These have stood the test of time:

Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream (/MCIS - for the sake of not mentioning several albums by the same artist)

Radiohead - The Bends (/Ok Computer/Kid A)

Jeff Buckley - Grace

Suede - Dog Man Star (/Coming Up/Sci-fi Lullabies - Richard Oakes > Bernard Butler IMO yet DMS is DMS)

Portishead - Portishead (/Dummy - Dummy seems to be the one enjoying the classic status out of the two, but to me the melancholic goodness of s/t owns all)

Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine (One hell of an album. Has not dated a day in 15 years. Solid from start to finish)

Tool - Ænima (/Lateralus - As with Weezer, it depends on the day which one I prefer. I'm amazed how It seems to be a hip thing to despise Tool around these boards. I doubt it has much to do with the music itself)

Elliott Smith - XO (/Either/Or)

Bill Hicks - Rant in E-Minor (Comedy instead of music, but the title said "top albums" and this is an album so what the heck. Great, great comedian)
