Punk Rock is Your Friend is the third compilation album by the Seal Beach, California record label Kung Fu Records, released in 2002. It features artists signed to the label at the time. It also features songs by artists who were not signed to the label though who have contributed songs to some of their releases, such as No Use for a Name. It was the first of the label's samplers to carry the "Punk Rock is Your Friend" title, which then became the title of the ongoing sampler series.
