1991 -
Slint - Spider land
Talk Talk - Laughing Stock
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Nirvana - Nevermind
Pearl Jam - Ten
A Tribe called Quest - The Low End Theory
Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Metallica - Metallica
>1967 though
Three way tie between '67, '69 and '91.
Can't deny how much of an impact sgt peppers and velvet underground & nico had but I find myself returning to 1991 albums much more often. Especially with loveless and laughing stock
1999
>13
>Soft Bulletin
>Emergency and I
2010
>The Monitor
>Age of Adz
MBDTF
You didn't list a single good album
>Nirvana - Nevermind
>Pearl Jam - Ten
>Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik
You're not presenting your case very well. Those other albums are god tier though.
The chad 1997
>OK Computer

>Homogenic
>Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space

1997
>OK Computer
>FA∞
>Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space
>Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk
hey you had the same idea as me
Really a good season, but it's subjective. You should add the aphex twin album.
Not all of them can be god-tier but you can't deny that those have some fucking bangers on them
This, maybe good albums, but not revolutionary or best. Didn't know that mbdtf came out that year. Damn i'm old.
2010 was thirty years ago.
Selected Ambient Works 85-92 came out in 92
God tier list, one year before came out Aenima by tool, which may not be the best album but it cerrainly changed things.
Oh shit!
Fuck I'm missing the mark with the years. It's even in the name.
2007-9 the years for indie.
>implying the monitor isnt the logical conclusion to music
1977 was god tier
how has no one mentioned '77 yet?
...
You forgot The pipers at the gates of dawn.
looks like i shoulda refreshed before posting lol
2018
this and the new death grips album will make 2018 the best year in music in living memory
More like a comeback to good music. The Beach house's new album is sounding good.
respect piper at the gates, not god-tier like sgt peppers or velvet underground & nico though
>mentioning 1991
>forgetting Goat
Hopefully new Thom Yorke / AFP album will slap
and the new gorillaz project won't suck as much as humanz
don't forget about the new GRIMES ALBUM!@!!
7/10
1991 was a great year for music but this is a shit list
1966, 1991, and 2010 are the 3 best years in music.
Hopefully, too, the new Tool album will come out and it will live up to the hype. APC's Eat The Elephant is coming out too. This year is looking good.
Objectively wrong, will agree some albums aren't god-tier or anything but still influential to the time. But to say albums like loveless, laughing stalk, low end theory and spiderland are shit is incorrect
Why 2010? Not even the best year in this decade (2012)
>these albums are popular so i dont like them
i can agree with your second point though
>Implying that Nevermind by Nirvana wouldnt be one of your favorite albums if it wasnt so overrated.
i'm a 90s kid :^)
>Doesnt't even mention Screamadelica by Primal Scream
What a fucking pleb
1987
Sonic youth - sister
Big black - songs abt fucking
Dinosaur Jr - you're living all over me
