Lauryn Hill is definitely one of them (doesn't actually say the anniversary is in the same month as it would be 25 years in August). Wonder if the second album off pitchfork's list is going to be that quarter too.
In Utero 30th anybody?

A 40th anniversary of "The Hurting" (would also take a definitive version of "Power Corruption and Lies") would definitely be something. Not a subgenre they regularly dip into. A 40th "Speaking in Tongues" would also be rad if the last reissue wasn't amazing.

Storf also pretty much confirmed they were doing it.

But, in all seriousness, Blue Öyster Cult's Tyranny and Mutation would be a cool pick as well.

I don't think there's an antique store I've walked in without at least 10 copies of this

I would love if they did more 80's albums. Give me all the Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode, the Cure, etc etc.

100%. Toss in some Siouxsie and definitely some Talk Talk.

Go on, geezer.
I guess it’s not impossible for the band to work with VMP(I don’t think they would) but next year will be the 25th anniversary for Before These Crowded Streets-Dave Matthews Band.
