Re: Most influential in 20 years
Yeah, that's what the website says.
I never like those official "best of ever" lists, but I'm impressed with this one. Mostly because PJ Harvey's "Let England Shake" made it, that was a brilliant record.

Re: Most influential in 20 years
Ridiculous list but as I own 19 of them I suppose it may have some merit and I will need to buy the one I am missing.
Don't believe the 60's was the golden age of pop. You glorify the past when the future dries up.

Re: Most influential in 20 years
you have to remember, this was voted by readers of a certain magazine at a certain point of time in the UK. Arguably, older records aren't on the same playing field as newer ones.

Re: Most influential in 20 years
Too low for sure, be interesting to see what the answers to the same question would be in 20yrs time (best records of 1993-2013)jrfhoutx wrote:I thought the same thing...chrono_1980 wrote:Not sure how In Utero was so low... Hmm
I wonder how much higher it would be currently if they only counted votes from people 35 and over?

Re: Most influential in 20 years
Possibly the best album of the last 20 years (definitely 10 years): John Grant - Queen Of Denmark. Suede's Dog Man Star would also be there.
Really this is just a list of albums that most people own, nothing out of the ordinary and very predictable

I just learned of John Grant a couple months ago. I won a copy of Pale Green Ghosts, and it has blown me fully away.
