    Not at all, I just enjoy joking around with the hipsters, scenesters and their ilk.

    Nation of Ulysses - Plays Pretty for Baby
    My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
    Radiohead - OK Computer
    Fugazi - Steady Diet of Nothing
    Brainiac - Hissing Prigs in Static Couture
    Voivod - Nothingface
    Pavement - Slanted and Enchanted
    King Missle - Happy Hour
    Shudder to Think - Pony Express Record
    Mr. Bungle - Disco Volante

    I listened to these albums pretty much non-stop through the 90s and still listen to most of them pretty frequently, particularly when I'm making sweet love to your mom.

    Everyone who picked Soundgarden liked Superunknown better than Badmotorfinger? I don't get that.

    In no order:

    Nirvana- Nevermind
    Public Enemy - Fear of a Black Planet
    Alice in Chains - Dirt
    Anthrax - Persistence of Time (I loved it at the time and wife and I bonded over this later so it has to get a nod)
    Neutral Milk Hotel - Aeroplane
    Tribe - Low End
    Outcast - Aquemini
    Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger
    De La Soul - Buhloone Mindstate
    Weezer - Weezer

    mbv - loveless
    cocteau twins - heaven or las vegas
    ride - nowhere

    slowdive - just for a day
    slowdive - soulvaki
    slowdive - pygmalion
