This is a pretty diverse mix of things, lots of indie things but that's a wide term, and niche's from canadian post-rock to idiosyncratic electronic to folkier rock and all sorts of others are represented here. It would be cool to see some words on certain picks, like Miranda Lambert, I'm unfamiliar with the album but still quite interesting to see so high on here. Have you heard either Thee Oh Sees - Sucks Blood or Brad Laner - Neighbor Singing? I think you might enjoy them.
Moby at number 1 is an interesting choice. Do you have any recollection of around this time when it came out, and how it had every single song on the album licensed out to some company or another for a different commercial, seemingly. I think that may have broken the album for me and I can't have anything near objectivity on it, but it's still nice to see it land high on one of these. And as always, the chart communicates a distinct personality with the "low-brow" mixed in with establishment favorites, but ordered with a sincere point of view. Good stuff. Though I do think you could use a bit more weirdness on here, have you heard Solid Eye - Fruits of Automation?
Looked at Mercury's 1990s chart and I liked. Left the comment:

Fantastic chart filled with many wonderful finds! Even has lots of oldies music with the compilations. Impressed with The Caution Horses and Chill Out by The KLF as they are both lovely albums. I think Automatic for The People is my favorite here though.
I'll try write larger comments as things go forward. As for album suggestion, I'll give Surfing On Sine Waves by Polygon Window. Only because it is one of the best 90s finds I have to give.
This is a really great list for a really great year, but I'm curious what caused the drop in your esteem of Voodoo. I don't care for it as much as Black Messiah or Brown Sugar myself anymore, so maybe you're the same way.

For new applerill on the 90s chart:

Lots and lots of albums I have heard here! I think lots would go on my own 90s chart. Oval and No Doubt perhaps. Even has the Donkey Kong Country 2 Soundtrack which might have when very young. The spooky land had great music in that game. Charts also albums like Ten and Nevermind right beside albums you may not find on another 90s chart. I think this chart was made very well!
For album... I don't know... listen to Super Castlevania 4 sound track as there is already snes soundtracks on the chart.
