    By: Down Quark
    • 10. Crap by Most Bands of the 90's
      Wake up people! Listen to good music, real music, true music, ART. Stop listening to the crap that is sold and pushed on you so much. Make up your own mind.....
    • 9. Pearl Jam by VS
      Good songs.
    • 8. Incubus by SCIENCE
      Great album, I just hope they stick to their guns.
    • 7. Fugazi by Red Medicine
      These guys are goooooood.
    • 6. Radiohead by The Bends
      Great guitar work.
    • 5. Slip by Quicksand
      Great album that noone knows about.
    • 4. Opiate by Tool
      Short but sweet.
    • 3. OK Computer by Radiohead
      Another band that has taken a time machine back to this era and shone us a glimpse of human intellect evolution.
    • 2. Undertow by Tool
      Another journey that is far ahead of its time.
    • 1. Aenima by Tool
      The best album ever made. More than just music. It has Subtlety and intelligence that is missing from today's music.


    By: Steve Jones
    • 10. Yourself or Somebody like you by Matchbox 20
    • 9. U2 by Achtung Baby
      Their last great album.
    • 8. Ten by Pearl Jam
      I hear the members of Pearl Jam have a bet on a Police reunion.
    • 7. Sting by Ten Summoner's Tales
      His solo stuff is okay, but he's waaay better with The Police.
    • 6. O.K. Computer by RadioHead
      Pretty unique sound.
    • 5. Alice In Chains by Jar of Flies
      Stayley's vocals are amazing on this one.
    • 4. Perverse by Jesus Jones
      If you liked Doubt, go buy this one.
    • 3. Doubt by Jesus Jones
      Right Here Right Now. Great Tune, excellent album.
    • 2. Core by Stone Temple Pilots
      Plush is one of the best songs of all time. Sure Weiland sounds like Eddy Vedder but he does a better job on vocals. Plush is the best song Pearl Jam never recorded.
    • 1. Purple by Stone Temple Pilots
      Big Empty is incredible, Interstate Love song is fantastic.


    By: Clayshawn
    • 10. Dummy by Portishead
      Depressing music is hard to do well and still be musically interesting. This is perfect break up\unrequited love\crush music.
    • 9. Tigerlilly by Natalie Merchant
      Leaving your hugely successful group to go solo is always risky, but Natalie did it beautifully. This album never fails to make me cry- particularly "Beloved Wife" and "River" for River Phoenix.
    • 8. Green Day by Dookie
      The only rock band on my list- this album kicks ass! "Basket Case" and "Longview" are my favorite tracks.
    • 7. Alanis Morrisette by Jagged Little Pill
      Completely changed the perception\position of women in music for the decade. Every track is heartfelt and honest and this woman can sing like nobody else.
    • 6. Millenium by Backstreet Boys
      A little embarrasing, but who cares? They can sing like no other boy band and this album is so well put together. "I Want it That Way" is probably one of the best pop songs of all time and everyone knows the words (whether they admit it or not.)
    • 5. Erotica by Madonna
      Lyrically kind of thin (which is why "Ray of Light" is at the top), but the production of the songs- particularly "Erotica" and "Deeper and Deeper" is incredible. Definitely some of Madonna's best and most underrated work. I think the subject matter and the Sex book and the crappy Body of Evidence movie overshadowed this record.
    • 4. Garbage by Garbage
      I listen to this record at the gym every single day. There's not a bad track on it.
    • 3. Sheryl Crow by Sheryl Crow
      This album is Sheryl's best in my opinion- thought provoking, but with great pop tunes like "If it Makes You Happy" and "Everyday is a Winding Road."
    • 2. Debut by Bjork
      Bjork is a genius- we'll leave it at that.
    • 1. Ray of Light by Madonna
      Just when you think she can't possibly do it again she does- and even better- and with Grammys and critical acclaim! The title track is the bomb diggity, not to mention "Drowned World (Substitute for Love)"

    Honorable mentions go to kd Lang's "Drag", Nirvana's "Nevermind", and Madonna's "Bedtime Stories."

    • 10. In It for the Money by Supergrass
    • 9. Fountains of Wayne by Fountains of Wayne
    • 8. Stankonia by Outkast
    • 7. Blue Lines by Massive Attack
    • 6. Modern Life... by Blur
    • 5. Violator by Depeche Mode
    • 4. The Chronic by Dr. Dre
    • 3. Vitalogy by Pearl Jam
    • 2. Parklife by Blur
    • 1. Vs. by Pearl Jam


    By: Chris Anderson
    • 10. Stiff Upper Lip by AC/DC
      AC/DC kicks ass! They are the best! Need I say more?
    • 9. Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock
      Rap sucks, but when Kid Rock takes it into his hands and combines it with metal, it sounds awesome!)
    • 8. The Sickness by Disturbed
      Metal with a new face and superb vocal controls. They got talent.
    • 7. S&M by Metallica
      Metallica Rules! This album is completely original!
    • 6. Hellbilly Deluxe by Rob Zombie
      Rob Zombie is the the best metal perforer there is!
    • 5. Holy Wood (In The Shadow Of The Valley Of Death) by Marilyn Manson
      Gotta love the Fight Song and Disposable Teens!
    • 4. Reload by Metallica
      Fuel and Unforgiven II rule! Enough said!
    • 3. Load by Metallica
      Metallica hasn't gone soft, their doin' what they best--make music!
    • 2. Metallica by Metallica
      The mega headbang album of the decade!
    • 1. Garage Inc. by Metallica
      Metallica is the band that keeps on giving!

    None of this in specific order and I may skimmped on the best albums over a ten year period, but this is the best I can think of in ten minutes!
    By: Mike Rotch
    • 10. My Own Prison by Creed
      They didn't give into stereotypes.
    • 9. Ten by Pearl Jam
      A little different perspective on the whole grunge thing.
    • 8. Sublime by Sublime
      I can't make it through a day without hearing Wrong Way, What I got and Santeria.
    • 7. The Black Album by Metallica
      Not their best, but their best in the 90's
    • 6. Green Day by Dookie
      Even if you don't like anything else, Longview is the perfect slacker song, and if you were the right age, the first dirty song you listened to.
    • 5. Dr. Dre by The Chronic
      Where would rap be without this
    • 4. Smash by The Offspring
      Self-Esteem, Bad Habit, Come out and play, what else do you want?
    • 3. Rage Against the Machine by Rage Against the Machine
      Without it, there would be no Korn, Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, and so on.
    • 2. Blood Sugar Sex Majik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
      Just the perfect mix of all elements of 90's music.
    • 1. Nevermind by Nirvana
      Can't be argued against
