'Loveless' is one of the greatest albums of all-time. Get on it. Also, 'Darklands' by the Jesus and Mary Chain. Do that. My top 10 at the moment (no particular order): Chavez - Ride the Fader My Bloody Valentine - Loveless Don Caballero - What Burns Never Returns Unwound - Repetition Swirlies - They've Spent Their Wild... Tiger Trap - S/T Flaming Lips - Soft Bulletin Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime The Jesus Lizard - Goat Polvo - Cor Crane Secret Sonic Youth - Washing Machine Stereolab - Emperor Tomato Ketchup Black Tambourine - S/T Boredoms - Vision Creation Newsun Ah eff it. There's just too many.
This one is my favorite list so far. I wore out OK Computer, Dummy, and Odelay in particular. I'd add Siamese Dream, only because I wore that sh_t out too. Some I haven't seen, call this my "alternate" top ten... (have sped through the thread so I apologize if I'm repeating any): Jeff Buckley - Grace No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom Reel Big Fish - Turn the Radio Off The Sundays - Blind Tom Petty - Wildflowers The Verve - Urban Hymns Lauren Hill - The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill Joseph Arthur - Come to Where I'm From Fiona Apple - Tidal The Beastie Boys - Ill Communication
Oh, I was actually just talking about shoegaze in general. It's all good, though. Speaking of MBV, I've been jamming the hell out of Ecstasy and Wine recently. Great stuff. Also, check out that Swirlies album I mentioned if you haven't before. Really, really underrated. Ok, I'm done.
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic Dr. Dre - The Chronic Lenny Kravitz - Moma Said Digable planets - Reachin (A New Refutation of Time and Space) Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle Jane's Addiction - Ritual de lo Habitual Fugees - The Score The Cranberries - Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We? Nirvana - Nevermind Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream Notorious BIG - Ready to Die Porno for Pyros - Porno for Pyros Pearl Jam - Ten Ill Al Scratch - Creep wit' Me A Tribe Called Quest - The Low End Theory
this and "Midnight Marauders" would make my list. "Before These Crowded Streets" - DMB "Ten" - Pearl Jam others i'm forgetting
Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power Portishead - Dummy Jane's Addiction - Ritual De Lo Habitual Sublime - 40 oz. Ministry - Psalm 69 Frank Black - Teenager of the Year Morphine - Cure for Pain Primus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese Radiohead - OK Computer Pixies - Doolittle Honorable Mentions: Alice in Chains - Dirt GWAR - Scumdogs of the Universe Ice Cube - Lethal Injection Ice-T - OG Rage against the machine - Rage against the Machine Pearl Jam - Vs.
I have not gone through the entire thread, just a few pages, but I am suprised there were virtually no mentions of these: Third Eye Blind - Third Eye Blind Matchbox 20 - Yourself or Someone Like You Stone Temple Pilots - Core / Purple Bush - Sixteen Stone (First album when their sound was still fresh) Live - Throwing Copper Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness
I threw it in since they just toured 20th anniv. of it here in 2010, but then saw that later. I have no problem substituting Trompe into my list as well.

Some of the CDs I wore out... Black Sabbath - 1990 - Tyr Judas Priest - 1990 - Painkiller Jethro Tull - 1991 - Catfish Rising Pearl Jam - 1991 - Ten Iron Maiden - 1992 - Fear of the Dark Alice in Chains - 1992 - Dirt Marillion - 1994 - Brave Soundgarden - 1994 - Superunknown Joan Osborne - 1995 - Relish Seven Mary Three - 1996 - American Standard
Good call. I think this album is great but nowhere near my favorites of the decade. Again, great album, though. Repped.
I absolutely cannot believe I forgot to mention this album in my ten. That album is amazing. I wore that out... I even had 2 girlfriends end up with it after we broke up and still bought it a third time. Damn, I also forgot to mention Ben Folds Five... Both the self titled album (with Philosophy and Jackson Cannery) and Whatever and Ever Amen.
