Casting

The writers were aiming to have artists that represented several genres: hip hop (Cypress Hill), alternative rock and grunge (Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins) and a classic rock singer. Originally, Bob Dylan was sought for this role, but he was replaced by Peter Frampton.[7] Neil Young and Pearl Jam[8] were also sought for the episode but turned down the offer.
Originally, Courtney Love and Hole were wanted for this episode, but they declined.[9] According to the DVD commentary an unnamed group had said that if Courtney Love was in the episode, they would not be. An Entertainment Weekly article revealed that the group was Sonic Youth.

1. Bad Moon Rising

3. Confusion is Sex
4. Washing Machine
5. Daydream Nation

Very Close Runner-Ups: Sonic Youth (to me more a short album than an e.p.), Sister, Invito Al Cielo, NYC Ghosts & Flowers, Nurse

2-5 are really pretty much interchangeable for me too. BMR is my favorite album by anyone ever.

1. EVOL (Because it has a coherent sound to it, and it's the album on which all their albums are built upon)

2. Sonic Nurse (Although not as coherent, it has a fresh sound, lots of fun and interesting songs, and a lot of favorites)

3. Daydream Nation (no explanation needed)

4. NYC Ghosts & Flowers (their most unique and creative album, also has a coherent atmosphere throughout, also has great experimentation)

5. Murray Street (not coherent, but has some very sweet songs on it; not one song on that album is bad)

It's good to see the 'Dirty' fans come out of the wood-work! People are afraid to name it as one of their favs and, for some reason, feel compelled to list 'NYCG&F' on these types of lists. 'Dirty' DESTROYS 'NYCG&F' - period. Here goes...

1. Daydream Nation
2. Sister
3. Dirty
4. Washing Machine
5. EVOL

I would have put The Eternal at #4, but it's a little too early to tell.

(Not in order)
Washing Machine
Goo
Daydream Nation (A recent climb into the Top 5)
Experimental Jet Set
Murray Street

Do I lose cred for liking Experimental Jet Set? Seems unpopular here (I had no idea)... hrm...

And I agree with it being too early to tell on Eternal, but it could well make my top 5 - I'm loving this album.
