Before You Were Punk: A Punk Rock Tribute to 80's New Wave is een compilatiealbum uit 1997 van het Amerikaanse platenlabel Vagrant Records. Het bevat twaalf nummers van punkbands die actief waren gedurende de jaren 90, waarvan de meeste uit Zuid-Californië afkomstig waren. De nummers op het album zijn covers van bekende new wave-nummers uit de jaren 80. Vanwege het succes dat het label met deze compilatiealbum behaalde (er werden meer dan 70.000 platen verkocht), werd er in 1999 een vervolgalbum getiteld Before You Were Punk 2: Another Punk Rock Tribute to 80's New Wave uitgegeven. rdf:langString
Before You Were Punk is a compilation album released in 1997 by Vagrant Records. It consists of a number of mid-1990s punk rock bands (most of them from southern California) covering songs that were popularised during the 1980s "new wave" musical movement. It was an ambitious release for the label, which was still in its early stages, and proved to be a success by selling over 70,000 copies. It was followed by an equally successful sequel, Before You Were Punk 2, in 1999. rdf:langString

It was followed by an equally successful sequel, Before You Were Punk 2, in 1999. Because Vagrant Records did not yet have an extensive roster of artists, the compilation relied mostly on contributions from bands on other record labels. Only Face to Face and Automatic 7 had previously released records through Vagrant. By contrast, Before You Were Punk 2 would feature more bands that had signed to the label between 1997 and 1999.
