1990. The year I was born. I have VERY little music from this year, and I would like more. Upload your favourite albums of this year! The 1983 thread was awesome, let's hope this one introduces myself and others to as many hidden gems.

Behaviour, Heaven or Las Vegas, and Violator were all released in 1990. So were Bossanova, Goo, and Nowhere.

Wasn't this some demos from 1983 or something?
I did an analysis a few years ago of how many albums I had from each year since 1965. If I remember correctly, 1990 came dead last.

I'm pretty sure that its a compilation of some sort. (fake edit: yes, it is a compilation of demos for Sound of Confusion)

93 had some fantastic albums. 36 Chambers, Midnight Marauders, In Utero, Siamese Dream, Exile in Guyville, Pablo Honey, Gentlemen, Transmissions from the Satellite Heart, Painful, Where You Been, Zooropa, Debut to name a few.

Add to this: Sebadoh - Bubble and Scrape, Built to Spill - Ultimate Alternative Wavers, Underworld - Dubnobasswitmyheadman, Slowdive - Souvlaki, Fugazi - In on the Killtaker, New Order - Republic, Superchunk - On the Mouth, and the best album of the year Eric's Trip - Love Tara, and you have a year with some fifteen albums better than 1990's best.

Gentlemen and 36 Chambers alone make 1993 better than 1990.

Here's a throw-away, one-hit-wonder with stupid lyrics from 1990 that I kinda like. I heard this a lot in 1990 and it stuck in my head. The single came out in the summer of 1990. No real idea what else this band did, if anything.
