on second thought you could also throw in Aaliyah's "I Care 4 U", but that's more of a posthumous compilation with some added unreleased tracks
Mother Love Bone - Apple (Andy Wood)
Joy Division - Closer (Ian Curtis)
The question is—which ones are actually good? Which ones are trash? And which ones are overrated/underrated?
I really do think Lulu is underrated. Not great, but it's an album that normies rejected because they were too normie. It's true that the riffs were pretty generic, and the vocals and the instrumentals didn't quite fit, but I'd assume the people hating on Lulu probably were the kind of people who thought MMM was a joke, too.
