greatest album of a genre

so, i cant possibly begin to list all the genres in music, but lets try to keep it as broad as possible, like dont make a distinction between 3rd wave ska and UK ska.... just do Ska. but with things like metal and rock, we can get a little more definite, like grunge and classic, or death and 80's/hair.
just start throwing out some genre's and what you think is the greatest album in that genre. do as many as you like.

Hip-Hop: Gravediggaz: 6 Feet Deep.
This is one of those albums I remember hearing when I was a little kid (in the back of my older brothers car.) I was in amazement at how brutal and poetic the imagery was... It haunted me, in a really good way. I've always loved this album...Its NEVER got old. Its one of those albums you can really pull different things out off over time.

As far as live releases go I have a hard time choosing between
Talking Heads: Stop Making Sense My Morning Jacket: Okonokos and Daft Punk - Alive

I think indie rock has disqualified itself as a genre.

I like Lonesome Crowded West more, but along that line of music I think The Pixies' Doolittle is better, even though I don't listen to it nearly as much.
