As I’ve said before, punk compilations are always good bargains and the best one of all is always Epitaph’s Punk-O-Rama series. It makes you site back and think just how blessed this powerhouse of a punk label really is. With newer signings like Division of Laura Lee (“Black City�) and Randy (“Addicts of Communication�) mixed with some of the Epitaph stalwarts like Dropkick Murphys (“Heroes From Our Past�), Rancid (covering NOFX’s “Bob�), Bouncing Souls (“The Something Special�) and label owners Bad Religion (“The Defense�) you just have to stand back and say “Wow!� Epitaph is also home to bands like Millencolin (“Fingers Crossed�), one of my current faves, Hot Water Music (“Wayfarer�), Pennywise (“The World�), and Guttermouth (“My Girlfriend�). There really isn’t a label roster that can stand up to that in the major labels world let alone the indie world. Just buy it. It’s only like $6.
