You’re all mad, obviously cabin fever. Go and take yourselves for a walk around the house get some fresh air hopefully come to your senses. It has to be OK Computer.
Never mind.
Ok what about the 80s any suggestions. Think the 80s would be much more controversial.
True, but was working backwards. Trying to find the best album of the 70s might take a long while and upset a few.
Perhaps we should just stick to 90’s - before we know it we would just have (another) best album ever thread. By all means open an 80’s thread - I already have a shortlist ! ATB
arent we forgetting something…Primal Scream, Screamadelica
I’m happy to stick to the 90s, so we’ve agreed OK Computer wins hand down
Hahaha - nice try!
Agreed with Portishead, Dummy and Massive Attack, Mezzanine.
Then I also throw this in for its dense musical arrangements and whiskey, ambient, indy rock:
Agreed.
I always thought that ‘The Bends’ was a better album than ‘OK Computer’
Deep Purple – Perpendicular (Overlooked classic). First Purple album featuring Steve Morse.
This album just ticks every box for me. Definitely in my all time top 5.
Not convinced. I think you need to listen to another track.
Nice try!
Nevermind
August and Everything After
Automatic for the People
Out of Time
Slint - Spiderland !!
Inspired so many that followed.

Intelligent Dance Music was still in its infant years, then this came out expanding the melting pot with excellent production skills from ex Killing Joke Martin Glover.
Set the scene for many others.
This album blew me away when I heard it the first time. I still listen to it frequently, especially while driving. Perhaps the ultimate road trip album, for me at least.
