I'll limit myself to one album per artist.
The Fragile by NIN (probably my desert island album)
The Campfire Headphase by Boards of Canada
Mer de noms by A Perfect Circle
Mechanical Animals by Marilyn Manson (I flip between this and Holy Wood as my favourite MM album a lot)
October Rust by Type O Negative
Adore by The Smashing Pumpkins (for a long time Machina was my favourite Pumpkins album, hence the user name, but nowadays I think I prefer Adore)
Worlds Apart by ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead
Post by Björk (so hard to choose between Post and Homgenic, but picking the Greatest Hits album felt like cheating)
Supernature by Goldfrapp (it doesn't contain my favourite Goldfrapp song - Ocean - but it's my favourite album of theirs)
Outside by David Bowie (Bowie tended to be at his best when he was deemed least successful - Outside and Never Let Me Down are awesome)
It's a Man's World by Cher
