I don't agree

with they say here.

Think Nirvana's album was better - but then again, the only Radiohead song I like/ever heard is creep.

I own both of them - I think OK Computer's way better, but then again I never really got the huge allure of Nirvana.

"Nevermind" should be #1, IMO.  And I'm thrilled that "Surfer Rosa" is in the top five!  Yay for the Pixies!

Nevermind was #1 in the Rolling Stone poll awhile ago.  It's definitely more influential than OKC, but if you're gonna go by influence, Surfer Rosa should be higher than Nevermind.

If it's by influence, then Doolittle should be sitting pretty right next to Surfer Rosa.  Surfer had more of the sound that people copped, but Doolittle was the one that put "Smells Like Teen Spirit" together, and that was the song that broke open the floodgates of the Seattle scene.
A sophism of madness...

Surely the Libertines 'Up the Bracket' should be on that list - it practically launched the today's London/Poptones scene.
