Americana - The Offspring

Super weird year, lots of good bands with mediocre releases. Liz Phair, Alanis Morissette, Mudhoney, Robb Zombie among others receiving votes.

I could have had 50 slots and this still wouldn't have made the list.

You're right, not a skrong "rock" year. 1998 was the mainstream ascendancy of "electronica."

Afghan Whigs - 1966

Back in 2009-10 I worked at a mortgage company. I got along with the bosses really well. One of them would come over to my cubicle, and he'd stick his nose at the top of it and inhale deeply and go, "I myself, cannot..." in an English accent. It was funny even after 23 times.

Damnit, I got it wrong.

Huh, I missed this album for whatever reason. I pulled up the track listing and don't recognize a single song.

EDIT
Maybe I did hear this song at some poont.

I was a total trip-hop hipster in early 90s. "Oh you don't know Trick? Portishead? Mo Wax? It's only the BIGGEST thing in the Ewe Kay. I like to call Great Britain the Ewe Kay. It's something I like to do, bruv."
