A rather eclectic list I suppose...
I completely forgot about Rocket and a Bomb! I'm shamelessly stealing it and putting it on my under-rated 90s lists, for I have no pride. I'm not the biggest Ezra fan, but I haven't heard much of the album you mention; I hear it is their best.
Shalom, y'all!

Thank you for listing R.E.M.'s "Monster". I saw in the latest Maxim (a friend's! a friend's!) that Monster is on list of something like "worst albums ever". Personally I think it is one of their most atmospheric and one of their best. "Strange Currencies" is a great love song, and I like the message of "Tongue" and "Let Me In". I'm afraid I don't know many of the others on this list...looks like I need to get crackin' on some tunes...
