Famous for allegedly "bankrupting" its record label, this 1991 masterpiece was years in the making and went through numerous engineers and producers. Urban legends about the album driving Kevin Shields crazy are only a fraction of the story behind this great work, which to this day remains Shoegazing's magnum opus.

Always placed up high in best-of lists, there's a reason for it: Radiohead's 1997 album is their best work. As great as they are, they have never equalled it, never before or since, and its place in Rock history is cemented, both thematically and emotionally.

Jeff Mangum deserves recognition for achieving what he wanted to achieve and then walking away during his time in the sun. This 1998 album has endured and is now largely thought of as one of Indie music's greatest works.

Ride stormed onto the scene with this 1990 album with it's famous cover art featuring blue water with a single wave. In a way, the cover stands for the guitar reverberation apparent on the album which forms their core sound. "Paralysed", "Dreams Burn Down", and especially "Vapour Trail" are highly memorable songs.
