Best year for music

idontknowmyname

What year does everyone think was the best for producing music?

I think 1995- god it makes me feel old- ten years ago :eek: , still hard to believe.

My reason for 1995 is:

Mellon Collie by the Smashing Pumpkins was released
As was Tragic Kingdom by No Doubt
We also got the debuts from Alanis Morissette and Garbage.

I reckon i was a pretty good year for my favourite bands.

Music is timeless, I tend not to think of it in terms of years.

idontknowmyname

yeah but what year were your favourite albums released?

MrJoeSoap

Jeff Buckley - Grace (1994)
Muse - Origin of Symmetry (2001)
Berkeley - Hopes, Prayers and Bubblegum (2003)

PS - I had to look the release year for each of those up, because I generally dont associate my music with a 'year', and I would assume very few people do.

its impossible to pick a year tbh,
im fond of the early to mid 90's though, that was a great time.

Karl Hungus

Jesus... God knows. It's all good!

Gothic Warrior

1992.

Blisterman

I think 1970-1989 were the best years in music. The worst were 1994-2001 or so.

yeah i know it wasn't Alanis's debut, her other 2 albums were pop, but it was her first album that saw her career took off, thats what i kinda meant. Same goes for No Doubt, they had 2 albums before Tragic Kingdom

S.O.D-Speak English or Die, Exodus-Bonded By Blood Released 2 classic albums

The BNR Top Ten list makes for good reading on this matter

1989 - 1990 was an incredible couple of years for extreme metal. Debuts from Morbid Angel, Obituary, Entombed, Autopsy, Paradise Lost and Darkthrone - all still classic albums! Spiritual Healing from Death and Harmony Corruption from Napalm Death; two excellent releases IMHO. And Judas Priest stunning everyone with Painkiller. Great times.....
