The Real Thing.

Faith No More are one of my favourite bands so they automatically get my vote.

I'd like to see NIN win this, but Faith No More is cool, too. PHM was the first CD I ever had.

The important thing is, they beat out garbage like Skid Row and Motley Crue. :angel:

You know, if WDADU had one more vote, it might have been in the final. And if it was in the final, I think it may have won by default.

Can you imagine if WDADU got voted the best album of 1989? That is a scary thought.  :corn

This seems to be one of the less well-received finals threads. It's also the first time a great album actually got to the final round while beating out a lot of garbage. But, like I said, FNM is good, too.

Which is the reason I did not participate this year. I know there must be better 89 music, just haven't gotten around to listen to it.
