got a few more days until i release the results, keep sending them in

I've tried, honest I have, but I just can't get excited about the 90s. When I try to think about that decade I just think grunge, britpop and baggy, none of which are things that I would want to feature in a top 25 that I had created.

Bring on the official 50 greatest albums of the 80s. Or have I already missed that?

No you haven't missed it, I'm eagerly awaiting this too.

if you wish, if 25 is too many, you do can few as 10, my point system works in a way that award their number one 25 points, all the way down, and this mean a top ten can work like this

1 - 25 points
2 - 24 points
3 - 23 points
.
.
10 - 16 points

i expanded it to 25 based on observations of last one done by SYRfox, with a lot of people adding many more then the required allotment, this way anything between 11-25 can get points based on that, and not be left out

on the 80s list i haven't decided if i will do that, i suppose i could, but we'll see, just wanna finish up this list

Okay, here's 12:

12. Beck - Odelay


EDIT - late addition: Atari Teenage Riot - The Future of War, new in at number 6. I can't believe it took a trip to the coffee machine to think of that one. All numbers below that shift down one.

Youve got me there

kid a was 2000 just for the record!

shit i was going to put repeater on my list...i knew i forgot something...

Shame on you !!!! :D

fugazifan, you should be reminded of Fugazi EVERYTIME you post!

You could switch it with Kid A in your list, since Kid A came out in 2000.

But shouldn't it be stuff that still stands up today? Otherwise it's not "Greatest albums of the 90's" but "Albums you thought were great during the 90's".
By that logic Nirvana would probably occupy 4 or 5 of my slots even though I've barely listened to them in the last decade...

In no particular order...

Radiohead - Ok Computer
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Sonic Youth - Washing Machine
Mansun - Six
Blur - 13
Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain
Pixies - Trompe Le Monde
Nirvana - In Utero
At The Drive-In - Relationship of Command
Nirvana - Nevermind
PJ Harvey - Dry
Fugazi - Red Medicine
Portishead - Dummy
R.E.M - Automatic for the People
Sigur Ros - Agætis Byrjun
GYBE! - F#A#oo
Slint - Spiderland
Beck - Odelay
Bjork - Homogenic
Massive Attack - Mezzanine
Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible
