best album on this list of albums released in February of 1990

voting for the one i've heard

Voted Frizzle Fry, but at one point or another I owned 14 of those albums.

this is easily Gold Afternoon Fix.

Submarine Bells, just about saved me in '90, really...

i have no idea so i'm voting for the one with the title that's closest to dark side of the moon

Submarine Bells I still play but others like Blue Sky Mining and Gold Afternoon Fix were and remain treading water albums.

Submarine Bells obviously

Klf

Not voting as I haven't heard a single one of these all the way through.

Only record on this list that I've owned is Blue Sky Mining, which was one of the more disappointing snoozefests I've ever heard.

Thin White Rope! Not their best album admittedly, but I would say it was their last great one. Television-ish twin guitar desert psych that would sit nicely alongside Hairway To Steven and the Meat Pup's Up On The Sun. Great version of Yoo Doo Right on there too.

yeah Submarine Bells, but honestly, Fading Away>Heavenly Pop Hit.
I'm a big fan of bands that take their sound and run it into the ground.

I love The Church and their music has aged fantastically but Submarine Bells is impossible to top.

Church obv

I have heard none of these but MC Hammer is always a safe choice so.

'(She Says) Come Around' is a nice bit of a 'There She Goes' rip on an otherwise forgettable Rave-Ups record.

KLF for sure

At the time, my answer definitely would have been Shake Your Money Maker

Used to own blue sky mining and beautiful south, still own submarine bells but not in LOVE with it as a whole

i'll go to bad for that first Black Crowes album, "Jealous Again" roolz

havent heard any of these but 'chill out' which is a p cool record

voting for cowboy junkies because of the album's opener "sun comes up, it's tuesday morning"

Much as I love the Church... 'Extricate'.

gonna guess this is the first and last time I'll ever vote for The Black Crows

had to double check but no, the Beautiful South's debut seems to be called Welcome to in the US just like everywhere else

sb

just sayin! like Chill Out best of these anyway

haha i meant submarine bells

lol

Bought three of these at the time: KLF, Fall, Cowboy Junkies. Voting for the latter.

At the time, I bought the 12-inch single of 'Got to Have Your Love', which is on the Mantronix album. I haven't heard the rest of the album but I'll vote for it because I still really like that single.

Very cool poll idea, by the way.

Voted Primus.

I didn't hear the Black Crowes album until this year when I decided to check out their whole catalog in one burst. (I made it to album #3.)

I remember the Midnight Oil and Cowboy Junkies albums as being huge dropoffs in quality from their immediate predecessors.

sha la la la...

The Chills for me. That Oingo Bingo album was deeply disappointing and my jumping off point though really they lost it with the previous "Boin-go".

it's far from the best thin white rope album, but i'm still voting for the thin white rope album

(I made it to album #3.)

Ooh, so close. Albums #4 and #5 are the best ones imo.

Definitely The KLF

Voted KLF, though Telephone Thing is the greatest Fall song of them all.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

That Oingo Bingo album was deeply disappointing and my jumping off point though really they lost it with the previous "Boin-go".

"Boi-ngo" was the first of their albums that I bought, simply because it was their newest album at the time, and then I went back and got all of their older albums over the course of the next year or so. It turned out I liked almost all of them more than "Boi-ngo", but I was still highly anticipating the follow-up. I remember dreaming about going into a record store and seeing the new Boingo album on the racks. By the time it finally came out, I had somewhat moved on, so my expectations were not quite so high, but yeah, it was still a letdown.

"Blue Sky Mining" was also kind of a letdown. Also, that Church album, to a lesser extent. Kind of a year for disappointing follow-ups I guess.

voted for the AOTY grammy nom. duh.
(that would be mc hammer in case it wasn't obvious.)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.
