Smashing Pumpkins - Melancholy (actually, the 5 disc aeroplane cd is better if it includes all the songs off Meloncholy) Elliott Smith - Self-titled Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted Nirvana - in Utero STP - Purple Soundgarden - Superunknown Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream Radiohead - Ok Computer Heatmiser - Mic City Son
In no particular order: 1. Bossanova - The Pixies 2. Trompe Le Monde - The Pixies 3. Radiohead - The Bends 4. Radiohead - OK Computer Ahhh crud. Actually my list is pretty much Blake's list replacing Yo La Tengo and Nirvana with the 2 pixies albums.
Also, if you are posting in here you might want to check this band out... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_Fast_Action
Where's all the love for Hammer, Tone Loc, Marky Mark, Spice Girls, and Vanilla Ice? OK, in no particular order, here are mine (I could be a smart ass and just list all the greatest hits albums from 60's and 70's artists, but I will refrain)... The Sky is Crying by SRV Luck of the Draw by Bonnie Raitt Nevermind by Nirvana Achtung Baby by U2 Four by Blues Traveler Representing the Mambo by Little Feat Shake Your Money Maker by The Black Crowes Live at Liberty Lunch by Joe Ely Letter to Laredo by Joe Ely Monster by R.E.M.
I forgot to read Pitchfork's list first, but here it goes. I don't really listen to a lot of music, but these are some 90s albums I think are great. Nirvana - Nevermind Tool - Aenima Nas - Illmatic Weezer - Weezer Outkast - Aquemini Radiohead - The Bends Beck - Odelay Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the Wu-Tang Jeff Buckley - Grace
Wu-tang - (36 Chambers) Black Moon - Enta the Stage RH - Ok Computer Mobb Deep - The Infamous Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger I'll try to think of 5 more later
hell, i can't remember and am to lazy to research. sooooo, i cherry-picked from the albums listed so far. in no particular order: Radiohead - Ok Computer Nirvana - Nevermind The Jesus Lizard - Liar Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear the Heart Beating as One Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted Jeff Buckley - Grace Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet Son Volt - Trace
2PAC - All Eyez on Me Makaveli - The 7 Day Theory Dr. Dre - The Chronic U2 - Achtung Baby Nirvana - Nevermind Notorious BIG - Life After Death Pearl Jam - Ten Soundgarden - Superunknown Geto Boys - Uncut Dope Master P - Ghetto D
Hard to come up with a top 10. These are the ones that popped into my head without any research. Metallica - Black Album Pearl Jam - Ten Nirvana - Nevermind AC/DC - Razor's Edge Aerosmith - Living On The Edge Bon Jovi - Keep The Faith Kid Rock - Devil Without A Cause Hootie & The Blowfish - Cracked Rear View Dave Matthews Band - Crash Creed - My Own Prison
Thank God somebody mention Pac & Biggie, I thought it would never happen. Definently TOP 10, even in country category.
IMO 1) Illmatic 2) All Eyez on Me 3) The Chronic 4) The Black Album - Metallica 5) Achtung Baby 6) 36 Chambers 7) Nevermind 8) *****z4Life - NWA 9) Ready to Die 10) Weezer Honorable Mentions 11) Reasonable Doubt 12) Ok Planet - Radiohead 13) Tical 14) Homework - Daft Punk 15) Fear of A Black Planet
Definitely. The 90's were the best decade for hip-hop, and it's not close. Some others that I didn't mention were Doggystyle, Warren G - G Funk Era, ATLiens, and Aquemini albums.
RH- OK Computer Modest Mouse- The Lonesome Crowded West RHCP- Blood Sugar Sex Magik RATM- Self Titled Sublime- Self Titiles just a few off the top of my head.
