I have registered on this site simply to add “Loveless” by My Bloody Valentine to the 1991 list.

For your further consideration:
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers – Into the Great Wide Open – 1991
NWA – Niggaz4life – 1991
Michael Jackson – Dangerous – 1991
REM – Out of Time – 1991
U2 – Actung Baby – 1991
Bone Thugs ‘n Harmony – Creepin on ah come up – 1994

I stand corrected. Though I’d add Offspring “Smash” to that damn fine list. And don’t worry, it’s only a matter of years before you’re a full time writer for ruralminority.

Not a chance? Bite your tongue. 1994 deserves consideration based on these three alone:

NIN “The Downward Spiral”
Jeff Buckley “Grace”
Soundgarden “Superunknown”

I could stop there but you know I fuckin’ won’t:

Pearl Jam “Vitology”
Tom Petty “Wild Flowers”
R.E.M. “Monster”
Stone Temple Pilots “Purple”
Weezer “Blue Album”
Green Day “Dookie”
Live “Throwing Copper”
Beck “Mellow Gold”
Beastie Boys “Ill Communication”
Nirvana “Unplugged in NY”
Portishead “Dummy”
Bush “Sixteen Stone”
Oasis “Definitely Maybe”
Snoop “Doggy Style”
DMB “Under the Table and Dreaming”

This is an awesome question. I haven’t had this much fun at work in months. I should be fired.

In our lifetime? Not a chance. 1991 was our 1967, when these babies dropped:

“Sgt Peppers”
“The Doors”
“Are You Experienced”
“The Greatful Dead”
“Piper at the Gates of Dawn”
“Between the Buttons”
