Rolling Stones Top 10 Albums of the 90's

Rolling Stone has recently published a list of the greatest albums from the 90’s. Now you’re talking I love 90’s music! Usually these things are dull to read, I find it very hard to see the value in lists. Depending on where you read the list will depend on the bias of the content I am sure NMA would pick a completely different 10 and there is no Hiphop in the lsit when you consider it was this decade it really got big with some quality material released.
This list was voted for by people, ok people know what they are talking about don’t they? Well yes and no, once you start getting peoples votes involved it all becomes very predictable so I find it hard to see the point. So here it is anyway and a link to the site if you are inclined to take a peak.
Nirvana – Nevermind
Radiohead – OK Computer
Pearl Jam – Ten
U2 – Actung Baby
Oasis – (What’s the story) Morning Glory?
Smashing Pumpkins – Siamese Dream
Metallica – Black Album
Jeff Buckley – Grace
Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Guns & Roses – Use Your Illusion I & II (errrr Rollign Stone thats 2 albums!!! good call though)


So if you remember the 90s with any great passion please leave in the comments your ten favorite albums of the 90s they can be anything even non metal! Basically let’s see if we can’t get at least a few lists by individuals proving that no one list is definitive and that not one person will whole heartedly agree with that list. For one who would vote for that Oasis album errrr Defiantly Maybe????
Heres mine. (No particular order)
Alice in Chains – Facelift
Janes Addiction – Ritual De La Habitual
Megadeth – Countdown to Extinction
Marilyn Manson – Antichrist Superstar
Nine Inch Nails – Downward Spiral
Opeth – Still Life
Korn - Korn
Deftones – Around the Fur
Ozzy Osbourne – No More Tears
Metallica – Black Album



There are a few more that could easily be on that list – this is why I hate lists!!!!!!!
Pantera – Cowboys From Hell / Vulgar Display     
Dimmu Borgir – Enthrone Darkness Triumphant        
Alice In Chains – Dirt / Alice In Chains
Rage Against the Machine – Rage Against the Machine
Korn – Korn / Life Is Peachy
Emperor – In The Nightside Eclipse
Fear Factory – Remanufacture
Nirvana – Nevermind / In Utero       
Opeth – My Arms your Hearse       
Slayer -Seasons In The Abyss      
Oasis _ Defo Maybe      
Blur  - Parklife
Radiohead – the Bends / Ok Computer
Smashign Pumpkins – Siamese Dream – Mellon Collie
Pearl Jam - Ten       
Satyricon – Nemesis Davina        
White Zombie – Sexorcisto:Devil Music. Vol. 1

I could go on and on and on and on……….
