What are the top five albums of the '90s?

In the past few days, I've given some long-overdue spins to what I believe is, in fact, the greatest album of the 1990s, and it got me thinking, "What are the top five albums of the '90s?" So now I'm going to undertake that feat and give you, dear reader, my picks. Please keep in mind that this is, of course, completely subjective to my own refined taste and whims. As well, I can revise my list any time I want if a forgotten selection is brought to my attention (potentially by you, dear reader).

So, who will make the cut? Much to the great chagrin of many of you (including Barrett), there won't be any U2 or Radiohead on the list. But who does that leave? Maybe the Spin Doctors (pictured), you say? Well, you just might be right. Check back again soon for the first selection...

Our Philosophy:

The music press, both mainstream and independent, focus the bulk of their attention on "new music" -- the latest albums and hot new artists. But what if "new music" meant something else? What if it referred to music that, regardless of when it was originally released -- this week or 50 years ago -- was just now being discovered by an individual, or perhaps by a generation? Any music could be "new." This Web publication charts our travels along the road of discovery as we become aware and gain a greater appreciation of some of the best music ever recorded from genres including rock 'n' roll, jazz, folk, soul, funk and, perhaps most importantly of all, the blues.
