Plus two in our 90s top 10 are in agreement. There might be three more if you knew music from Australia and New Zealand. :)

Outstanding nineties chart! I love OK Computer (doesn't everyone?), Grace, Nevermind, and I See a Darkness, among many of your other selections. Exile in Guyville is a pretty great #1 for the nineties, as it's a quintessentially nineties album that doesn't get nearly enough love from critics. Great work on this chart!

A quality and diverse chart with almost half of the albums in my chart too. Good to see you've covered all bases. Good chart.
