Guillotine was a 10-inch New Wave sampler released by Virgin Records in February 1978, containing eight songs by some of Virgin's leading performers of the time.

Songs of note included XTC's Traffic Light Rock, which was otherwise unavailable for many years, and Linton Kwesi Johnson's All Wi' Doin' Is Defendin', which was one of the first reggae songs to be included on a new wave compilation album.

It was also notable for containing sleeve notes that were apparently Richard Branson's publishing debut.
