I'll give you a few, without knowing your tastes:
Pink Floyd - The Wall
The Floyd's story of the emotional disintegration of a "fictitious" rock star. Stunning music, brilliantly recorded, with lyrics to ponder & explore.
Bjork - Homogenic
My favourite Bjork album, combing ingenious beats & winning melodies. Strange, but accessible.
Mary Margaret O'Hara - Miss America
Similarly strange, but has a more "Country" feel than the above. O'Hara has a genuinely beautiful voice.
Pixies - Doolittle
Powerful, yet melodic songs, with lots of scuzzy guitars.
The Jesus & Mary Chain - Darklands
One of their more restrained albums. More scuzzy feedback-laden guitars, with songs that borrow heavily from the 60s girl groups, in combination with the sleaze of the Velvet Underground.
Maybe a bit mainstream, but let's see where this goes...
