Pantophobia: When you have five minutes to spare :rolleyes: , please could you add together the scores across all albums for each of the bands featured and give the top ten bands? Obviously SY will be #1, but I'm interested to see who else is in there, and where they come. Ta.

Otherwise, good list! REALLY surprised "Goat" wasn't in the top 10 or something. What a great fucking record. Not surprised that Thinking Fellers wasn't in the list though they should have been. Good to see so many Boredoms albums in there.


Maybe it's a bit harsh, but I tend to agree wih you concerning Loveless, Adam, I think this album is overrated, it doesn't deserve the 1st position.


The same for Spiderland. I love this album, I really enjoy listening to it, but I can't put it before my favourite Polvo, Pavement, Sonic Youth, Sebadoh... albums on my list, it's inconceivable.



How many indie points did I lose with this sentence, Alien Anal ? :D

good thread.
bravo.

Spiderland DESERVES to be number one. Loveless doesn't.

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man..."

[Sandbag] 10.21.2008 11:51 AM

well.. Loveless is a helluva record... so i guess it deserves nș1... :D

SYRFox 10.21.2008 12:43 PM

This list seriously lacks some Soulja Boy

atsonicpark 10.21.2008 12:48 PM

Yeah I agree with Derek. Spiderland is an amazing record. It deserves all the love it can get. I'd have sex with the worst part of that album before kissing the best part of Loveless on the cheek.

gmku 10.21.2008 12:52 PM

Loveless is hands down the best album of the 90s... right after Repeater.

There. I said it.

haha it is a fuckin good album indeed

So I'm presuming that Me, Herr & Bowels, Nefeli and probably Porky voted Fushitsusha highly - No-one else went for Pathetique? No-one else nominated NNCK's Letters from the Earth?

I'm pleased to see ATR's The Future of War in there, though I suspect without my ranking it wouldn't've featured.

Anyway. Insert usual scathing comment about you all having cloth-ears.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 10.21.2008 01:31 PM

Over all I thought it was a good list. Wish I voted

greedrex 10.21.2008 02:24 PM

SYRFox 10.21.2008 02:35 PM

[Sandbag] 10.21.2008 03:17 PM

ye, thought about it, but it didnt make it on my list.. :P
what would you pick?

davenotdead 10.21.2008 03:18 PM

richard d james was #3 on my list

i could take x and wear 90s clothing and listen to that for hours on end

HECKLER SPRAY 10.21.2008 04:26 PM

And the Beastie Boys ? Rage Against the Machine ?
Blur ? Oasis ? The Spice Girls ?....
Why Not ?

uhler 10.21.2008 04:38 PM

i should have voted. i would've voted for every discount album that was released in the 90's and that's it. they still wouldn't have made it in the top 60 though.
