    I was going to say same the same thing (but not as well). OP's post title seems like a prompt to me!

    I am currently in a punk phase that I thought would've died out by now, but no. I never really listened to anything in the punk realm before; I recall when "London Calling" came out and I thought it was alright, but it just didn't grab me.

    Recently though, I discovered The Buzzcocks and that has then led me to sooo much freaking good music. I am actually mad at myself for not tuning in sooner.

    These two albums have been in the short list for a while now.

    Buzzcocks - Another Music In A Different Kitchen (1979)
    NoMeansNo - Mama (1982)

    These are from the back half of "Another Music In A Different Kitchen".

    Buzzcocks - Fiction Romance
    Buzzcocks - Autonomy
    Buzzcocks - Moving Away From The Pulsebeat

    NoMeansNo are from Vancouver and this is their first album. If you like-a the bass, good lord, it's here :)

    I always wondered why they didn't just resurrect that instead of starting all over.

    This commenters' last paragraph confused me for a second as well. They do agree that feeding kids toxic sludge is bad, they just want the government to force the companies to change the content...
