What are YOUR favourite 10 albums from 1992?

It's still probably going to make my 1993 list.

 

Album of 1992 and easily one of my all time favs.

 

Melvins — Lysol
PJ Harvey — Dry
Kyuss — Blues for the Red Sun
Faith No More — Angel Dust
Sonic Youth — Dirty
Nine Inch Nails — Broken
RATM — RATM
GBV — Propeller
Tom Waits - Bone Machine
The Cure — Wish

 

That's cool! "Dawn Can't Decide" was always my fave from it, along with "Down About It."

 

Amazingly great album yeah? The video for "Everything's Ruined" is still one of my faves.

 

It would also be in my top 10 for the decade, too.

 

1. R.E.M. Automatic For The People
2. Cracker
3. The Church Priest = Aura
4. Peter Gabriel Us
5. James Seven
6. The Cure Wish
7. Ride Going Blank Again
8. Peter Murphy Holy Smoke
9. The Sundays Blind
10. Singles (Soundtrack)

I think...if I missed something I'll fix it.

 

Nothing on the telly? Any rubbish need taking out?

 

it's definitely going to make mine! Come On Feel was my gateway to The Lemonheads as an impressionable 19 year old, so will always be my favourite album of theirs, despite not being quite as strong as Ray, all things told

I'm delighted with the incredibly strong showing for Alice In Chains' Dirt on this thread, an album I had on constant rotation at the time.

 

Bizarrely, I've only just got it recently. Despite being a 90s guy, I never really had enough money to buy all the albums I wanted to back then. Sick Man is amazing.

 

And It's About Time, Big Gay Heart and I'll Do It Anyway. I like that album.

 

The 90s are not my favorite decade for music (far from it), and I struggled to cobble together this list. Some of these albums and artists, particularly in the second half, I was into (or kind of into) at the time but haven't wanted to listen to in many, many years.

1. XTC - Nonsuch
2. Lush - Spooky
3. High Llamas - Santa Barbara
4. Momus - The Ultraconformist
5.The Fall: Code Selfish
6. Magnetic Fields - Wayward Bus
7. Unrest - Imperial F.F.R.R.
8. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Henry's Dream
9. Morrissey - Your Arsenal
10. Stereolab - Peng

 

These are in order of, if I had to grab one to listen what would be first. A lot of great sound quality CDs in 1992.

Clang Pol Pot Pie (Who? What? - Great album)
XTC Nonsuch
Roger Waters Amused To Death
Nine Inch Nails Broken
Adrian Belew Inner Revolution (Great mix/Great master)
k. d. lang Ingenue (Great arrangement/Great mix/Great master)
Flotsam And Jetsam Cuatro
John Moran The Manson Family
Faith No More Angel Dust
David Baerwald Triage

So many great albums in 1992.

 

Sorry to nitpick but Smashing Pumpkins-Pisces Iscariot was released in 1994.

 

RATM - s/t
Clapton - unplugged
REM - Automatic for the People
Sonic Youth - Dirty
Peter Gabriel - Us
Dr Dre - Chronic
INXS - Welcome to wherever you are
Dream Theater - Images & Words

I bought a new 45 from The Wedding Present every month in 1992.

 

Nothing different from you though.

 

Phish, A Picture of Nectar
Dr. Dre, The Chronic
Alice in Chains, Dirt
Neil Young, Harvest Moon

Los Lobos, Kiko
XTC, Nonsuch
Rage Against the Machine, S/T
Joe Henderson, Lush Life: The Music of Billy Strayhorn
Mary J. Blige, What's the 411?

. . . not to mention the tons of great comps that came out that year, for some reason.
