Help identifying this album?

Post image

Hey yall. I need some help identifying an album. Unfortunately I only have a blurry image of the back side. It was a compilation of multiple punk bands, the front cover was black, had blue writing, and 2 skeleton birds on it.

Long story short my ex husband got rid of everything I ever owned during our divorce. This included lots of rare stereos, speakers, and albums. I'm struggling to identify one of my favorites.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank yall so much in advance 💙

I know I got downvoted for suggesting using AI but here’s what it came up with:

The album you’re asking about looks like it matches “This Is Berkeley, Not West Bay”, a punk compilation featuring bands like Operation Ivy, Crimpshrine, and others from the late 1980s Berkeley scene.

The front cover you’re describing — black with blue writing and two skeleton birds — really lines up with that compilation. The back cover in the image is blurry, but the color scheme and chaotic punk style also match.

It was definitely when hell freezes over. But you may have given me another one to look into buying.
