 5!

Milo goes to college is one of the best albums of all times but Minutemen could gave been placed higher.

Juan Escalante (:

Try MIJO GOES TO JR. COLLEGE, Manic Hispanic on for size.

Cool article. Suicidal Tendencies S/T should have definitely been higher in my opinion though. Same with Milo Goes to College.

milo goes to college is my personal favorite
