92. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus (2004)
I can`t believe how awesome this record is. And it`s just so big sounding. It`s the kind of album i`ve been waiting for Nick Cave to come out with ever since I first heard him in 1994, before i`d always thought he was good but there was just something that stopped him coming out with a truly great album .Anyway he`s done it & this is an epic work of genius.
Favourite Songs - Get Ready for Love , Cannibal's Hymn , There She Goes My Beautiful World
91. Echo And The Bunnymen - Ocean Rain (1984)
The Bunnymen`s influence on modern American indie is ****ing huge yet for some reason I don`t think they get anywhere near the credit they deserve. You ask any current Indie darlings of the press who`ve not ripped off the entire Gang Of Four back catalogue who they were inspired by & you can bet they`ll say the Bunnymen.Anyway this album was them at their peak. Their next album was their biggest selling but it`s a pale imitation of this one.
Favourite songs - The Killing Moon , Silver , Seven Seas
90. The Cramps - Off The Bone (1983)
OK I cheated , this is a singles compilation. But then i`ve never really been a big fan of theirs.I just like this because it`s a nice little package of their best stuff so you really don`t need to bother with the rest.And I think they did the whole 1950s B movie thing much much better than the Misfits ever did.
Favourite songs - Human Fly , Garbageman , Drug Train
89. Nirvana - Nevermind (1991)
I really don`t need to say anything about this do I ?
