Thinking a little more on it we can probably change out Divorce for Les Rallizes Denudes' Heavier Than a Death in the Family.
I'd pick another album. Possibly The Caution Appears.
AM is kinda tame.

Not their best, but still cooler than AM.
Not gonna be nitpicky in this thread though, I'm sure we all have tons of albums and genres here that we disagree on or feel they should be included.

Important examples might include:
01 Suicide - Suicide (1977)
02 Solid Space - Space Museum [cassette] (1982)
03 The Residents - Commercial Album (1980)
04 Monoton - Monotonprodukt 07 (1982)
05 Oppenheimer Analysis - New Mexico (1982)
06 Fad Gadget - Fireside Favourites (1980)
07 Wall of Voodoo - Dark Continent (1981)
08 November Növelet - Magic (2007)
09 The Human League - Reproduction (1979)
10 Ensemble Pittoresque - For This Is Past (1983)
Which one of these can we replace with Cabaret Voltaire's The Voice of America?

EDIT- Actually, I'm going to make a synth-punk list, put Suicide on that, and replace them with Cabaret Voltaire.

I'm late on this, but in what universe are the Red Hot Chili Peppers more essential than Funkadelic? Like, in a contest between maybe the greatest American band ever on one side and, "Hey guys we're from California, California, shirtless rapping, California, I guess our bass player's pretty good, drugs, California," on the other, what kind of terrible human being picks the second one?

In the universe where name recognition counts and elitist douchebags like us are on short supply.

I feel like most (or, a lot of) people know Funkadelic, but you're right that more people know RHCP.

Honestly we could have a whole category of just P-Funk albums and that would be fine with me.
