Best Album of the 90's?

[Lancemc]

Go.

 

[LemonMelon]

OK Computer. Next question.

 

[Lancemc]

You fail.

Next volunteer?

 

[LemonMelon]

Let me play to your tastes:

The Bends
Midnite Vultures
Homogenic
Achtung Baby

Am I getting closer to the supposed "correct" answer?

 

[Lancemc]

You had your chance Buck-o. No hints.

I keed, I keed.

OK Computer is a perfectly acceptable answer.
















...Just a wrong one.

 

[LMP]

Use Your Illusion I
Ten
OK Computer
(What's the Story) Morning Glory?
Automatic for the People
Achtung Baby
The Soft Bulletin
Siamese Dream
Blood Sugar Sex Magik

pick one.

 

[LemonMelon]

OK Computer
(What's the Story) Morning Glory?
Automatic for the People
Achtung Baby
The Soft Bulletin

Good stuff. I'm surprised you didn't place Clouds Taste Metallic over Soft Bulletin, however.

 

[Lancemc]

Use Your Illusion I
Ten
OK Computer
(What's the Story) Morning Glory?
Automatic for the People
Achtung Baby
The Soft Bulletin
Siamese Dream
Blood Sugar Sex Magik

pick one.

Of your little list here, Automatic for the People, OK Comp, AB and Soft Bulletin are all perfectly acceptable answers. Wrong, but acceptable.

 

[GibsonGirl]

I love all of these albums far too much to say which one I think is the best.

Achtung Baby
Ágætis Byrjun
Amused To Death
Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Judgement
OK Computer
Pop
The Bends
The Lonesome Crowded West
Zooropa

Followed by AB

 

[Screwtape2]

Outside of many of those already mentioned:

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Adore by Smashing Pumpkins
2nd Wind by Todd Rundgren

 

[LemonMelon]

Ágætis Byrjun

Is it wrong that I've never really heard anything by Sigur Ros, particularly this album? I've heard a great deal about it...

I find it sort of "meh". It's pretty.

Ágætis Byrjun is absolutely beautiful. If you want to check it out, it's probably better to download first. Sigur Rós are the kind of band that people either love or hate.

I love their videos videos. Just watch this until the end, it's perfect: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wi7G-3qBbrU

Will do. May I assume they made it onto your prog island list?

Priest = Aura
Ferment

Depending on the mood. Both from 1992 -- a good year.

Those aren't your guilty pleasures, are they?

 

[elevation2u]

nobody appreciates either


ghost of tom joad is especially forgotten/underrated imo
the title track alone is

i remember rage against the machine doing a horrible cover at one point

and nobody ever talks about Mule Variations

 

[Lancemc]

I just finished listening to THE best album of the 90's.

It was pure unmatched beauty.

I just meant that those are very sophisticated, well-respected records. Hardly guilty pleasure material.

 

[elevation2u]

but knowing Lancemc

he will listen to a different album tomorrow

that is "Seriosuly, the best record made OF ALL TIME"
