Best Album of 1996.

[Magic]

What is your favorite album of 1996?




This was a tough year for me to choose, because I was in my "country" phase. I wont bore you with a country album, but my pick would be:

Episode ~ Stratovarius


Other mentions:

Crash ~ Dave Matthews Band
Down on the Upside ~ Soundgarden
Odelay ~ Beck
Tormented ~ Staind

Sixteen Horsepower: Sackcloth n Ashes.

Toss up between Ayreon's 2nd album "Actual Fantasy" and my favorite "Iced Earth" album...I'll go with "The Dark Saga", one of the best covers ever as well.

This one...I'm not good at remembering the dates of all my CDs but that is a GREAT album.

 

[Soot and Stars]

I'm going to surprise a handful of people by my placement here but Fiona's debut is a huge milestone in my listening and Tidal is a perfect album!

Fiona Apple-Tidal

Runner Up:

My first Tori album which is a milestone as well being my second favorite artist ever but this particular Tori album falls just a notch below "Tidal"!

Tori Amos-Boys For Pele

 

[Riff Raff]

Other good 1996 albums.
Down on the Upside by Soundgarden
Roots by Sepultura
Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson
The Great Southern Trendkill by Pantera
