MISERY SO HOLLOW

Lists. I love lists. They work for me. They work for all of us. So, Blendetta.com wants our lists - our "opinions" if

Layne Staley

you will. I've got lots of those. I am a very opinionated person who works hard to appear as someone who is not. When I saw an invite to compose lists for publication, I was so excited. I thought, how easy ---> just put my opinions in numerical order. My first thought was 90's music. I loved the music in the 90's - almost all of it (except the pop and indie stuff - I've never liked that). My thoughts were racing non-stop about the opportunity to put MY list together of the music I liked from the decade I loved. But then I complicated things. I had to pull out all of my cds, and I mean all of them, to confirm release dates of some of the cds I wasn't sure about. Then, I put them in four different categories ---- for sures, probablies, maybes's and no haps. It wasn't as easy as I thought - I have a lot of cds - most of them from the 90's! After that, I had difficulty sorting out which ones really belonged in the maybe pile vs. the probably pile. Things got outta control and somehow I ended up driving around roughly 900 miles over a three-day period, listening and re-listening to cds to make sure I gave them all due consideration. I spent about $413 in gas, but, I've got my list together. Here goes:

Now remember, love it or hate it - it's my list. After reading this, go make your own:

10. Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie....
9. Third Eye Blind - S/T
8. STP - Core (Japanese Import w/Acoustic version of Plush)
7. Counting crows - August and Everything After
6. Snoop - Doggystyle
5. Nirvana - Nevermind
4. Dave Matthews Band - Before These Crowded Streets
3. Pearl Jam - 10
2. Nirvana - In Utero (tied with Nirvana Unplugged - which prompts my next list)
1. Alice in Chains - Jar of Flies



Honorable Mention must go to Counting Crows for This Desert Life, Soundgarden for Down on the Upside and Bush for 16 Stone. So, agree or disagree, you know it's good! Any other 90's people out there? Let's see your list. Or, have you not been enlightened to the 90's music yet because you think that Taking Back Gayday, I mean Sunday, is like classic rock? Maybe you think that King Diamond or (god forbid) Ratt is the greatest recording artist of all time!! Whatever. Anyway, put yourself out there. Let's see what you've got. Just don't spend three days driving around listening to music to come up with your list! Gas is too expensive right now. Ok - my rant is over. Now go pull out some 90's grunge, give it a fresh listen and enjoy. And remember, with the lights out, it's less dangerous!
