Before You Were Punk 2 is a compilation album released in 1999 by Vagrant Records. It is a sequel to 1997's Before You Were Punk and consists of a number of late-1990s punk rock and independent bands covering songs that were popularised during the 1980s "new wave" musical movement.
In contrast to Before You Were Punk, which was released at a time when Vagrant Records did not have a large roster of artists and therefore relied on contributions from bands on other record labels, Before You Were Punk 2 features several bands that had recently signed to Vagrant. These include No Motiv, The Hippos, The Get Up Kids, and the Gotohells. Rocket from the Crypt would also sign to the label the following year.
Track 5 recorded and mixed by Chris Fudurich at Mat Hadder Studios and Chateau Chaumont Studios. Produced by Chris Fudurich, Ariel Rechtshaid, and Rich Zahniser.
Track 6 recorded and mixed by The Bouncing Souls and Michael Ward at Big Blue Meanie Studios
Track 7 recorded by Alex Brahl and mixed by Chad Blinman at Mad Hatter Studios
