- Fizzy Bangers – “Short Attention Span” What better song to kick off this compilation than one actually called “Short Attention Span”? This one’s just eight seconds, and it came from LA skate punks Fizzy Bangers.
- Less Than Jake – “Anchor” I’ve written before about how Less Than Jake’s ska-punk was really as hooky and driving as anything by NOFX or blink-182 — making them a band of choice for ska-curious punk fans — and “Anchor” is as good an example of that as any of the band’s longer songs.
- Teen Idols – “Ketchup Soup” Nashville pop punks Teen Idols (not to be confused with Ian MacKaye’s pre-Minor Threat band The Teen Idles) leaned into the silliness of the comp with a power pop-tinged ode to ketchup soup.
- Terrorgruppe – “All Comic Heroes Are Fascist Pigs (A.C.A.B.)” I am not sure exactly why Berlin punks Terrorgruppe are comparing Mickey Mouse and Superman to all cops being bastards, but these basslines are pretty rad.
