Slipknot wasn't popular until the early 2000s and where's The Offspring's Smash? It was literally the best selling independent release at the time and constantly played on the radio throughout the '90s.
saw 85-92
>>131369882Massive Attack – MezzaninePrimal Scream – Screamadelica
hmm, they seem to have omitted ALL THE GOOD MUSIChow oddgentle joshing aside though, holy fuck what a load of bland boring shite
>>131369882Obviously.
Opeth - MorningriseFront Line Assembly - Millenium
>>131369882Yeah, they missed 30 albums.
In the Aeroplane Over the Sea moggs 3/4 of that list whether you only like it for the memes or not
Pic related solved heavy music, it should be in any top album list of the 90s.
>>131369882Dirt is fucking boring, why would that be #1? Most songs sound the same and shit
>>131369882>Rockist shit with some hip hop sprinkled inThey missed good music.
>>131371024the previous album is better
>>131369882welcome to sky valley by Kyuss>>131371024imagine RS rating an obscure experimental album made by some underground norwegian neo-nazi band
>>131371430Earlets mad
>>131371430first three songs are pretty good and it's all that matters I guess, the rest I agree it's kinda dull
>>131371803>rooster>down in a hole>sickman>angry chair>would>etcRetard alert
Solid lis actually
>>131369992>Slipknot wasn't popular until the early 2000sAnd?
>>131370085They got Nevermind and Slipknot on there though.
>>131371430It has Them Bones and picking Nevermind isn't hipster-cool enough. It is funny though how even Rolling Stones isn't contrarian enough to pretend Bleach and In Utero are high quality like neckbeards on this board do.
>>131371457Nobody likes country and pop and electronic music is obscure.
>>131369882Replace Oasis with Blur
What's with the NU METAL label?
>>131371975the nu prefix is derogatory and connotes deviations from metallic expectations deemed unacceptable such as the incorporation of rap and hip-hop elements as well as deemphasis of guitar virtuosity and its guitar solos
actual
>>131371995No on the image itself, knucklehead.
>>131369882Dirt is great of course but I dont think i'd put it as #1 overall
>>131371947>>131371457Rock critics could kind of tolerate rap, at least the more political rap, but what were you supposed to do with country, pop, EDM, and R&B?
>>131369882I don't know why people bother with shit like this; it's obvious they're just pandering to their audience.>hey people who like rock, did you know that all the greatest music is rock? yep you heard it here first haha here's the best music from the decade, conveniently all from the genre we're named after
>>131372365>but what were you supposed to do with country, pop, EDM, and R&B?At least be aware of it? You can't seriously make a list of the best music of a decade while limiting yourself to a single genre. As one of many examples, the '90s were peak Aphex Twin and he unironically had more lasting influence on modern music than anything listed in OP. It's wild that supposed music critics can put Radiohead at #2 and be this clueless about where it came from.>In 2013, the Radiohead singer, Thom Yorke, said Aphex Twin was his biggest influence: "He burns a heavy shadow ... Aphex opened up another world that didn't involve my fucking electric guitar ... I hated the Britpop thing and what was happening in America, but Aphex was totally beautiful, and he's kind of my age too."
>>131369882I guarantee you if you read contemporary RSM issues from the 90s they hated most of these albums. Don't even need to be told what they thought of Pantera.
>>131369882How is negro music on these lasts those are all trash
>>131369882The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is a glaring omission. Surprised RS didn't sneak a U2 album in there
Selected Ambient Works Volume II [Sire, 1994]"Veering between an eerie beauty and an almost nightmarish desolation," intoneth Frank Owen. "Imbuing machine music with spirituality," saith Simon Reynolds. And, most incredibly, "Always a groove going on," quoth J.D. Considine. I mean, what are these dudes talking about? Not that ambient-techno wunderkind Richard James is offensive--when I played all two-and-a-half hours of this at a quiet thermal spring in Puerto Rico, the worst any of the attendant pensioners could say about James's nightmarish desolation was "interesting." And smack dab against Eno's instrumental box--well, if James really gets "physically ill if [his] music sounds like anybody else's," that's one consumer object he'd best not sully his expanded consciousness with. Thing is, James is rarely as rich as good Eno, not to mention good Eno-Hassell or Eno-Budd. One piece here does the trick (no titles or track listings--too Western, y'know--but it is, how crass, the lead cut) by folding in a child's voice (or is that one of his electronic friends?). In general, however, these experiments are considerably thinner ("purer," Owen wishes) and more static ("pulse dreamily," Considine dreams) than the overpriced juvenilia on the import-only Volume I. Anyway, a lot of Eno's "ambient" music could also be described as bland wallpaper. When Kyle Gann or (please God) Tom Johnson pumps a minimalist, I wonder whether I'm missing something. Otherwise I believe my own ears--and pull out David Berhman's On the Other Ocean/Music From a Clearing when I need deep background. B-
>>131369882>all rock
>>131372453>cia monkey slopThat nappy headed aunt jemima hoe has no business being on this list
>>131372456It's true that Cuckgau did review a little of every genre instead of just a bunch of rock albums.
>>131372423>As one of many examples, the '90s were peak Aphex Twin and he unironically had more lasting influence on modern music than anything listed in OPi wish Alanis had less influence on modern music than she did
>>131372077>nothing but a bunch of EDMslop
>>131371901It says greatest albums of the '90s, anon. It obviously wasn't great in the '90s if no one was listening to it. The same goes for Deftones.

>>131372366RSM even downplayed Elvis and the Beatles' non-rock/R&B influences because they didn't deem them to be cool enough.

>>131372082Calling me knucklehead while you're asking a dumb ass question in the first place?
>>131372810
>>131372365the problem with electronic music is that the best genre was D&B but D&B was way better at producing exceptional tracks than exceptional albumsthe rest of those you listed were indeed trash genres better off disregarded
>>131372366>there's rap on there toomeds
>>131373461>the rest of those you listed were indeed trash genres better off disregardedif you mean country, R&B, and pop in the last 30 years then yes i agree
