Dude, you just copied Pitchfork's best of the 90's.

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/top/90s/

I know because I was looking at it to refresh my memory.

[istewart]

Lmao.

REM - Automatic For the People was my favourite. I happen to think it's the best album of all time.

Lots of other good ones too, most on Private Joker's list already.

I wish I was that hip. There are probably 15 crossover albums from my 100 on their top 100, but 15% is pretty small. Nice try.
