To you, maybe none. I think it is quite a bold claim to say that they don't exist today. I have found a huge amount of contemporary bands that I think have just as much, if not more, "artistic validity" than those albums.
It is easy to say that Siamese Dream and Badmotorfinger are better in those terms, but there have nearly been 20 years between then and now. You forget they too had influences and many people like us would have been tearing them down just as we are right now with today's music.
This is coming from someone who considers Siamese Dream his favorite album.
