Best Rock Album - 1990?

[YellowSnow]

Rock pretty much goes off a cliff after 1996[/b]. So I'm starting to work backwards from 1990 now until these shit poles meet up with the ones from the 70's.

I was trying to figure out how to admit I was among those smitten with a certain Queen of Country Pop in 1997 since the rock didn't, uh, impress me much.
(counterpoint: that face/body, tho...)

PS - great job so far Yella; TYFYS

Agree

Huh?

Honky Tonk Hiccups is the greatest cuntry song of the past 30 years.

The only cure is a Hardcore Bored
I say
The only cure is a Hardcooooore Boooooored

NKBFAO?

I had to put in Thunderstruck as a Memorial for our beloved Pod’s worst thread ever @GrundleStiltzkin.

The 80's is no man's land for rock also.

Agree. The 80’s suck.

I’m sure GNR was awesome at the time. I used to like them myself. The music does not hold up tho.

Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss. Lombardo proves he’s the best metal drummer on the title track. Chinfuckingcredible drum fills

 

[Laocoön]

AIC - Facelift

Cliff Burton, of Metallica, says FUCK OFF.

Wiff a bullet

I saw them live at the Legends Club on Tacoma's Hilltop in January 1990. Just a couple months before Andrew Wood died.

Not rock but it is the best album of 1990.

Also, Bona Drag by Morrissey is pretty awesome.

I’ve always liked Metallica. They are much different than the 80’s hair band, which is all GNR is. The legend behind GNR is greater than their music.

I hate hair metal but GnR was is and always will be great IMO.

It all holds up for me.

Different strokes.

 

[RaceBannon]

I like Def Leppard and will fight anyone on it - not hair metal.

I like a lot of one hit wonder hair metal songs

Metal isn't hair metal by the way. There are multiple metals. Late 60's Black Sabbath. Second wave British invasion metal in the 80's. Speed metal. etc

Sorry, this white boy shit might as well be fine print as far as I'm concerned.

I just don't see it.

Read an interesting alternate rock history thing one tim where Dave Mustain wasn't a violent alcoholic freak and stayed in Metallica, and instead of Cliff getting killed in the bus crash it was Lars, and Lombardo came over to Metallica (they were very close evidently). Can you imagine, even for a second, a single band of:

Hetfield: Vocals and Rhythm
Mustaine: Lead
Burton: Bass
Lombardo: Drums

Um, jesus fucking christ, that is the best band ever at pretty much every position. Damn violent alcoholism and damn that bus for not pitching Lars out instead of Cliff. Fuck. Now I'm pissed.

Hefield isn't the GOAT at anything, but otherwise that's pretty fucking tits.
