Best album of the nineties
« on: February 10, 2003, 01:33:00 am »
I know that some of you might be bored about this type of topics, but I was listening to this album now and I think it is the best album of the nineties (and of course there is nothing in the last three years that gets close to it).<P>Breeders - POD

I know this goes a tad bit over the "pop" lines for this board, but I tossed it in the player over the weekend and was amazed again: Radiohead Ok Computer.  Just something about that Paranoid android- Letdown-Lucky-Fitter happier mixing bowl style of this album that makes me keep listening.

Psalm 69 by Ministry, but i havent had alot of time to think about the question, thats just the first one that came to mind. Obviously Nevermind by Nirvana was a great one.

"Souvlaki"- Slowdive<P>The only CD from the 90's that I play on a regular basis. <P>"Mezzanine" from Massive Attack is a close second.

I'll  call OK Computer and raise you The Bends, MBV Loveless, and Verve Urban Hymns.

I was listening to Souvlaki and Too Far to Care yesterday, good albums but definitely not the best IMHO.  Then again I cant think of one that sticks out as the best.

Primal Scream - Vanishing Point (only because it's a little more focused than "Screamadelica")
T.Rex

Not that I'm a big fan of any of their music, but I find the Bends much more listenable than OK Computer.
