The 10 Greatest Punk Albums of All Time


If you look up a single best of list, that list could be heavily influenced by the author's bias. We don't think that's entirely fair, so what we like to do for our "Best of" lists is to scour the internet for multiple other rankings and then combine them all into one mega list. This way, not only do we get highly ranked lists, but it can also show the consistency of the rankings. If something ranked highly #1 on only 1 list, and doesn't appear in any others,  how great could it be? So what we did was find the "Best of" lists from publications, websites, fan polls and more, and then combine them all into one cumulative ranking. And here they are, the the 10 greatest punk albums of all time:

1. The Ramones - The Ramones
2. The Sex Pistols - Nevermind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols
3. Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
4. The Clash - London Calling
5. The Clash - The Clash
6. Black Flag - Damaged
7. Bad Brains - Bad Brains
8. Minor Threat - Minor Threat
9. Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime
10. Rancid - ...And Out Come the Wolves
