Best Albums of 1990

Here are the top 5 albums released in 1990.  As you can see we love the Black Crowes.  Looking at what was released in 1990, it's easy to see why alternative music exploded in 1991.  Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814 was the top selling US album for the year.

Man you are right. 1990 was pretty weak sauce for music.

Travman can attest to this being an all time favorite of mine:

Nine Inch Nails - Head like a hole EP

Excellent choice... But I'll let Wanamaker respond to this.

It's a good single - although I think it gets a bit repetitive in terms of remixes. I prefer the UK release to the US. I'm not really considering singles for this as they tend to be vehicles to promote a song and not a continuous album.
