MB's greatest common factor (single, albums, Radiohead, Nirvana, quote)

I'm not sure you're gonna be able to find that one. I would have agreed with Nevermind, but I guess that one doesn't fly either.

nevermind is probably a safe bet, but since most folks are 15 here it may not fly.

But some of these suggestions alert me to the fact that there are a few members who are far too insular. If some of these suggested albums are supposed to be the common link, you need to read the question again.

What does age have to do with not liking a watered down garbage album?

edit:
and what album posted in this thread isn't popular?

Nirvana'a "Nevermind" has got to be the greatest common factor. I can't think of any other album more people would have in common.

My thoughts on options

Radiohead-Ok Computer
Pixies-Doo Little
Pavement-Crooked Rain
Sonic Youth-Day Dream Nation
Built to Spill-Perfect From Now On
The Shins-Oh, Inverted World
Neutral Milk-In An AEroplane of over the sea
Belle & Sebastian-If You're Feeling Sinister

apparently I'm an indie hipster?

I think the definition of watered down garbage is open to debate.
I'm pretty sure you can agree that the albums you listed are not a common link on this board.

sleepy jack · 02-03-2008, 08:57 PM

With the exception of Built to Spill I'd say those are all pretty safe guesses.

I was making suggestions for people to comment on. A lot of people here like those albums. I don't think this is a board where most people turn on the radio so I don't think this certain album has to be chart topper. Nevermind is a watered down album compared to their previous output.

I am pretty sure everyone in the world as at least one Rod Stewart Christmas Album ….I mean nothing says Christmas more then Rod Stewart Rocking to the classics.

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with your examples, other than that they are not common links. I don't own a single one, nor have I even heard them. I still don't think there is even a remote chance of a common link album.

You've never listened to OK Computer???
