    As you said, I missed off:
    Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and Rage Against The Machine :doh:

    Other notable mentions:
    Grace - Jeff Buckley
    Ritual De Lo Habitual - Jane's Addiction
    The Bends - Radiohead
    Siamese Dream - Smashing Pumpkins



    You'll notice I left off Jagged Little Pill cos who the fuck but neurotic lesbians, New Age Men and Canadian (or all three), listen to that?

    There's a few albums listed by Magus which I actually prefer to Nevermind, but again, they lack the same cultural impact.

    To be brutally honest, the 90s were probably the great decade for 'rock' music when you see what we got after 1999:
    American Idiot - Green Day
    Kid A - Radiohead
    Toxicity - System Of A Down
    Elephant - The White Stripes
    Is This It - the Strokes
    Hybrid Theory - Linkin Park
    Songs For The Deaf - Queens Of The Stone Age
    Any generic Coldplay album
    Any generic U2 album

    Everything else from this shittier-than-shit decade was 50 Cent, Jay-Z, Eminem, Kanye West, etc, etc :shit: x 100

    Agreed. I think Songs For The Deaf is a very good album, Elephant and Kid A are ok, the rest is dire.

    I'll say this as well, in regards to the post-1999 era - and I know Hut always rips me for it, but "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" by the Arctic Monkeys is a really good album. Not an all-time great record or anything but still very good. "Favourite Worst Nightmare" is good too. Everything else, shit.

    I knew you would list them and that album and I think they are truly awful.
    Regional-sounding-indie-shit with a guy who looks 15, sounds mid-30s...only relevant in the UK.

    I might be overrating them because there literally is NOTHING else to compare them to from the same era, but I don't see what was so awful about the album? The riffs are pretty basic and simple but imaginative and catchy enough to keep your attention, whilst at the same time I don't think Alex Turner could have worded his observations any better than he did, he's a good lyricist. It all went downhill when he stopped doing the observational stuff and tried to be all "surreal" with his wordplay. Still, it is a strong album.

    then i think that MC Hammer's album had more of an impact by bringing hip hop/rap into the mainstream

    yeah, I can't be moved by the "cultural impact" argument because what culture are we talking about?

    Roll makes a good point... MC Hammer's silly dance rap sold a zillion copies...

    For further comparison...

    In the 1960s, The Monkees (a fake, created band that was made to water-down The Beatles and appeal to 12 year old girls) consistently outsold the legitimate artists (Beatles) they were doing a horrific imitation of... Monkees more culturally significant?

    you could say Green Day's Dookie had a bigger cultural impact by putting punk rock back into the mainstream

    yup but they somehow got labelled as punk by the mainstream, thus bringing it back into the mainstream

    even Nirvana somehow got labelled as punk somehow, Cobain described the band as punk all the time

    whaaaaaat

    Nirvana were more punk than Green Day. They weren't punk, but they certainly borrowed a lot from it and its ethics.

    Nevermind is far more culturally significant than Dookie, without question. Nevermind basically ushered in an era, you won't see something like that ever happen again.

    I do agree that Ice Ice Baby and U Can't Touch This made a huge impact on popular culture, but those are songs. Of course the albums would have sold in huge numbers on the back of the success of the singles, but nobody remembers the albums, they remember the songs.

    Nirvana basically took the alternative scene that was a huge part of youth culture for at least 10-12 years afterwards overground. They had an enormous cultural impact, for sure.

    well you hit the nail on the head with the vocalist... faux-emotive CUNT...

    furthermore, they CAN NOT PLAY and their songs are fucking HORRENDOUS... I've never heard a melody in their songs

    It's coldplay with more distortion... crescendos going nowhere played by ignorant twats

    Fucking Muse....another awful band that I despise.
    How they got to play at The Olympics closing ceremony is beyond me.

    Somebody tried to get me into them: "you'll love them - they're a Nu-Prog rock-band...they do cool songs called 'Knights Of Cydonia' and 'Supermassive Black Hole'.
    Me: "No, I can tell you now they're shit, have a terrible falsetto vocalist/cunt/poser-boy guitarist with a terrible sound"
