Are they the two best albums from the nineties? Maybe 'Urban Hymns' and 'Definitely Maybe' can be included in there as well, but I've have just re-discovered The Bends and OK Computer in my collection and they are just fantastic!! 'Fake Plastic Trees' and 'Karma Police' are two of THE greatest songs I have ever heard!
Two of my favourites, Pulp "Different Class" and Crowded House "Together Alone" I still play both regularly because they both contain 100% great songs with no dodgy fill in tracks.
Leftism by Leftfield, Music for the Jilted Generation by the Prodigy, Exit Planet Dust by the Chemical Brothers all stand out for the Electronic community.
Everclear - So much for the afterglow. But i pefer Radioheads 1st album - much better than any of the others they done - Any one can play guitar - Oh yeah!!
radiohead defined the 90s for me and my whole existing lovelife of that era as it was brought to my attention by a man of course. eversince i listened non stop and went to concerts . radiohead give me memories. dya know when your listening to a tune and it rewinds your years to the exact place you were and what you were doing and who with. i thought i would love them forwever.after ok computer my whole music listening orgasms that radiohead gave me died a quick death.
+1 for jeff buckley's 'grace'. Also nirvana's nevermind & in utero albums. Primal screams 'screamadelica' and spiritualized's 'ladies and gentlemen...' are also great.
