Top 5 albums from the nineties
E. Spaceman:
Recently, one of my friends asked me if I could make her a mix for a certain band, this has basically destroyed the way I was thinking when I made my post in this thread. I have recanted, my favourite 90s albums now are
KharBevNor:
Of both those huge nineties lists I like 2 bands, and both not that much. So, yeah, I think the decade sucks.
And of course there were manufactured and commercialised bands before the 90's, but the level of penetration was just phenomenal. Commercialisation started trying to take over almost every facet of music in the nineties. It pretty much killed punk, I can't think of one punk album I like from the 90's, except maybe some Driller Killer shit.

As a big fan of Jawbreaker, Leatherface, and other 90's punk bands, I am going to have to disagree with this so hard.
Brian Majestic:
Okay, Okay, since absolutely nobody cares about my list, I feel the need to finally post it. No real order to it.
Jawbreaker - 24 Hour Revenge Therapy
Mmm...pop-punk...Blake and crew's finest, in my opinion. Top punk release of the 90s,
Three Blue Teardrops - One Part Fist
Neo-Rockabilly? Cow-punk? Just plain awesome? All three, thanks, and produced by Alan Wilson (Sharks), to boot!
Los Straitjackets - Viva!
The instrumental squad's second, and still the best (though 'Sing Along With' comes close) .Fourteen classics going from surf to spy to every other instrumental genre.
The Meteors - Meteors Vs The World
I can't help it. I'm a huge psychobilly fan, and the Meteors are still the best band in it, twenty five years later. This one's a two-LP collection that came out in 1999 featuring 17 new tracks, 8 or so live tracks, and a handful of remakes of stuff from their early 80s stuff.
The 5.6.7.8s - Either Can't Help It or Bomb the Twist (i cant pick, sorry...)
I've always loved garage. I've always loved all-female bands. This takes the best of both and creates fuzzed-out yumminess. Yes, yes, "Woo-Hoo" is on Bomb the Twist, but there's lots of better songs they wrote, too.
Other good stuff - Elysian Fields - Bleed Your Cedar (Steve Albini produced it!), Radiohead - The Bends, Trashwomen - Spend the Night With..., Tori Amos - Under the Pink, Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggy Style, pretty much everything Guitar Wolf released in the 90s, and a handful of other releases
Jeridus:
AFI - Answer That And Stay Fashionable
Alkaline Trio - Goddamnit
Elliott Smith - XO
Rancid - And Out Come The Wolves
Weezer - Pinkerton
... as well as all that alt-rock everyone seems to hate nowadays
