Doolittle (Pixies) Report Abuse
There would be no Nevermind or OK Computer without Doolittle. That alone makes the Pixies an incredibly significant band. One of the 20 best albums ever made in any genre. Best Song: "Hey"

Velvet Underground and Nico Report Abuse
The real soundtrack of the late 60's and early 70's. The counter-counter culture. Best song: "Femme Fatale"

OK Computer (Radiohead) Report Abuse
The second most influential album of the 90's, but actually better than the first. OK Computer took pop music to places it had never been. Sounds like its time as much as any album ever has. Best Song: "Karma Police"
