It's A Punk Thing, You Wouldn't Understand was a compilation LP of Chicago-based punk and emo bands released in 1993 by Shakefork Records. It would be the last release issued by Shakefork before label head Scott Broadhurst relocated to San Francisco (the final Shakefork release issued under Scott's reign would be issued after he moved) and the only LP released by the label. A couple years after the release, Scott would uncover a batch of unsold records when he returned to IL to visit family and these were sold through Underdog Records with Shakefork's Downers Grove address blacked out with marker.
