Which of the following is your favourite album? My 40 albums project has to be finished before Dubya takes down the internet.

thanks for the alternatives. i don't know all of them but i doubt any of them would be close to being my fave of 1994. btw i am still not 100% sure of my fave but it probably is the same one you chose.

protection was the 1st massive attack i got to know and i loved it at the time but can't bear to listen to it anymore.

i remember mellow gold as slightly over-hyped. it didn't make a lasting impression on me. i prefer his songwriter album mutations.

i never liked liz phair. to me she seemed a pale copy-cat of pj harvey. the 1st album was very disappointing. i don't even know if i have the second, i guess yes. it may well be better than the 1st but that doesn't mean much.

i stopped buying stereolab albums in 1994 i think. i loved the early stuff but when they started with soundtracks and "world" music i lost them. the early records like peng! are very neu! as well. and velvet undergroundish.

concerning high llamas i only own hawaii which i love but only listen to rarely as it is such a lush and sugar-sweet album.

p.s. i forgot tori amos. i have that album but i think i developed an allergy against her voice. not sure. maybe i should try listening to her again. or liz phair. yes, i think liz phair. whip-smart. now.

whip-smart is quite good, you are right. except the 1st track which is pretty boring. i don't know why i always associate phair with pj harvey. they have totally different styles. pj harvey is much more dynamic and urgent, liz phair is more relaxed and laid-down. maybe as they are both kind of riot-girls.

well, ofcourse, i got them mixed up, didn't i? in that case just dump my comments - protection is the lesser of their albums, methinks.

ok, phil. i deleted our last two comments. but you know you can also delete your comments yourself (please don't do it if not necessary). in antville you can always edit and dump your old comments. phantastic, isn't it?
