76 Hootie & The Blowfish - Cracked Rear ViewThe debut album from the heartland rock band from South Carolina. This is a hard one to rate, I actually love this record way more than I admit to myself, the singles are classics and most of it is just really solid. They did not deserve any grieff for this it is a very strong first record. It is maybe a little long. It was a massive succes in the US, it raeched #1 there of course and sold over 21 million copies there, it sold around the same in the rest of the world in total as well. It reached #12 here, actually never knew it did did so well. 3.5/5 but a high one!

77 John Mellencamp - Dance NakedThe thirteenth album from the veteran singer songwriter and it is not one of his best. It really is Mellencamp on autopilot but the hit single 'Wild Night' the last thing I bought by him physically is a fun excursion. After some success in the UK, this one didn't chart here reaching #13 in the US. 3.5/5

78 Sponge - Rotting PiñataThis was the debut album from the alt rock band from Michigan. Another band I never knew at the time but I have since played their two hits a lot from various playlists "Plowed" and"Molly (16 Candles Down the Drain)". But even based on that I was not expecting much but thought this was a very solid release. Good stuff. It reached #68 in the UK. 3.5/5

79 Pale Saints - Slow BuildingsThe third and final album from the shoegaze band and it is weird how this band jsut dropped off my radar. Massive fan of both their previous records but I never heard thsi one until this year. It is not a classic or especially intersting but it is still top notch exampel of the genre and much better than most of what pasts for shoegaze today. The album flopped as well. 3.5/5

80 The Smithereens - A Date With The SmithereensThis was their fifth album and it is not regarded as one of their best and it did have troubled production. But for me I really enjoyed this so happy that I have been able to dig deeper into this band that I knew for decades that I would really be in to. Even though they still managed to get a hit single from this album, it was still a poor perfomer reaching #133 in the UK. 3.5/5

Who is singing on it? And where did the music come from? You wrote the music to it and played it? I might be wrong but I am guessing some AI was involved. Either way its damn good

81 Compulsion - ComforterOne of the best new punk bands, Compulsion were from Ireland and looked like they might have broken through with the single "Mall Monarchy" getting quite a bit of airplay. That was not to be but the guiarist went on to fame as super producer Jacknife Lee. The record did chart though raeching #59 in the UK. Check this band out if you like Billy Talent, they share a lot of DNA. 3.5/5

82 Apollo 440 - Millennium FeverThe band though I loved in the 90s. This is the debut record from the electronic UK band. Never heard this all the way through but did have both the singles "Astral America" and their rather faboulous cover of "(Don't Fear) The Reaper". Basically thsi band are the middle ground between Jesus Jones and Utah Saints. This is such a great party record and they will only get bigger and better from here. This album only reached #117 in the UK 3.5/5

83 Low - I Could Live in HopeThe second act that was not knwon to me at the time that males my top 100. This is the debut album from the cult slowcore/ post-rock band. This is the first time I have heard the US band;s debut album and it is so good. It will be some time until the band break into the mainstream but I will be checking out all their early stuff. 3.5/5 may go to a 4!

84 Kristin Hersh - Hips and MakersThis list officially starts here, the next few are all albums that narrowly missed out on a 4/5. This was her ebut album and it is much more introspective than the majority of Throwing Muses records but it is also some of the most chilling and gorgeous music she has done. She is on 4AD for a reason. This is also her biggest album raeching #7 in the UK. 3.5/5

85 dEUS - Worst Case ScenarioI was expecting to enjoy this debut album from the Belgian alt rock band more than I did, about 2/3s of it is really good but the rest is pretty unlistenable. So all over the place "Suds & Soda" is amazing of course. Listen at your own risk. 3.5/5
