Well, since I don't feel like being productive, I've made the obligatory list of favorite albums of all time. Sorry if this isn't interesting.
in no particular order:

Wilco-Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
This album got them dropped from their label and if I had to recommend one record to everybody, this is it. Jeff Tweedy is a genius.
Beatles-Rubber Soul
I was listening to this in the back seat of someone's car one time and decided it was all I wanted to listen to for the rest of my existence.
Against Me!-Acoustic EP
The hidden track is among my favorite songs ever.
Ben Folds-Ben Folds Live
This album is a great performance and has a lot of meaning to me which I won't share here.
Postal Service-Give Up
I only heard this recently but the lyrics are really remarkable...even if it can sound like a video game.
Ben Kweller-Sha Sha
I find my self listening to this entire album start to finish and realizing that I sang along with every song.
John Scofield Band-Up All Night
Modern funk/jazz at its finest.
Radiohead-Hail To the Thief/OK Computer
These albums just amaze me. I think Thom Yorke might be Mozart born again.
Sigur Ros-Agaetis Byrjun
Some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard and I can't understand a word of it.
Green Day-Nimrod
My first Green Day experience was with this album. It's fairly long and has got a lot of variety on it for a band of that type. One of the few albums that can make me dance.
Paul Simon-Graceland
Graceland came out around the time when I was born and it must've been played a lot around me because I love it.
