1993 favorite albums
Number 1
Mazzy Star - So Tonight That I Might See
You're hypnotized straight off with the opening track, Fade Into You--you remained locked in this dreamlike state through the rest of the ride, and what a ride it is. An all time album for me.
#1993AlbumsTop20
1. Depeche Mode - Songs of Faith and Devotion
Thank you @musiccountdownguy.bsky.social for hosting. 1993 is one of my favorite years for music.
#1993AlbumsTop20
1. ANODYNE, Uncle Tupelo
What if The Beatles broke up 7 months after REVOLVER? Within the niche of alt-country, this is still the genre's masterpiece. And yes we got Wilco & Son Volt out of the divorce, but the Tweedy/Farrar rivalry brought an energy that was never quite the same.
Album:

Pearl Jam-Vs.
Song:
1️⃣
Radiohead-Creep
Easy choice this time. From October '93 through what feels like 1996, PJs orange circle rarely left my car discman or home hi-fi. 🟠▶️🔊 Thank you, Barry @musiccountdownguy.bsky.social for hosting us again! Always fun, and nostalgic. 👋🏻❤️

Cheers @musiccountdownguy.bsky.social for organising! Another one of my favourite years in music - as well as coming across music I haven’t played in a while 😎👍🏻
#1993AlbumsTop20
Day 20. The Afghan Whigs - Gentlemen
With all the loud guitars and pulsating beats, there’s always room for a little soul. Except this soul is jet black - delivering sermons that life’s shit and then you cry. Greg Dulli has one hell of a rasp though!
Favourite track - Debonair

#1993AlbumsTop20
1. Nirvana - In Utero
Hearing this at 13 was intense. I was dealing with my own alienation and there's this world-famous guy basically saying "I'm not ok with all this either". Irrespective of the tragedy that followed, I still love this angry monster of an album.
