93 would be 21 years ago, no? Otherwise In Utero & Come on Feel The Lemonheads would definitely make my list.

I kept trying to do this list & I can't really. I find it hard to rank newish (less than say 5 years old) up against something I've been listening to for a long time. I think logically you need to have a certain amount of years pass to know if something is really that great. I've done a 30, in no real order as I'm too pussy to rank Goat or Josh T. Pearson up against something I've been listening to & enjoying for a long time.

i've just realised i didn't even consider the coral- not sure how that happened

As time goes on I'm beginning to realise just how great their debut is. The mixture of different influences moulded effortlessly into perfect pop nuggets, it's pretty much a perfect record start to finish for me. I really liked it when it was released, but I thought most their early records were of similar quality, really good but not great, but as time has moved on its become clear how their debut dwarfs anything else they've ever attempted.

Jamie, get a rate your music account and you'll never forget a single album on these type of lists ever again!

I don't even know what that is! I feel like I'm missing something important now. Am currently in purgatory (sat outside dressing room in oxford circus h&m waiting for GF try on 73 items of clothing- none of which she'll buy), but will check it out when I get home

Do it

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is the shit, Rod you CUNT. Shouldn't have sent you that postcard.

You've pwned me Eddie.

This was clearly before I became a LAD

I miss Ana. She's just turned 39 according to her profile too, same as moi shortly. She's my lost love/soulmate I feel, in a parallel universe, where I was born in Colombia, and still have a thing for skinny goths into indie over metal. Stay cool Ana.
