as evidenced by some other rankings, there could be a surprise. After all, is Erotica makes the cut, who would have thought it would outrank Ray of Light?

Fiona Apple put all of her 90s record inside of the top 100 and after seeing Is This Desire, Dig Me Out and Dilate, you know this is not going to be your average 90s list.

Viguen, Beck has four albums on the list, the most- so Blur can't have more than three.

I like the inclusion of Annie Lennox's Diva, which is kinda underrated IMO.

Wow at Erotica's high placement. Ouutside of a coupl;e gay-themed labums lists and Q citing it as one of 10 "Flawed Classics," this is its only all-time list appearance among AM-eligible features/lists.

40. Pavement, Slanted and Enchanted
39. De La Soul, De La Soul Is Dead
38. Hole, Live Through This
37. Depeche Mode, Violator
36. Erykah Badu, Baduizm
35. Weezer, Weezer
34. Primal Scream, Screamadelica
33. Dr. Dre, The Chronic
32. The Roots, Things Fall Apart
31. OutKast, Aquemini
30. Moby, Play
29. Björk, Debut
28. Madonna, Erotica
27. Smashing Pumpkins, Siamese Dream
26. The Chemical Brothers, Dig Your Own Hole
25. PJ Harvey, Rid of Me
24. Lauryn Hill, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
23. The Notorious B.I.G., Ready to Die
22. Liz Phair, Exile in Guyville
21. Radiohead, The Bends

Mariah Carey's and Sheryl Crow's chances were killed after they didn't make the top 75. I hope Harvey's To Bring You My Love make the list, it's being totally forgotten by music critics alike who are placing Rid of Me inside the lists instead. Bjork might have the #2 and #1 of the list, since the artist who has the former, topped it 2 years later. This list is totally not as rock influenced as other lists, so i'm not betting on seeing a lot of underrated alternative rock albums, only sure shots like Nirvana's Nevermind and In Utero, Radiohead's OK Computer, My Bloody Valentine's Loveless and R.E.M.'s Automatic. It's still a big question if Pearl Jam, Alanis Morissette and Oasis will make this list. I guess Dummy will possibly reach the top 10.

Nice to see Biggie so high. Too bad Green Day didn't make it.

Hooray for Diva, Erotica and Deee-Lite!

How heinously excessive. Bjork at #1 and #2? I like Bjork, but NO artist has ever produced the top 2 albums of a decade. That's ridiculous.

Bjork? 1 AND 2? Come. she really shouldn't have either of those spots, let alone both.
But, In Utero was #12, so

Hush...

Björk is every bit as good as Radiohead, but she doesn't get the love they get because she's a girl.

awaiting best of the 80s lists, Slant says possibly next year. :)
