07.27.17 | will add 25 more after a cigarette.. |
danielcardoso
07.27.17 | This could only be a Butch list! |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | This is great but mild disappointment there aren't a few more unexpected choices (think more of those will come next in the 90s). Pretty much agree with every entry that I've listened to myself (prob 80%+ of the list). Will check that Screaming Trees, the Butthole Surfers and will revisit 'Frank's Wild Years' which seems to be one of your absolute favorites and I may have underestimated. |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | This outta be good... |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | Why is 1977 not Blank Generation? |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | You had my curiosity sir. Now you have my attention. |
DoofusWainwright

rabidfish

DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Unique you make these list posts in a thread quicker than anyone lol - do you dictate them or something? |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | No, but half of these come up pretty much nonstop in convos with butcher, the others just need a quick looksie into his ratings...
also, I'm Dr. Manhattan (well, more like Dr. Swan River actually) |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | first two misses |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | 94 is the GOAT year so looking gorward to see if I've missed anything from that year |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | shit, I am missing a bunch of great ones.. Modern Lovers, and I can't believe I forgot Blank generation, will be fixed momentarily.. |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Sunhouse better be there for '98 - if you haven't spun it yet Butcher there's still time, There's. Still. Time.
Zak will never speak to you again if you don't include it. |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | Holy shit Uni lol |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Thought Doc Corbin might have gatecrashed 1990 ;D |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | I mean, personally I'd prefer Marquee Moon over Blank Generation...so I could have not told you that it was missing and hope that the lesser of two nasties remains on the piedestal... |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | as he should! fuck, making these lists without a week of research means glaring omissions.. that's why you guys are here.. |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | Well, it's not like you're in NME, omissions are pardoned...but you're also not in Pitchfork, so don't make omission your main gimmick. |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | So far '72, '80, '85 and '93 are the same for my number one albums - also pleased you like '90 so much, wasn't sure you'd be a Jane's fan |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | I am not a big fan of Jane's but that album is basically perfect. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | man, I'm missing Buzzcocks and Magazine and a whole bunch of other good punk shite.. damn!
and Jane's Addiction were fucking phenomenal.. for a short short stretch |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Nice '94...never listened to the Superchunk, and I don't know the Frank Black or the Helmet album that well. I have a similar list to this in RYM I try to keep up to date and '94 is closing in on 50 entries already, such a great year. I'll do a top 100 of '94 here sometime with descriptions. |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | Digable Planets. Blimey now there's a name I haven't heard since '94
Cool list. |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | Teenager of the Year is brilliant doof. Used to be a fave of mine. |
Winesburgohio
07.27.17 | list is gay (great and yummy) but of ALL the choices for 1991 lad |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Zak that's one of those albums that's been on my list to give a go for what seems like twenty years...actually it probably is over twenty years :D |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | I remember listening to it when Euro '96 was on. lol. |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | Helmet - Betty... Oooh you are activating memory cells long gone in my head butch |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | I was still going through a Kerrang! patch in '96 - bit like the kid who doesn't realise he's too old for his teddy bear yet.
Spent most of my time listening to Tool, like most users here actually. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | this list is starting to piss me off.. hahaha, I've got a lingering feeling that I'm always missing something.. |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | Was Aenima 96? |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Garbage in there - biggest surprise so far
'96 is quite a bit weaker than the three years before it...no 'Endtroducing'? Lambchop 'How I Quit Smoking' is my favourite from that year. |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | one bullseye |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | I never got into DJ Shadow.. I think i need to think harder on 98 |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | Dewinged, Aenima was 96, so it qualifies for the list. Unfortunately for Aenima, it was also by Tool, so it doesn't qualify for the 'best of'. |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | No Homogenic on top spot for 97?? We are done Butch. You and I. The old factory. At dawn. |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | You homogenic tool! |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | Nothing beats ladies and gents. '97 was a one off. I might do a list. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | Dewi, bjork is such an artsy artist, so even though I love some of her stuff, she also pisses me off as an entity.. that Spiritualized record means the world to me, so it gets the spot even though it rightfully belongs to OKC |
Dewinged
07.27.17 | But hey at dawn is alright? I can do afternoon too. I'll be sure to check that Spiritualized album. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | I'm adding to previous entries as I go.. and I changed up AOTY for 1974 |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | 2/7 correct |
rabidfish
07.27.17 | no red apple falls for 97? not even a mention? |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | Air - Moon Safari and Sunhouse obvs for '98. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | oh shit, zaka!! so you're right.. |
theBoneyKing
07.27.17 | "Radiohead - OK Computer (Sput will murder me)"
Well if you're going to put anything above OKC for 97 Ladies and Gents is pretty much the only acceptable choice so you're good with me |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Butcher - feelings on Palace Music 'lost blues'? Up there with 'I See a Darkness' for me |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | I can't find it as a download anywhere to actually listen to it in full.. |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | 3/9 |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | 2001 is great, Sparklehorse 'wonderful life', Fennesz 'endless summer', Unwound 'leaves turn', Destroyer 'street hawk', Cannibal Ox 'Cold Vein', Skitz 'countryman' - all would be up there |
theBoneyKing
07.27.17 | Digging the Wilco and PJ Harvey love butch! |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | Lost Blues is worth picking up a copy if you rate Darkness that highly |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | sparklehorse!!!! yes.. I'll be checking the other ones.. except unwound, I think that album would be a 5/5 if it wasn't so overlong..
4, Unique |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | 4/11 |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | I am now officially more accurate than Deathlist.net |
TwigTW
07.27.17 | Excellent list for so many reasons, but especially for Black Love @ '96. :) |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | This outta be a feature at least because of all the copycats it spawned. That's influence, kids! That's respect! |
GhandhiLion
07.27.17 | Excellent choices |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | Unique, ask for one, I can't access Community off my work comp..
cheers, guys!! |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | Wait, you gotta do it throught Community? |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | I think.. the meds thread |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | If it is the case, then I've been sucking wrong dicks all this time... |
Conmaniac
07.27.17 | butcher can you not get into the contrib forum thread? if not I can ask in there for ya

Papa Universe

cheers, Ry.. will check yours in a sec |
zakalwe
07.27.17 | 2000-2010. The desolate years. |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | My list is here:
https://rateyourmusic.com/list/DoofusWainwright/albums-of-the-year-1963-2017-with-runners-up/
Was going to copy it across in a year or so when it feels a bit more complete, I have huge gaps, esp the 60s. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | zaka, yea, there's a noticeable dip in quality, but I was also looking up less new music those years.. pretty much retreated to the past for a while..
will check and cross-reference once I'm done with this beast, Doof.. cheers |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | This site is sadly rubbish for maintaining lists |
Papa Universe
07.27.17 | 5/18 |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | He's put 'infected', 'is a woman' and 'kaputt' up - butcher can do no wrong |
DoofusWainwright
07.27.17 | The Tiger Lillies and 'trouble will find me' are up there too, list = ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ |

Papa Universe

Boney, this is late, but I've always got love for Polly Jean
Doof, glad you like! |
Conmaniac

butcherboy
07.27.17 | cheers, guys |
LeftyMcRighty
07.27.17 | phenomenal list, butcher. I'm incapable of saying any one album is "the one" for any year but I love 8, 13, 23, 27, 33 and 37 as years. Great fucking albums in there. |
butcherboy
07.27.17 | thanks very much, Lefty.. I'm sure I left out a pile of amazingness |
butcherboy
07.28.17 | because I spell honour with a U, right? Nah, raised in Russia, live in the states..just learned the British spelling way back home.. |
butcherboy
07.28.17 | Oh no! have I got Limey music taste?! |
klap
07.28.17 | you & me nice |
butcherboy
07.28.17 | could never get into tool, Aiwaz.. |
butcherboy
07.29.17 | fuck!! that stuff is debilitating.. I'm sorry, dude.. sit on it a day, and write it up again.. starting it over right away feels like a Sisyphus toil.. |
butcherboy
07.29.17 | I can't wait to check it out.. |
