Jake in the desertBeen a long time since I listened to Meantime fully. This will determine whether this is my top album from 1992, or if it's Piece of Cake by Mudhoney, which I just did fully- and is another SERIOUS contender. These are my final two out of a larger list for '92, and this one is CLOSE, like some of the others. Some years are really tougher to figure out than others 😅

Oh, and the reason I'm listening to all this older music is because I'm working on that 'album for every year I've been alive' thing @ttntm did, and not only is it going to help future 'favorite album' blog posts @HailsandAles does, it's a wild thing to do. I probably won't mention it again til I'm done or almost done, but the list is here, 1980-1992 is done: https://record.club/jake4480/lists/one-album-for-every-year-ive-been-alive
Brief note on the 'album for every year I've been alive' thing. I have less than 20 years to go now, home stretch. And since I'm only doing one per year, some choices have been tough. And there's lots to listen to. Today will be 2008.
A strange realization I had, I love Weedeater a ton and have been playing several of their records, but strangely, many of the years they had albums, so did Static-X, and I love Static-X more than Weedeater-- just slightly. So Static-X has just BARELY edged out a Weedeater album or two for several of the years now 😂 Weird. And tough.
Skullvalanche@jake4480 This is why when I made my selections for favorite song every year I kept around the list of all of the top contenders because sometimes it was too close to call.
@skullvalanche It's insane sometimes. Earlier years were easier. I had 27 damn albums to look at for 2027 🤯 not that I listen to all fully, since some I'm so familiar with, I can just glance and rate. Others I need to revisit. And then 2008, struggled to even find one that was perfect - not that there weren't a lot that year but my criteria is fairly strict. Finally found one though, whew (The Roots)
DaveKaz@jake4480 @skullvalanche I have over 100 for some years in the 80s.
