I have never liked a punk album (unless you count London Calling). I would very much like to see if I could, however. What would you recommend me?

Maybe could interest you with some songs, since it's such a wide genre. For some starters, check out:

Stiff Little Fingers - "Johnny Was"
Richard Hell and the Voidoids - "Blank Generation"
Misfits - "Last Caress"
Agent Orange - "Bloodstains"
Adolescents - "Kids of the Black Hole"
Dead Boys - "Caught With the Meat in Your Mouth"
Minor Threat - "Steppin Stone"
The Damned - "Love Song"

London Calling is very poppy, so maybe if you begin by pop-punk albums it will be easier. Have you listened to The Undertones' self-titled or Buzzcocks' Another Music In A Different Kitchen? They have the spirit of punk while being really catchy and all that stuff. The Ramones could work, too, but I guess you've already listened to them.

Only heard the first two ๐Ÿ˜œ Haven't listened to many punk albums because I haven't enjoyed many punk albums.

X was one of the few that's come closer to me liking it. It might have been the organ. The Soul Kitchen cover was great, as were a couple other tracks.

Albums are the problem for me. There are plenty of punk songs I like.

Yes I've tried Ramones. I'll check out the other two as well. I'm not sure if my enjoyment of London Calling comes from its poppiness or that I really wouldn't call it a punk record ๐Ÿค”

I don't know how many of these qualify as punk albums, but whatever:

The Only Ones - The Only Ones
Parquet Courts - Light Up Gold
Public Image Ltd. - Metal Box
The Fall - Live at the Witch Trials
The Slits - Cut
Dr. Feelgood - Down By The Jetty
Johnny Thunders - So Alone
Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True
Iceage - You're Nothing
Television - Marquee Moon
The Pop Group - Y
Weezer - Pinkerton
Faraquet - The View from this Tower
The Cure - Three Imaginary Boys
The Modern Lovers - The Modern Lovers
Bad Brains - Bad Brains
Circle Jerks - Wild in the Streets
Magazine - Real Life

Actually, after going through this list, I've got a funny feeling that none of these are punk albums. Ho hum.
