The 1996 Tortoise album Millions Now Living Will Never Die celebrates a 25th anniversary today! The LP is seen as a ground-breaking album for the post-rock genre. The 20 minute opening track Djed just sucks you in! |

The debut Leftfield album Leftism is 25 years old today! Nominated for the Mercury Prize, the LP is perceived as a landmark album in dance music, and still sounds superb. The track Open Up with John Lydon is one of my all-time favourites. |

The 1989 New Order album Technique is 30 years old today! The LP was partly recorded in Ibiza and featured singles Fine Time, Round & Round and Run. Stylus Mag said “may have made better records, but none defines them, sounds so quintessentially like what they were always reaching for, as Technique.” neworder.com |
