Following on the heels of last year\'s Smells Like Infinite Sadness episode ranking the best albums from 1988, co-host Chris Logan and I decided to tackle all the best albums turning 30 in 2019. That\'s right, 1989 was 30 years ago! We\'re old!!

\\n

1989 was a big year for alternative rock, foreshadowing the rise of its commercial and critical appeal in the 90s (speaking of, we\'re tackling 1994 next) as well as a banner year for hip-hop and metal, featuring classics releases from the likes of Faith No More, The Cult, De La Soul, Lenny Kravitz, Nirvana, The Stone Roses, Nine Inch Nails, Pixies and The Cure\'s masterstroke, among many, many more (picking only 30 was kind of a nightmare, folks).

\\n

For this episode we picked 30 from 30 yrs ago, with our own individual picks and a mutual choice for the best of that year.
