Top 44 Music Albums of 1994 by mrmcrook

Not too great a year for music. Top third are fantastic albums. The rest are good but fall into the 'also ran' category.
Compilations, greatest hits, soundtracks etc have been ranked after studio albums. It's only fair on a year list

My top 10 favorite songs from 1994
1. Muttonbirds -Anchor Me
2. Nirvana - Where Did You Sleep Last Night
3. Nick Cave - Do You Love Me?
4. Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun
5. Live - Lightning Crashes
6. Blur - Parklife
7. Sinead O'Connor - John, I Love You
8. Bush - Glycerine
9. Nick Cave - Red Right Hand
10. Nirvana - Lake of Fire

87.50 This just kicks arse. It was about the 7th album from him I got and went to personal favorite of all studio albums from him I've heard. Yet to hear a Nick Cave & Bad Seeds album I didn't like. Brilliant. Just fucking brilliant. [First added to this chart: 03/17/2022]

87.50 My 2nd fave from them & I rate this higher than Nevermind in the Nirvana catalog. Stripped back and how a smaller concert should be. The covers are what makes this. One of the better all time live albums [First added to this chart: 10/14/2020]

84.64 Stacked with great tracks. Almost no filler. A massive career highlight. No other album they've made comes anywhere close to the caliber of this. The only album from them worth having. 03/25 [First added to this chart: 10/14/2020]

83.50* The song Parklife was the first ever Blur song I heard. It's a fucking fantastic song. 20 odd years ago I got a Blur Greatest Hits CD. Fucking great CD. So I went to check out studio albums. The one I got was '13'. Didn't like it at all. In fact I thought it was quite shit. So it put me off a bit. Then when in Penny Lane scoping the racks, they had this album playing in full. It resonated well and was basically what I would have been expecting from a Blur album. So now I have it. Hooray. 05/25 [First added to this chart: 01/29/2025]

83.00 This is an album I am massively conflicted over. It's got a darkness to it. It's has deep tones. Like a grunge Sabbath. But for some reason it's like I try to talk myself into not liking it. But after a couple of songs you can't help but see the caliber of superb song writing and structure throughout, and then you cannot not like it. My main gripe would be way to long for the style and tonality. 05/24 [First added to this chart: 10/14/2020]

82.69 Not as epic as their debut but still great. Great vocals, great lyrics, great catchy tunes. Resonates with me greatly. The cover of Blam Blam Blam's 'Don't fight it Marsha' was a superb final track. Great 01/25 [First added to this chart: 10/31/2024]

82.08 This is the epitome of the mid 90's post grunge sound. Even though this was commercially pushed, it's a fucking great album. The singles are all top notch, but the tracks which make up the brunt of it are just as good, hence making it one of the better post grunge rock albums. 11/24 [First added to this chart: 05/22/2024]

Not an avid fan of the whole pop-punk genre. But this album deserves it's credit. Most pop-punk bands can maybe manage one or two decent songs in there whole career. Green Day in this put out a whole album of great tracks. And got stronger as they progressed. Double thumbs up to them. [First added to this chart: 10/14/2020]

79.09 The best they've done. It has a droning feel to start off with but then it does quickly draw you in and gets better. You can't stay disheartened by it. One of the preferred of the grunge era albums. 'Pretty Penny' is the highlight. 11/24 [First added to this chart: 10/14/2020]
