Anyway, here are some albums that I think will be appreciated as classics in time:
Muse- Origin of Symmetry
Arcade Fire- Funeral
Coldplay- A Rush Of Blood To The Head (not perfect, but it's mainstream success will ensure that it is remembered)
The Killers- Hot Fuss (again, its one of those albums that people will remember just because of how big it was at the time
Bloc Party- Silent Alarm

Of those, I guarantee none will be remembered as classics save Funeral. Not because it's necessarily better than the others, but because none of the others really have anything near enough the critical acclaim nor the pervasive popular music-geek support necessary to end up classics.
