USE YOUR ILLUSION I & II (1991), Guns N’ Roses: This is technically cheating (because it’s two albums), but I bought them on the same night and I think almost everybody views this as a double album that was bifurcated for wholly egocentric reasons. It was basically Mechanical Animals, the vibe on “Celebrity Skin,” two or three songs off the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack I can’t remember, and this underappreciated album from two British brothers who ate a lot of Chinese food.ġ3. SPACEHOG (1994), Spacehog: It was difficult to find good glam when Bill Clinton was president. FEAR OF A BLACK PLANET (1990), Public Enemy: I fearlessly played this on a Sony Walkman while walking around the campus of the University of North Dakota, an exceptionally unblack planet.ġ4. I guess I can see the logic either way.ġ5. Helmet seemed to constantly lecture me about how I wasn’t using common sense and that I needed to distrust the motives of my closest friends, while Alice in Chains merely tried to convince me to sit in an oversized chair and try heroin.

The other key exception was Alice in Chains, although that lyrical experience was quite different. As I look over this list, I recognize how strange it was that I didn’t listen to much heavy music during the nineties that wasn’t recorded in the seventies. BETTY (1994), Helmet: The loudest concert I ever attended was Type O Negative, but the second loudest was Helmet and the third-loudest was Helmet’s soundcheck before that show.
