'Reign In Blood' is the third studio album by Slayer. The album was the band's first collaboration with producer Rick Rubin, whose input helped the band's sound evolve. The release date of the album was delayed because of concerns regarding the lyrical subject matter of the opening track 'Angel Of Death', which refers to Josef Mengele and describes acts such as human experimentation that he committed at the Auschwitz concentration camp. The band's members stated that they did not condone Nazism and were merely interested in the subject. It was well received by both critics and fans, and is often mentioned among the greatest heavy metal albums ever recorded.

'South Of Heaven' is the fourth studio album by Slayer. Given the innovative speed metal pace of their previous album 'Reign In Blood', Slayer deliberately slowed the tempo on 'South Of Heaven' and used undistorted guitars and toned-down vocals. It reached number 57 on the Billboard 200.

'Arise' is the fourth studio album by Sepultura. Upon its release, the album received top reviews from heavy metal magazines such as Rock Hard, Kerrang! and Metal Forces, and is considered Sepultura's finest hour among longtime fans.

'Nevermind' is the second studio album by Nirvana. It was their first release on a major label and the first to feature drummer Dave Grohl. Produced by Butch Vig, it features a more polished, radio-friendly sound than the band's prior work. It was recorded at Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, California, and Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin, in May and June 1991, and mastered that August at the Mastering Lab in Hollywood, California. The album became an unexpected critical and commercial success, reaching the top 10 on charts across the world. On January 11, 1992, it knocked Michael Jackson's 'Dangerous' out of the number one spot on the U.S. Billboard 200 and was selling approximately 300,000 copies a week. The album also garnered the band three Grammy Award nominations in total across the 34th and 35th Grammy Awards, including Best Alternative Music Album.

'Dirty' is the seventh studio album and second double album by Sonic Youth. The band recorded and co-produced the album with Butch Vig in early 1992 at the Magic Shop recording studios. The sound on Dirty was inspired by the popularity of grunge music at the time, and has been described by Billboard magazine as experimental rock.

'Sweet Oblivion' is the sixth studio album by Screaming Trees. It quickly became the band's best-selling record, and was the closest they ever came to achieving mainstream success, selling in excess of 300,000 copies. Around the time of the recording of the album, the band's original drummer Mark Pickerel left to pursue other musical interests, and was replaced with Barrett Martin.

'Soup' is the second studio album by Blind Melon. It is the band's last album released during the lifetime of vocalist Shannon Hoon. It received generally mixed reviews from critics and fared poorly commercially, with the album only reaching number 28 on the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart and going on to sell 217,000 copies in the United States by October 1996. Hoon's death from a fatal drug overdose two months after the album's release resulted in the album's promotion being abruptly cut off, further affecting sales.

'Nevermind [20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition]' is a reissue by Nirvana. It features the original album remastered, associated b-sides, outtakes, alternate mixes, and a full concert recorded on Halloween 1991.
