This is the Built To Spill album I always come back to. I am slowly realizing that is definitely one of the best of the 90s.

I think that a couple of their albums could be considered essential indie albums.

Built To Spill- Keep It Like A Secret
The Pixies- Doolittle
Slint- Spiderland
Neutral Milk Hotel- On Avery Island
Dinosaur Jr- Bug

Sorry, I don't listen to a whole lot of Indie Rock so I'm not sure if all of these fit into the category but these are some albums that I enjoy.
