You can say that: it's a Super High Quality selection. I suppose Radiohead will get some likes (for me it's one of the best albums of the 90s), so I go with another highlight for me: Einstürzende Neubauten!

Wow, this is a tough one. The only album I’m not familiar with is Einstürzende Neubauten, and most of the albums are ones I have a great love for. Tough call, but as much as I love Bowie, I think I might give Roxy the vote.

Very nice selection. Actually two of these are among my absolute favourites, and that'd be Tago Mago and My Life in the Bush of Ghosts. I have voted for Can a lot and it'd be a bit predictable given my avatar, so Eno & Byrne it is. Some others are great, too. I think I put Einstuerzende Neubauten, Radiohead, Sigur Ros on the next ranks. Each of them could win an easier poll.

I'm in the mood for some Talking Heads right now so they get the nod.

CAN, Faust, and Malcom Mclaren stuff. Not Prog but brilliant and out there. Jeff Beck & Bootsie Collins played on "Waltz Darling".  Extremely experimental Pop/Hip hop. 

Someone said Bowies "Low"... Greatness!  And his final Blackstar with the videos gives me the Bonafide creeps. It's like a cursed album or something, I don't have the words ...  But it is great.

"My Life in the Bush of Ghosts" is my pick because it's an exciting experimental album that brilliantly fuses diverse musical styles and innovative sampling techniques. The album gained some popularity in the UK and Europe upon its release, which perfectly reflected a certain degree of enthusiasm for avant-garde and experimentalism among British and European youth in the early 1980s, and yet it's still an enjoyable record even today.
