Oh, and I think I'm gonna have to use my Wild Card slot for Flipper's Generic Flipper (or it could replace something in Noise Rock.)

Also...

Jesus and the Mary Chain's Psychocandy needs to replace an album, either in Indie or Alternative Rock.

There are two Who albums in Hard Rock. Don't care which one gets the boot, but Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak or UFO's Lights Out would be good replacements.

And I'd think that Clutch's Blast Tyrant would be better for Stoner Rock.

I agree that Psychocandy should be here. If in alternative rock, it'll be hard to decide on an album it could replace.

8. Soundgarden - Superunknown
9. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
10. Muse - Origin of Symmetry
I've heard most of these. This is a damn good list. I suppose In Utero. I always felt it didn't reach the same alternative sound Nevermind had. It felt more like a Noise Rock album to me. Maybe not. But Californication should be replaced with Blood Sugar Sex Magic, which is better. If not, I can put up a funk rock or a rap rock list.

Funk Rock

1. RHCP - Blood Sugar Sex Magic
2. Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
3. Primus - Fizzle Fry
4. Prince - Sign O the Times
5. Beck - Midnight Vultures
6. Mr. Bungle -Mr. Bungle
7. Tim Buckley - Greetings from L.A.
8. Living Colour - Vivid
9. Eddie Hazel - Game, Dames and Guitar Thangs
10. Faith No More - The Real Thing

Also, about noise rock... WHY IS THERE NO SONIC YOUTH? I'm not a fan, but they are practically the definitive noise rock band based on what I've seen. I suggest Sister gets put in replacing another album. I don't care which one it replaces.

They're a pretty good noise rock band but I wouldn't call them definitive. I suppose they can replace White Suns (even though Totem beats Sonic Youth's whole discography).

One more thing. Would people agree Cure for Pain by Morphine is more worthy of the jazz-rock spot than Yes by Morphine?

Damnit, I thought I was done with this ****. Alrighty then.

1. Gentle Giant is on Symphonic Prog now in place of PoKR, and Leftoverture is still on Prog Rock.

2. Sorry, JGuy, but Pearl Jam is going on post-grunge in the place of Nickelback, and Dayglo is on grunge in its place.

3. Sonic Youth has managed to find its way into Experimental Rock and No Wave. I would oblige you, if not for the fact that the White Suns spot is just perfect for Psychocandy. Look at me finding all of these perfect solutions.

4. Tommy is off, Jailbreak is on.

5. Added Funk Rock, because why the hell not.

6. Yes. Ha. Cure for Pain is on in place of Yes.

Also, nice Marble Hornets reference Batty.

It's a Clutch album, so it should replace the Clutch album.

Wasn't Dayglo already there? I guess I don't have much of a though with it, even though I really don't Ten is post-grunge. But wouldn't Core fit that bill more?

What does it have to do with grunge, besides the fact that two of Pearl Jam's members happened to be in a grunge band a few years before?

Definitely, but I don't imagine that Tech is gonna boot Purple from post-grunge, so I've given up debating that issue.
