Top 5 albums from the nineties
Mobius_Logic:
i am way too lazy too look at when all my favorite albums were made, but I think The Moon and Antartica by Modest Mouse should be on there. My favorite of all time, it just never gets old.

These aren't really my Top 5*, just 5 random albums from the 90's that icked my ass, and still do to this day...
Circle Of Dust - Disengage
Zao - Where Blood And Fire Bring Rest
Training For Utopia - Plastic Soul Impalement
Blindside - ST
Argyle Park - Misguided
All the other stuff I listen to that hails from the 90's, I've just gotten into in the last 4 or 5 years, so I can't really count them...these 5 cd's and the bands that made them pretty much got me into all of the stuff that I love now...so, I don't necessarily say they're the BEST albums from the 90's, but they definately have a place in my heart, right?
*so I didn't quite follow the rules...sue me

I'd also be interested in hearing how much of this music people here were listening to when it came out and how much is retrospective. I'm almost certain I wasn't listening to any of the stuff I listed in the 90's. Then again I wasn't really into music much back then. I'm especially curious if you listed one of the Weezer albums since they have a bit of a reputation for inducing nostalgia.

Let's see, I was born in 88, so by the time the 90s ended I was 12.
Fugazi - Red Medicine - Not at all, i wasn't aware of Fugazi's existance until Argument
Neutral Milk Hotel - Ij I listened to this a fair bit due to my dad liking it. He likes On Avery Island best though.
Radiohead - OK Computer - this and the Bends were staples of my house's stereo during the late 90s.
Belle and Sebastian - If You Are Feeling Sinister - I never listened to Belle
and Sebastian until 3 years ago
Yo La Tengo -I Can Hear The Heart Beating as One - I listened to a large amount of Yo La Tengo, again, because of my dad

Well. I was going to go through Last Splash track by track, but Emilio said "Pod is really the superior album" and I lost all drive. So guys, thank E for this.

You know, I totally understand what you're saying, but all of this implying we can establish some objective assessment that is somehow distinct from how you receive an album is kinda... odd.
If we decide something is the best album, but it's not something we like listening to, then what are we really saying? What practical value is there in "goodness" if it's independent of enjoyment?
Bla bla...
