Since I'm just a baby and music pretty much the latter half of my life thus far has been watered down crap, here is my poor attempt at music released within what I call my music playing years.

Kill to get Crimson - Mark Knopfler
Brave New World - Iron Maiden
Untouchables - Korn
Elephant - The White Stripes
Meteora - Linkin Park
Down II - Down

The list is very short, because I listen to mostly music from people who have been dead for a long time.
