Where many things began and many end. This record is a new chapter in the life of everyone that got it. A masterpiece of sound, a slacker's goldmine. This reinvention of pop takes contemporary art more seriously than the sound of the band itself. [First added to this chart: 08/14/2016]

All these serial killer trap vibes point to the same direction. But this is still unmatched. Also has various old time religion vibes. Real killer. [First added to this chart: 03/01/2018]

I forgot all about that Jim O'Rourke album. I used to love that. Also Ken Ishii.

I love that the second artist you mention as being central to the zeitgeist of the nineties (Burzum) is a band I've never heard of. I think that's revealing of how much there is to discover in the nineties--the richness of creativity that defines the decade. At the same time, there's a lot of crossover in our respective takes on the nineties, particularly OK Computer (I know everyone loves that album, but it's for good reason), In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, Nevermind, I See a Darkness, and a number of your other selections. A great chart both to appreciate and to use for further discovery. Thanks!
