Hardcore punk doesn't get better than this.

[Jimmy Dread]

Bloody ace. I especially like to sing Drug Me with my church choir. The opening verse sounds great with a pipe organ and associated acoustics.

Viva Las Vegas is genius.

Best punk album hands down. "Holiday in Cambodia" and "Kill the Poor" are great, but my favorites that tend to get overlooked are "Ill in the Head", "Chemical Warfare", and "When Ya Get Drafted".

But mostly "Ill in the Head".

[Cymro2011]

Friggin' masterpiece. My favourite track is probably Chemical Warfare.

[sp4cetiger]

It's more accessible than most hardcore, but that's partly because of its quality. Probably even underrated.

[RockyRaccoon]

There are few punk albums better, if there are any.
