breakingthefragile: breakingthefragile's 91 Favorite Albums from the '90s

breakingthefragile 02.07.13	I've been wanting to do something like this for quite some time, as the '90s are my favorite decade in music. With the exception of the top 2, these are compiled in no particular order, I just added them in as I thought of them. But yeah, OK Computer is my favorite album of the '90s, with Loveless cutting it close but coming in second place.
oltnabrick 02.07.13	FLEX
Trebor. 02.07.13	I got 1999 problems but a lack of great 90s albums ain't one
Keyblade 02.07.13	wow 88 and 85, ilu man. then i see Loveless isn't one, hmm might have to rethink that
Curse. 02.07.13	you have Pearl Jam and not Alice in Chains tsk tsk
Tyrael 02.07.13	Props for 64
GiaNXGX 02.07.13	70's > good list
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Thanks guys. Mezz probably would have been on this but, I only wanted one album per artist on the list, and I'd argue that Blue Lines is a lot more influential.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Also, honorable mentions to: Autechre ~ Tri Repetae Massive Attack ~ Mezzanine R.E.M. ~ Automatic for the People Mos Def ~ Black on Both Sides Depeche Mode ~ Violator The Verve ~ Urban Hymns The Prodigy ~ Experience The Prodigy ~ Music for the Jilted Generation Bjork ~ Homogenic Garth Brooks ~ No Fences Garth Brooks ~ Ropin' the Wind Oasis ~ (What's the Story) Morning Glory? And some others I'm probably forgetting at the moment.
SIMBOLIC 02.07.13	"breaking the fragile" you could make a fagcore band with an excellent verb the noun like that
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	The potential is limitless, yeah.
Curse. 02.07.13	my deathcore band is called Kill the Thing. We're pretty brutal
slipnslide 02.07.13	6 is 1 thx
cb123 02.07.13	90 blows the vast majority of these albums out of the water
GnarlyShillelagh 02.07.13	25 is 1 thx
foxxxythnksustnk 02.07.13	has enough good stuff pos
GiaNXGX 02.07.13	list got consistently gay props
evilford 02.07.13	good to see 90 and 65, although I'd put them at 1 and 2 :/
theacademy 02.07.13	lol radiohead
theacademy 02.07.13	cool list but where the PRECIOUS ACTUAL FUCK is chevelle
Typhoner 02.07.13	Quite a lot of great stuff on this list, but it are all classics of course.
KILL 02.07.13	wheres the dm
theacademy 02.07.13	donde esta la dm
wabbit 02.07.13	lol you can't talk about dm in mexican
theacademy 02.07.13	i made it feminine it was a choice i made and i made it alone.
klap 02.07.13	jesus christ lern2elliottsmith
anarchistfish 02.07.13	you should have waited until you realised f#a# is the best album ever created until you made this list
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	@klap Sorry man, but none of his albums hit that 5/5 status for me. A lot of 4.5's, but I'm just not feeling like any of them make it up that extra .5. I'm horrible, I know.
anarchistfish 02.07.13	onde está o gybe I'm surprised how many 5s some people give out.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	@AnarchistFish That'd probably be when pigs fly though. Or when I rate The Fragile higher than a 3 as well, both unlikely scenarios it seems.
lucazade22 02.07.13	Would've liked to see these...: Third Eye Blind - self-titled American Football - self-titled Megadeth - Rust in Peace Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
Atari 02.07.13	nice list
Chortles 02.07.13	1 is the king rock on
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	@lucazade22 Blood Sugar Sex Magik almost made it, but Californication is only a 4/5 in my opinion, and that goes for Third Eye Blind's self-titled album as well. Even though I think it's Megadeth's best, Rust in Peace comes up to a 4.5/5 for me. As for American Football's self-titled debut, well, I just think that album sucks personally lol, sorry.
anarchistfish 02.07.13	Why 91?
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	lol why did my list just get un-featured?
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	@AnarchistFish Refer to the last sentence of the list's description.
klap 02.07.13	dk but its back
Atari 02.07.13	needs alanis morisette -jagged little pill
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	It has the featured icon next to it but it doesn't show up as featured on the page. Huh, that's weird. Oh well. @Atari Phenomenal album, but it's only a 4.5/5 for me.
Atari 02.07.13	So when you say only 4.5/5 are you implying these are all 5's for you?
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Yeah. Once again, like I say in the description of the list, this list is entirely comprised of albums that are 5/5's for me. Classics and such, at least it's my belief that they are.
Atari 02.07.13	jagged little pill destroys the miseducation of lauryn hill lol but still a sweet list.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Haha I would strongly argue against that, but thank you man!
GiaNXGX 02.07.13	It has the featured icon next to it but it doesn't show up as featured on the page. Huh, that's weird. Oh well. my list's magick destroyed your feature, sorry.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	It came back as soon as you said that lol. You've got the magic touch Gia.
Atari 02.07.13	I'm old so I actually owned a physical CD of alanis morisette and that lauryn hill album. Doo Wop (that thing) ruled but I don't remember enjoying the rest of the album that much whereas jagged little pill had like 5 songs I was obsessed with lol.
lucazade22 02.07.13	'needs alanis morisette -jagged little pill' YES!
GiaNXGX 02.07.13	ugh i cannot keep this off the front page ^^^^
CK 02.07.13	breakingthefragile's favorites or allmusic.com's favorites? ;)
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Nah, I'm pretty sure I plagiarized this entire thing off of ArtistDirect.
CK 02.07.13	Gotcha. But hey, where's the U2?!
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Achtung Baby's awesome, but it's not their definitive album. That's something I took into account as well when making the list. If an album an artist released in the '90s was their magnum opus.
CK 02.07.13	Definitely not their definitive album, but I like it more than The Joshua Tree (which is their definitive album imo). War has to be my favorite, regardless of my ratings ;)
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Yeah, when I said definitive album I was referring to The Joshua Tree lol. U2 is a great band.
mindleviticus 02.07.13	Dots and Loops and Cobras and Phases Play Voltage in the Milky Night are so much better than Emperor Tomato Ketchup
YoYoMancuso 02.07.13	extremely solid top 10. 10 is my favorite album of all time.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	The list is compiled in no particular order except for the top 2, but thanks man. The top 10 where actually the one's that were first on my mind when I added them anyway haha, so I guess that does reflect them as being my favorite ones.
Atari 02.07.13	TLC - Crazy, Sexy, Cool will always rule hard
Trebor. 02.07.13	f searched Keasbey Nights, no results :(
YankeeDudel 02.07.13	not enough metal 3/5
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Really solid album Treb, nowhere near a 5 for me though man, sorry.
Cygnatti 02.07.13	doesn't need metal 3.1/5
Cygnatti 02.07.13	needs moar post punk
YankeeDudel 02.07.13	yea 90s post-punk was the best
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	I prefer the 80s post punk scene. Early 2000s wave of post-punk revival was where it was at too.
YankeeDudel 02.07.13	no dude the 90s were its peak
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	No way, late 70s to 80s was the scene's prime, hands down.
YankeeDudel 02.07.13	lol did the 80s have swans and nick cave? didnt think so 90s>
Cygnatti 02.07.13	yeah breaking's right, 70s to 80s post punx Swans' Filth was in 83 so there.
breakingthefragile 02.07.13	Three words. The. Fucking. Smiths. That is all.
SIMBOLIC 02.07.13	"Kill the thing" Fuckn lol
Cygnatti 02.08.13	Smiths aren't really post punk though.
breakingthefragile 02.08.13	Yeah, they have it in there though.
mindleviticus 02.08.13	there is so much good stuff here
breakingthefragile 02.08.13	True, but it does have a bunch of other stuff I'm fairly positive that you like a lot.
greg84 02.08.13	Ah of course Clutch. They were already churning out great records like crazy. Also, I second Jawbox and Helmet.
breakingthefragile 02.08.13	Dude wow, there's 84 at the end of your username, and you just made the 84th comment on this list.
greg84 02.08.13	... because I'm a genius. Won't change my name to greg86 anytime soon though.
greg84 02.08.13	you don't have to, many users are already converted
greg84 02.08.13	Ah, yes please convert us to liking Clutch sir. I'm gonna pretend I've never heard of these guys.
greg84 02.08.13	Aha. You want me to get Sputnik into Clutch (more). You sneaky bastard.
Emim 02.08.13	lack of faith no more is unforgivable "maybe i should get sputnik into clutch" ESCAPE FROM THE PRISON PLANET SOME TASTY PIECES OF ALIEN TECH-NOL-OGY
TheNexus100 02.08.13	not 1 slowcore album and only 1 90s shoegaze shit list
Sanders 02.08.13	Missing S Club 7
TheSupernatural 02.14.13	Pretty shitty list, so much pop and rap for someone who's listened to this much music. Sorry you digs these, especially Nevermind.
breakingthefragile 02.15.13	Sorry you don't dig these, it's your loss in my book man.
