Needs more strings
I found them randomly on Facebook one day. Listened to their songs. Album of 2012 for me, such an awesome slab of music.

The most amazing stuff I have heard in a long, long, time. I remember listening to their EP a few days after it hit the web and looking all over the internet at least once a week thereafter for any news about Portal of I. Hell, it made my top 100.

I can't identify a lot of the albums in the lists that don't have the key to the side :O I lose. I love going through and noticing the random alternative/pop albums here and there among the endless repetitions of prog metal. I'm right there with that dude on page 1 who put Type O Negative's "October Rust" in his top 10. That album still sounds like nothing else and I think it was possibly the most formative in terms of letting me know there was more to music than Metallica and Korn...I must have listened to it more than any other album, starting back when I was about 14 all the way up until now. It's just too bad it was the first album I heard by them, the other ones didn't come anywhere close for me besides "World Coming Down," which was still a lot drabber. Some really, really great stuff on it anyway though.
"The Fragile" also blew my teenage mind, that thing still is one of the densest rock albums I've ever heard. I remember buying it when it first came out, after seeing some advance performance of the title track on the ol' MTV MUSIC AWARDS and thinking "OH MAN THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER". The first disc of it is almost perfect.
Foo Fighter's "Colour and the Shape" is another one, I think that and Third Eye Blind's S/T were among the first 10 albums I bought and they both had so much going on than the other crap I had (ex, Smashmouth!). I still love them today even though they've got some questionable stuff on them.
Here's mine!
There are a bunch of other albums I listened to a ton as a kid but can't really sit through anymore, they'd probably have been on here if there was more space though. Like, Megadeth's Rust in Peace, Youthanasia and Cryptic Writings I listened to a zillion times, same with Metallica - Reload, Ride the Lightning and Master of puppets. And Korn - Follow the Leader!!!

This was pretty hard.
I'm sure there is an album I'm forgetting but this will have to do.
It's mostly out of order. The top ten is most likely my top ten but I have no idea in which order.
I tried to have only one album from a band in each part except for other favorites, that's where I dumped a lot of second, third or fourth albums by the same artist.

Fiona Apple, Bjork, Tori Amos, Pat Metheny, Nicole Atkins--you've got great taste, my friend. Picked a ton of albums I overlooked, though they are always under heavy rotation

They're pretty well known in AU, Melbourne in particular. Tim Charles does do band bookings after all.

Some good stuff on there, that dillinger/patton ep is still one of my favorite thigns ever but since it's only like 20 minutes long I couldn't give it a spot!
I still think System of a Down's self-titled was WAY better than everything else they put out since, but until now I'd never seen anyone else with the same opinion! I'm not sure if it actually isn't as good and I'd just grown out of them by the time toxicity came around or what, but either way I still like the S/T more than Hypnotize/Mesmerize and Toxicity by a huge margin.
RATM's first one and Ulver's "Bergtatt" were both things I strongly contemplated, great albums. I played along with that RATM album on bass a whole ton of times over the years.

Firstly I realized what I'm missing: My Dying Bride.
Secondly, I know Irony is a Dead scene is a short one but HOLY SHIT! DEP and Patton on one album. That's like my wet dream...or well this is my wet dream actually:

Third: System of a Down's self titled is simply better than everything else they did in my opinion. Every song is really good, the quirkyness is there but so is the heavyness.

I did imgur but for some reason it took like 7 tries before it worked.
I think the website saves it as a PNG. Just use another program to save it as a JPG. Photobucket will be much happier.

Wow.
I can't believe I'm still missing out on another 60+ albums I'd even dare to call essential...
Great site.

Great site.
This is going to be a work in progress for me. So far I have my top 50-60 sorted and now it's proving difficult.
I'm taking it from which albums I have played/listened to the most and still listen to today.
