The Who - Who's Next: This album made me appreciate how great rock music truly sounded.
Slint - Spiderland: I was quickly turning against alternative music, all the college rock bands were signing to major labels & the 80's left me with a bad taste. But this album was totally different from what I was watching on MTV, reading in Spin & listening to.
Sebadoh - III: Made me swear my allegiance to indie rock.
Lucinda Williams - Car Wheels On a Gravel Road: Filled in an era where I grew disillusioned to indie rock (just as I did with alternative) & didn't want 'image' but honest good music.
Radiohead - Kid A: Rock isn't dead, it's just growing up.
These are just from memory, their probably were albums that meant more to me at the time, but this is all I can remember for now.
