Stone Roses, Beasties, New Order, and Mano Negra are all pretty excellent

Would've voted Cosmic Thing, though

not to say Cosmic Thing is a bad album but i can see it not making the Top 75 from 1989. though Acclaimed Music web site does mention it for that year, just doesn't rank it. was very surprised at the RYM ranking, however.

RYM is just a bunch of dudes that like white male rock music fyi

I mean, I am not surprised that Cosmic Thing is not as highly ranked as some Marillion album or some paisly underground thing.

The 26-50 picks are better than the 1-25

i played the shit out of my cassette of '3 feet high...' at the time but 'technique' is all time top 10 material for me so voted that.

Wow what a year! Josh Clover was right. Gotta go with Paul's Boutique, but there are maybe ten others that could take the crown. Please, no Disintegration though!

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

That looks pretty much how I expected.

No way is Doolittle better than On Fire (neither of which is my #1). I am surprised to see so much love for Pixies, whom I once loved and now like, but I have to say have not aged very well. Surprisingly. No longer sounds as weird and left field as it did. Whereas Paul's Boutique is still incredibly fresh.
Mad love for whoever voted for Jungle Brothers by the way.

biggest shock The Stone Roses only getting one vote?
― Bee OK, Tuesday, 28 August 2012 03:14 (eleven years ago) link
never really thought of the pixies as sounding weird. Always regarded and loved them for being poppy and catchy as fuck.
― pandemic, Tuesday, 28 August 2012 10:14 (eleven years ago) link
i voted de la though.
pump beat bleach... LAME
