I love 90s music because that's when I grew up, but I won't list many albums because I wasn't very into albums then. They're all mainstream too, but hey, they were doing very, very good mainstream music.
U2 - Acthung Baby Oasis - What's The Story (Morning Glory) The Verve - Urban Hymns Radiohead - OK Computer Nirvana - Unplugged Massive Attack - Mezzanine Unkle - Psyence Fiction The Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation Alanis Morisette - Jagged Little Pill Depeche Mode - any album Rage Against The Machine - any album Smashing Pumpkins - Adore AIR - Moon Safari |
