Top 100 Albums of the 1990s


© Nick Bendel

An Australian music magazine named Juice recently released an article which listed the top 100 albums of the 1990s. Despite the fact that there are still about 8 months to go it was obviously decided that if there were any good records in the 1990s then they had already been made.

It should be noted that as this is an Australian list it is obviously biased in that direction. That's why 15 places are devoted to Australian artists.

Those albums which have been highlighted have been covered in Pop/Rock Reviews. If only the band name is highlighted then that means that the band, but not the particular album, has been reviewed.
