Several outlets have published lists ranking the best rock albums of the 1990s, with some focusing on specific aspects such as deep cuts or follow-up albums. The lists vary in length, with some featuring 20, 50, or 100 albums. Multiple sources, including Loudwire, Collider, Slant Magazine, and Louder, have weighed in on the topic, with some also considering the albums more broadly as the greatest of the decade.
