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.
