10 Best Number One Rock Albums Of The 1990s

10. Significant Other - Limp Bizkit

In 1997, red hat afficionado Fred Durst and his friends, Limp Bizkit, released their debut studio album, Three Dollar Bill, Y'all.

As well as being mathematically incorrect, the album didn't perform all that well, only managing to reach number 22 in the charts. This lit a fire under Freddie and the gang, who returned two years later with a classic of the era.

Significant Other was seen as a marked improvement over the previous effort, with more attitude on display, more variation in the songs, and a better sense of what this group of angry young men were all about.

With tracks like Nookie, N 2 Gether Now, and Break Stuff in its corner, Significant Other rocketed up the charts to give Bizkit their first ever number one album in July of 1999. It would enjoy two stints at the peak for a combined total of four weeks, coming either side of the album Millennium by the Backstreet Boys. If that doesn't tell you how varied the music scene was at the time, nothing will.

Rap rock certainly was a moment in time and the Biz embodied that moment with this hard-hitting, no-nonsense album.
