I'm not sure if there is already a such thread in existence on this forum, but whatever...
Anyway, this is a thread I've always wanted to see on this forum, this being where you share your favorite albums, much of them all-time favorites and those love dearly and would listen through again any time soon.
As for me, it's a decently big list of music, spanning through several eras in music, from the counterculture music of the 1960's to Progressive Rock and "Krautrock," to Industrial music, experimental Punk and Synthpop, then House music, Shoegaze, Grunge, Britpop and other "Alternative" music (or should I just say, the Zeitgeist 90's and Y2K's).
And the list, of all the albums I love (as of now):

Good choices with the two Pixies albums. I have to be in the right mood to listen to the Velvet Underground.
My list in particular order:
Surfer Rosa - The Pixies
Let it Bleed - The Rolling Stones
Funeral - The Arcade Fire
12 Desperate Straight Lines - Telekinesis
Castaways and Cutouts - The Decemberists
Her Majesty The Decemberists - The Decemberists
Narrow Stairs - Death Cab For Cutie
Rubber Factory - The Black Keys
No Depression - Uncle Tupelo
A Ghost is Born - Wilco
Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - Wilco
You & Me - The Walkmen
Edit:Forgot a few.
Blue Album - Weezer
Pinkerton - Weezer
Boys and Girls in America - The Hold Steady

I haven't really thought about this subject much, but the five albums I've listened to the most are:
Black Sabbath - Sabotage
Death - Human
Iron Maiden - Powerslave
Danzig - II
Judas Priest - Sin After Sin
-
Marilyn Manson:
*Antichrist Superstar

Quick, simple explanation here: The first three are concept albums. They were released in that order. In the opposite order, they are one continuous tale, called The Triptych.
Rammstein:
*Mutter
*Liebe ist für alle da
*Reise, Reise
Disturbed:
*The Sickness
*Asylum
*The Lost Children
*Indestructible
In This Moment:

Kiss:
*Destroyer
*Revenge
*Carnival of Souls
*Monster
*Animalize
*All the Alive albums, especially Symphony.
Nine Inch Nails:

and
(http://www.metalblade.com/us/covers/AmonAmarth-DeceiverOfTheGods.jpg)
That might change ina few weeks, my favourite album always changes every so often.

Edited my list. Here's some changes:
- Added links to songs on YouTube, most of them my favorite tracks from those albums (curious exception: Mëkanïk Dëstruktïẁ Kömmandöh, from Magma, which is the whole album).
- Added two albums I felt was neglected from the list (which I didn't mean to do): Unknown Pleasures, from Joy Division and Daydream Nation, from Sonic Youth.
- Removed Remain in Light, from The Talking Heads. As much as I loved that album, I can't remember everything of what made it so good and why I liked it so much.

It's In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. And that indeed is a great album.
