    I knew six. Quite happy with that: it wasn't until the 2000s that I started listening to most of those albums

    Let's do our own! Can you name these 90's albums (although the first one is from 2001!)?

    Got 7. Owned the 7 I got. Didn't know the other 3 at all. Prodigy and rage were my favourite.

    Worth getting a copy of, Hope's voice is lovely on it and it's a wonderful album.
    Has this track on it which is just an absolute all time beauty

    Got all 10, advantage though of having 9 of them, only one i don't have is the Aphex Twin one but he's rather a distinct looking fellow.

    7 out of 10, not bad considering the 90s was not one of my fav decades for music.

    10, not that hard, only one (fairly educated) guess....

    Your results

    10 out of a possible 10

    Well done! You are more 90s than plaid shirts and hairbands. You must have got through the 90s with a CD tower full to the brim and a tape deck forever being jammed – you really know your stuff.

    Handy....

    Not bad, not bad. You're definitely in touch with the popular musical scene of the 90s, but some of the more obscure LPs threw you. You'd make the boyband, but you'd be the one in the background.

    Didn't know what the 2nd one was.

    Think that's Monster Magnet, Powertrip?

    No idea, going by the rest of your selections I'm going to guess some obscure Marilyn Manson release.

    Filth Pig/Ministry

    Tool - Undertow
    51GkgqCAs0L._SL500_AA300_.jpg
    Ministry Psalm 69 - although I never had this album, just a taped copy from a friend, but I still remember the cover.

    I guess Brit-Pop passed you by?
