Jagged Little Pill
The 302nd greatest album of all time
Jagged Little Pill, released in 1995 by Alanis Morissette, is an alternative rock album that blends post-grunge edge with pop rock hooks and candid singer-songwriter lyrics. Produced with Glen Ballard, the record mixes acoustic and distorted electric guitars, driving rhythms, and direct, emotionally charged vocals that move between quiet intimacy and cathartic release. Its plainspoken, confessional writing paired with memorable melodies marks a stylistic shift toward a more rock-oriented, expressive sound for Morissette.
