I loved that mash-up album with Jay-Z...*shudder*

Essential 90's albums:

Illmatic
Metalheadz Platinum Breakz Vol 1
Endtroducing
Protection by Massive Attack
Leftism
Music For The Jilted Generation

I really wanna say Source Direct - Exorcise The Demons, but their singles were a lot stronger than their album.

[Jizz]

Hybrid Theory could have been an amazing album if it wasnt for the lyrics. Production on that shit was tight imo

edit: also around the fur and aenima as well on essential 90s, definitely if i was old enough back then

[Muncey]

Richard D. James Album

[kay]

KLF - The White Room
Linkin Park -Hybrid Theory
Muse - Origin of Symmetry
Madonna - Ray of Light (Frozen is definitely one ofy all time favourites)
Nirvana - Nevermind
Skunk Anansie - Stoosh (?)

That's all I can think of for now.

Edit:
TLC - crazysexycool

[particle-jim]

Muse - Origin of Symmetry

As an album 'Showbiz' shits all over 'Origin of Symmetry' from a great height tbh

*gets all nostalgic and dewy eyed about when Muse actually used to be quite good*

[flyingointment]

[gwa]

aim - cold water music


never left my music player since i got it. i presume it's 90s given ain't got time to waste was on te first tony hawk game

[overture]

A few off the top of my head...

Redman - Whut? Thee Album
Silverchair - Neon Ballroom
Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream
Eminem - SSLP & MMLP

[deadly_habit]

Without readinging and seeing Silverchair above me
311, Soundgrarden, Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Manson, Prick, God Lives Underwater, Sublime, Cypress Hill, Porno For Pyros, Deftones, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Pearl Jam, etc

I would've listed both but thought that might be OTT. Tbh, hullabaloo is probably better than both. Live show recording AND all the b-sides.

Hello nasty
ok computer
illmatic
enter the 36 chambers
tical
slim shady lp
doggystyle

[wolf89]

Harvey Milk - My love is higher than your assessment of what my love could be
Harvey Milk - Courtesy and goodwill towards Men
Slint - Spiderland
Faith No More - Angel Dust
Couple of Melvins ones
Burzum - Filosofem
Eyehategod - Take As Needed For Pain
Nas - Illmatic
Wu Tang - 36 Chambers
Jawbreaker - 24 Hour Revenge Therapy ‎
Cardiacs - Sing To God
Blink-182 ‎– Enema Of The State (Yes I am being serious)

Also that Pink Floyd album was wack

90's music is awesome.

Can't believe no-one's put this up yet. You all owned it, don't lie.

What's The Story Morning Glory - Oasis


If you didn't have that, you had this:

Blur - Parklife



This is an album from my youth that I used to listen to religiously. Back in the days when smackheads could sing!
Alice in Chains - Jar of Flies


Also classic 90's MTV fodder:

Pearl Jam - Ten


And I'll stick this in too - big up the grunge!

Nirvana - Unplugged




This just about makes it in, was released in 99! :O Seemed like everyone I knew owned this.

Dr. Dre - 2001

[Phatscout]

Nirvana - Nevermind (In Ureto was good but not as good IMO, though I can see why many like it better. Producion is way better on In Ureto though, but Bleach is just shite)
Beck - Mellow Gold + Odelay
N.W.A. - Straight Outta Compton
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP
Faith No More - The Real Thing (1989. If Bleach counts, this does too)
Beastie Boys - Check Your Head
Weezer - Pinkerton + The Blue Album
The Prodigy - The Fat of the Land
DJ Shadow - Endtroducing

90's had fuckin' awesome music.

Honary Mentions:
Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime (came out in '84 but it was sorta undiscovered until Nirvana and the like blew up)

[SCope13]

One of my favorite albums ever. Absolutely incredible.




Hybrid theory was released in 2000 by the way

[wolf89]

Fucking Linkin Park are shit anyway. People saying everyone secretly liked them are just lying to themselves to pretend that they weren't idiots.

Forgot to say that my post was leaving out what was already said as there are a few albums mentioned that I would count (though some that I think is over rated bollocks. Guess which ones)

You weren't 12 when they were big though.
