1. Therapy? - Troublegum
2. Stone Roses - Stone Roses
3. Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix
4. Teenage Fanclub - A Catholic Education
5. Carter USM - 30 Something

a great selection, have seen all them bands live on several occasions, nights very fondly remembered, have to say I am very impressed with albums selected overall in the poll, proves the gaa is far from a conservative body.

Rufus T Firefly

New Gold Dream - Simple Minds,
Undertones - The Sin of Pride
Damned - Phantasmagoria
Propaganda - A Secret Wish
Electronic - Electronic

Ohtoohtobe

1. Siamese Dream - Smashing Pumpkins
2. Without You I'm Nothing - Placebo
3. Is this it - The Strokes

I could fill the last two slots on this with any of 20-odd albums but I wouldn't change the top three.

What would be conservative though? Is there any such thing in music taste?

I agree, that's a bizarre comment/mindset.

Of course there is. Coppers.
Listened to Mariah Carey 15 years ago. Or Rick Astley. Or any of the boybands run by your man from Kiltimagh.
Would never have listened to D Fanning back in the day. The Hotline instead.
