Live Through This was an essential album in the mid 90s — first of all, it was everywhere, it was the soundtrack of everything. Second, Cobain wrote most of it so that’s why it’s good.

ALSO – big omission – Leonard Cohen’s The Future

@ Qwertie:

I can’t believe nobody’s seconded Talk Talk. I’m ashamed of myself for not throwing them in the mix.

I’m also having a hard time believing I’m the only one in favor of Neutral Milk’s record. For being an example of a perfect record, song-for-song…
