They Say All Media Guide

This 1988 collection from Brighton, England, punk ballers Peter & the Test Tube Babies falls just one song short of 1996′s Punk Singles Collection, but the 22 tracks that grace Castle’s lazily titled Best of Peter & the Test Tube Babies remain as nefarious, off the wall, and infectious as they did in the early ’80s. All of the band’s hits are here (“Banned from the Pubs,” “Run Like Hell,” “Zombie Creeping Flesh,” “Jinx,” and “Intensive Care”), as well as deeper cuts like “I’m Getting Pissed for Christmas,” “Peacehaven Wild Kids,” and “Trapper Ain’t Got a Bird,” making it a must-have for British punk completists. – James Christopher Monger
