1. Saves the Day - Through Being Cool
2. Incubus - Make Yourself
3. O.A.R - souls aflame
4. RHCP - Californication

 

Clarity for ‘99 was always a foregone conclusion. JEW probably also win ‘01 and ‘04.

 

that’s wild!

especially 2001 with all the garage rock revival albums of that year

 

I'll have listened to Sigur Ros' Ágætis Byrjun hundreds and hundreds of times, but have absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to be pronouncing it. Age-it-is Burn-yun is usually how it settles in my head, but I imagine any Icelandic speaker would cringe at the sound of that.

Probably the best album with a title I'm unable to say.

 

Could have gone through 1000 possible pronunciations in my head before reading Ágætis as "OW-guy-tis"!

 

I don’t get the sense that, like, Is This It has a super big contingent of die-bards on this website.

 

I knew I'd forgotten an old favourite. Emotion Sickness is an unbelievable opener.

 

no, i totally agree. bleed american is much much bigger on this site. it’s just still kinda wild to me. i can’t think of any other big site/platform where that would be true.

 

Easy #1 for me here, lots of other solid stuff this year as well

19. Fiona Apple - When the Pawn Hits the Conflicts He Thinks Like a King What He Knows Throws the Blows When He Goes to the Fight and He'll Win the Whole Thing When He Enters the Ring There's No Body to Batter When Your Mind Is Your Might So When You Go Solo, You Hold Your Own Hand and Remember That Depth Is the Greatest of Heights and If You Know Where You Stand, Then You Know Where to Land and If You Fall It Won't Matter, Cuz You'll Know That You're Right
20. The Dismemberment Plan - Emergency & I

 

honestly shocked that 3eb's self titled almost beat Radiohead, but Blue isn't showing up in many lists. It's their best album if you ask me

 

hell of a mix for 99!!

 

out of the vein is their best imo

 

OOTV was my favorite for a long, long time. And it's extremely underrated. But in my older age, I'm now back at Blue being #1 and OOTV #2 just slightly. I honestly hate the fucking Kimya Dawson song

no interest in built to spill? or is it somewhere between “good” and “not a fan”

 

Bah how did I forget this one!

 

Check the edit. I always put my list together and then check the posts in the thread to see what I missed.

Also, I like that your typo makes it seem like you found Fiona Apple's great lost shrimp album

 

leaving it, too good

 

Man @cshadows2887 loves Ben Harper

 

Me too, he's awesome

 

i like the one song he does with pearl jam

edit: i guess it’s just live, not on the album. “indifference” off of Vs.
