Trade Test Transmissions is the fourth studio album by English pop punk band Buzzcocks. It was released on 2 June 1993 by record label Castle and was their first release in fourteen years, following up 1979's A Different Kind of Tension.
Trade Test Transmissions has been generally well received by critics.
Jason Crock of Pitchfork was generally favourable, though writing "the album remains a strictly diehards-only affair."CMJ later qualified it as "a superb record which oddly got lost in the shuffle".
All songs written and composed by Pete Shelley, except as noted.
