Year: 1996

1. Suede: Coming Up

The
singles album from Suede. Contains perfect pop music of a kind they'll probably not be
able to pull off once more...

Second album
from Sheryl Crow. Much more edge which really suits her music. More info... |
4. Booth & The Bad Angel:
Booth & The Bad Angel
 |
Very interesting duo: Tim
Booth from James and the Twin Peaks composter Angelo Badalamenti. Together they make very
atmospheric pop music with substance.

5. George Michael: Older
 |
An album so
well produced that it's hard to put a finger on it. It shows that George Michael has
opened his life to the world.

6. R.E.M.: New Adventures In Hi-Fi
 |
A
very mature album from one of rock's greatest. R.E.M. reached another level after they
released "Automatic For The People". |
7. Sneaker Pimps: Becoming X
 |
A moody trip hot and
dance cocktail. A shame that the lead singer has left the band. Her voice is needed to
create the special atmosphere of this fine debut album. |
8. Fiona Apple: Tidal
 |
Debut album from Fiona
Apple. She's only in her early twenties but sounds like she's forty. Brilliant stuff!

9. Neneh Cherry: Man
 |
Very mature album from
Neneh Cherry. A more open and atmospheric sound has replaced the hip hop attitude - much
to my liking. |
10. Faithless: Reverence
 |
One of the best dance
albums of the ´90's. Faithless found their own formula and set new standards for the
creation of dance... |
