Best Punk Records of 2007

I trust everyone had a pleasant holiday, and now you're all looking forward to the new year. But before you celebrate the expiration of '07, I personally think that it's important that one reflect quietly on the events of the previous year. Then, after one has reflected quietly, one should get out the best records from previous year and reflect loudly. This is just as important, and a lot more fun. Plus it has the added bonus of making the neighbors angry.

It was a good year for punk rock; a huge number of great records came out to celebrate punk rock's 30th birthday and I had a tough time narrowing my list down. But it's done, and I'm sure you'll agree that I've managed to call out the best of the best punk rock from the past year. Check out my list of the best punk albums from 2007, and be sure to pick up any stragglers that haven't made your collection.

And if you don't like my picks - let me know. Did I miss something you wanted to see on the list?
