Throbbing Gristle - 20 Jazz Funk Greats is the premier party album
Maybe in the living room, but you've got to have DOA 3 playing in the private area. Everyone should have sex to Blood on the Floor at least once. :D

*Takes names*
In the meantime, I got me here my list of to-buy-first albums :).
Hmmm...I do wonder if I should risk buying special editions.
Hmmm...not really interested in music vids, though.
Keep'em coming, folks.
Re-read the note at the end of my first post, plz. Don't tell me what you think is shit, just give me what you think rawks :). I'll waddle through the music eventually and decide. Thanks :D

Interpol.
Just get out there and now and buy both their albums.
Turn on the Bright Lights first though.

You're going to have to do a lot of combing, because these suggestions so far are a saucy mixture of excellence and utter shit - and I'm going to do nothing to change that with my own set of entirely subjective personal favourites.
NEVER LEAVE HOME WITHOUT
The Cure - Disintegration
The Sisters of Mercy - Floodland
Slowdive - Souvlaki
Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas
The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow
Talk Talk - Spirit of Eden
The Velvet Underground & Nico - s/t
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love
This is kind of a scatter-gun way of finding albums you'll enjoy though, I think. It might be easier to look at what you already do the electric mambo for (don't lie to yourself and pretend you like everything - that is not the way to true love) and work from there. Find your favourite album of the moment and assume it is a tree. Like a tree, it will have branches. These could be links and connections to other groups via the membership of the original (ie; Robert Smith playing guitar for Siouxsie and the Banshees) or simply bands which belong in the same area or, if you're a tragic hipster, "scene".
Once you've found a few of those you can repeat the process, based on the ones you like. You can do this forever! After a while you'll be starting with some 80's post-punk no hopers and ended up at Miles Davis. Hopefully picking up a few exceptional records along the way.
You can find your own way of doing things, of course; but "asking random dudes on the internet to list some albums they like" could give you a low success rate for things YOU PERSONALLY will enjoy.

Trust me, Pazzy, I have already contemplated this idea. I merely would like a few ooohs and aaahs from the TTLG Crowd which has not steered me wrong so far. From there, I shall rise like the Phoenix and fly away! :D But thanks anyways for the advice and the sexy names :).

Check out Trust or Things We Lost in the Fire by Low, if you're ever feeling depressed, which seems a matter unbecoming to a duck.

London Calling is such a great album that everything else ever recorded kind of pales next to it.
