Achtung Baby Named Best Album Of Past 25 Years

U2's Achtung Baby has been named the best album of the last 25 years in a new magazine poll.

Editors of American publication Spin are celebrating the monthly magazine's 25th year with countdowns of their top moments and concert highlights from the quarter-century, and they've crowned U2's 1991 album the best release.

Prince's Sign O' The Times came in second and The Smiths' The Queen is Dead is third.

Nevermind by Nirvana and Radiohead's OK Computer complete the top five.
