Punk Goes Metal was the first compilation album to be released as part of the Punk Goes... series created by Fearless Records. It features covers of heavy metal songs by punk rock bands and was released on August 1, 2000.

The Aquabats' contribution, "Why Rock?", is actually an original composition, credited to fictional band "Leather Pyrate".[2] To date, this remains the only non-cover to appear on a Punk Goes... covers compilation, excluding the Punk Goes Acoustic albums.
