Bruce Dickinson's album "Accident of birth" for me is an awesome piece of art!
Still after 27 years I keep coming back to it.
Best “Iron Maiden" album of the 90s (at least) 😉
Briefly, I threw some of my favorite Meat Puppets songs on a playlist - that isn't to say there's not songs on MANY of their other LPs and EPs I love, but there's nothing before 1989 here. These are my Meat Puppets go-to LPs. To me, all perfect but one, which is close. In chronological order,
*Monsters (perfect)
*Forbidden Places (perfect)
*Too High to Die (perfect)
*No Joke! (perfect minus a song or two I don't like)
*Sewn Together (perfect)
*Lollipop (perfect)
*Rat Farm (perfect)
*Dusty Notes (perfect)
And this is a 17 song playlist with a lot of my favorites, too - pretty much all from those albums: https://youtu.be/ZLAnAnXziok
Dread Zeppelin – “Un-Led-Ed” (1990)
UK release on I.R.S. Records
Limited edition picture disc LP
These guys were so fun, and I still really enjoy this album. I love when a band has a gimmick (mixing genres, mimicking famous bands, etc.) that they commit so fully to while also having the skills to really pull it off. ZEPPELIN MUSIC INNA REGGE STYLE!
I mean, even Robert Plant endorsed these guys, saying their version of “Your Time Is Gonna Come” was better than the original 🤯
And they were from Sierra Madre, CA. For me, that town is best known for where they keep all the floats right before the start of the Rose Parade. 🌹
You know one reason Pete might be aggressive and assertive is that his family is the only cat family in a whole city with millions of dogs. He's making himself look big, so to speak.

2017 U.S. 2xLP Ltd. Ed. Reissue
A monster album for me when I was in high school.
Being a total devotee of all things Sub Pop in the #90s , this one hit me in a way that none of the label’s other releases at the time.
I remember buying it on tape, & it taking me at least a week to get past the first 3 songs, because I kept rewinding it after Song For An Angel and playing those 3 over & over.
I knew that IMDb had been around a long time but TIL it predates the World Wide Web, as it was initially launched as Usenet group rec.arts.movies in 1990 and moved to the web in 1993. And it's been owned by Amazon since 1998, because of course it has 🙄
