New WaveThe Auteurs

Rated 4/10

How to guarantee your spot on the 1001 albums list:
1) be from the UK
2) put out an album in the '90s.

All other locations and times will have to prove their worth to be selected. But this two-step recipe will guarantee you a spot.

This album is a small fish in an ocean full of small fish that are all exactly the same

One thing that I've learned from this project: although I really love drums and I really love bass, I can't stand the genre, drums n bass. Boring AF.

If you're ever in charge of making an ad for acne cream or cheap sneakers, consider some of these tracks. Otherwise, please don't consider this album at all.

BugDinosaur Jr.

Rated 8/10

Lou Barlow's vocals take Dino Jr from good to great. This lineup of the band is the only one I'm interested in listening to.

The ChronicDr. Dre

Rated 10/10

The first few years of the 90s was ridiculous for the quality and diversity of great music. And this album is right up there with the best of everything. Absolute bangers throughout. Dre's solo debut held nothing back and was a harbinger for what he continue to do for the next 30+ years.
