I'll just stick to the punk/indie stuff.

Into Another -- both "Ignaurus" and "Seemless"

Cave In -- Jupiter

The Ocean Blue -- S/T

Morrissey -- pretty much everything he ever did

Isis -- Oceanic

The Promise Ring -- Wood/Water (fuck the haters, this album is unbelievably good)

Boy Sets Fire -- Tomorrow Come Today

Dag Nasty -- Can I Say

Fugazi -- please don't make me choose.

Lungfish -- "The Unanimous Hour" but it's pretty hard to choose.

Warzone -- "Fight for Justice"

The Jesus Lizard -- Goat

Kepone -- Ugly Dance

Engine Down -- Demure

Q and Not U -- Power

Red Hot Chili Peppers -- Freaky Stylee, Uplift ... , Mother's Milk, Blood Sugar Sex Magic

Quicksand -- Slip

Slowdive -- Souvlaki

Codeine -- Barely Real, The White Birch, Frigid Stars -- they are all awesome

The Mars Volta -- "De-Loused ..."

These Arms Are Snakes -- "Tail Swallower..."

Sunny Day Real Estate -- "The Pink Album" and "How It Feels To Be Something On"

Tad -- "8-way Santa"

Tortoise -- "It's all Around You"

The Catherine Wheel -- "Wishville"

The Llama Farmers -- "El Toppo" -- A totally underrated band

Karate -- "in place of real insight," The Bed is In the Ocean," "Pockets," Some Boots."

Glorytellers -- "S/T"

Ester Drang -- "Infinite Keys"

Snowden -- "Anti-Anti"

Sweep the Leg Johnny -- "Sto Cazzo"

Canyon -- "S/T"

Helmet -- another tough one, but I'm going with "Betty"

Jawbox -- "Novelty"

Shellac -- "1000 Hurts," although Terraform was awesome too

Shudder To Think -- "Funeral At The Movies"

Smog -- "Wild Love" but they are all awesome as hell

Sonic Youth -- "Dirty" and "Sonic Nurse" stick out for me, but you can't deny daydream nation or any of their other stuff either

Superchunk -- "Here's where the strings come in" and "indoor living"

Afghan Whigs -- they are all so good, but "Black Love" was like the summer of 1997 record for me and a bunch of my friends.

I'll think of ten more as soon as I hit send, but this is a pretty good list of my favorites.
