Looks like I'm going through (my) #PerfectAlbums today. They're all subjective.
This one might not be some people's tastes. But to me, it's perfect.

I'm a Meat Puppets fanatic, seen em multiple times, love stuff from all the albums. But only a few of their records I find perfect. I'm not big on their super early stuff. Bits and pieces.
I dig 'Monsters' from 1989 fully, but it's not an 'anytime' kind of record for me. So the first Meat Puppets record I find perfect - an 'anytime' album - is 1991's 'Forbidden Places'.
Has some real alt-country on this one (as most Puppets records do, it's not much, among the blazing guitars). From the first seconds and minutes of "Sam" - I mean, they still play this live. It is WILD. They Might Be Giants covered "Whirlpool". This album is rad, man. From "No Longer Gone" (which was my username on Twitter for many years) 
to the title track, just legendary. Underrated?

Briefly, I threw some of my favorite Meat Puppets songs on a playlist - that isn't to say there's not songs on MANY of their other LPs and EPs I love, but there's nothing before 1989 here. These are my Meat Puppets go-to LPs. To me, all perfect but one, which is close. In chronological order,
*Monsters (perfect)
*Forbidden Places (perfect)
*Too High to Die (perfect)
*No Joke! (perfect minus a song or two I don't like)
*Sewn Together (perfect)
*Lollipop (perfect)
*Rat Farm (perfect)
*Dusty Notes (perfect)
And this is a 17 song playlist with a lot of my favorites, too - pretty much all from those albums: https://youtu.be/ZLAnAnXziok
Going through a small Meat Puppets playlist I just threw together quickly to boost my mood. It's only three hours long.

Four albums from the 90s with no bad songs on 'em, is the challenge, not in so many words, over on BlueSky.
Easy enough to do.
