UK Garage is very dear to me, it brings me back to a simpler time, where Pokemon was taking the world by storm and a big dome along with a big wheel was being built in London, my childhood was spent listening to a CD of remixed singles by The Artful Dodger every morning before going to primary school. That said, it's difficult to represent a "UK garage" album in this list because the genre was made for singles from various artists to be mixed together, (Garage overlaps with House so often you'd get mixes with stuff like Closer Than Close by Rosie Gaines) an album from one artist doesn't capture the surprise and diversity the genre typically offers. MJ Coles stuff, in particular, is more on the mellow side. For a better Garage experience I recommend looking into stuff like DJ Spoony's mixes on youtube.

5/5

As someone whose musical taste growing up had been largely determined by video games and Capital FM, I am so happy I'm discovering Radiohead now. Both this album and its "sibling" Amnesiac are among my favourite albums on this list. I can see why most prefer this album between the two, it covers a wider emotional range, moving from uneasy to upbeat to uneasy again like lapping waves, wheareas Amnesiac is more "sedate", but as a result I see the two like opposing sides of coin. Experimental Radiohead is, in my opinion, the best Radiohead. I only wish I discovered this sooner.

As I predicted the top rated comments miss the mark by a country mile. You can make anything seem unimpressive if you box it in with a simple word like "repetitive". How is that in any way helpful? Why not try "infectious", "energizing" or "blood-pumping"? I find those words do a much better job at capturing the appeal of this music.
