I could have put any of their four on the list... I still dont know which one is my favorite, I just went with their first one to make it easy on myself...
That's why I went with Wilco's AM. I could have put any of their relases pre-YHF.

yep, those were just the first ones that sort of popped in my head.

I thought about adding Southern Harmony but I guess I was thinking it wasn't typically considered alternative rock, even though I have Cash and some Alt country on my list. And the same with Phish - Billy Breathes.

Never the wrong answer. Maybe you think ska just sucks, but Johnny Quest thinks we're what?

No particular order
Blind Melon - Soup
Candlebox - s/t
Hum - Downward is Heavenward
The Offspring - Smash
Silverchair - Neon Ballroom
Butthole Surfers - Electriclarryland
The Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Pearl Jam - Vs
dredg - Leitmotif
Alice in Chains - Dirt
I don't think Jeff Buckley qualified as alternative

4 pages and no 40 oz to freedom by Sublime?
No other album in the 90s crossed more genres and blended more styles of music into a SoCal masterpiece.

It is a weird definition.
I saw a couple of people list Beastie Boys. That is a really trick one because they have songs that are clearly hip hop and also songs that are punk rock on Check Your Head . Confusing. Another one who falls into this category is Beck.
It be much easier to just list top 10 albums of the 90s regardless of genre.

That's a fair point
Alt rock is______ ?
I'm not really sure where the boundaries are so that why I posted smashing pumpkins, weezer, and tool...

What if we did a top albums of each year in the 90's?
"Albums of 1991 that we agree don't suck" type thing

I would still put 40 oz at the top of that list.

Agreed with the problem of defining boundaries...less than jake, samiam, kyuss, etc fall more into punk for me...
Which would produce an entirely different list.
Surprised something by morrissey hasn't made it on yet.
