One Album For Every Year You Are Alive
David_Dovey:
If you have to get so defensive about your taste in music maybe you should reconsider it?
Snail of Doom:
I'm not actually that defensive. Most of that was for humorous effect, 'cause I know people will disagree with me. I don't actually think most of the people here are pretentious. In fact, I consider a lot of you to be pretty objective and informed.
Skibas_clavicle:
I love this thread. Like, a lot. But do you know how hard I tried not to repeat?! It was too hard somethings. Fuck you, everyone who took Built to Spill's 1994 place from me. You are fuckers!

1989 - Yo La Tengo - President Yo La Tengo
1988 - Beat Happening - Jamboree
1987 - Sonic Youth - Sister
I can't think of anything for 1990 or 1992. I guess I could fill them in with the appropriate Sonic Youth releases but that would mean three Sonic Youth albums and three Yo La Tengo albums. I guess I am pretty repetitive.
Edit: I got one for 1992, even though it's a compilation thingy.
Faker:
Man this was hard, so I tried not to over think this, with the result that I'll no doubt return to this thread in a few days time and curse my own choices.
Think the hardest part was the fact that there were some outstanding years, and some piss poor ones. If I had to pick my 26 favorite albums of all time, I'm not sure how much crossover there would be with the below. Also apparently I'm one of the older posters! Who knew? Depressed by how much more eloquent you young whipper-snappers are than me!
