Hybrid Theory
Linkin Park
Disclaimer: No, I was not swayed or paid by my Linkin-Park-stan boyfriend to say any of this.
Truly is the epitome of "sounds like nothing else I've ever heard before," and it's a sound that can't be replicated by anyone else. It's not necessarily a sound that's really for me, but massive respect to Linkin Park for paving the way for such a creative combo of rap and rock. This sums up the year 2000 pretty well (sure, I wasn't alive yet, but just take my word for it).

Surfer Rosa
Pixies
Pixies are my dad's favorite band of all time and growing up he tried very hard to put me on them, but I was a stubborn preteen who thought Fall Out Boy was the peak of all rock. He'd be very frustrated to know that a ton of the bands he tried to put me on in my formative music-listening years are now some of the best artists to sum up my taste (70s-80s new wave and indie, 90s alt rock, etc).
"Gigantic" is super nostalgic wow. My sister would repeat the chorus over and over again when she was little and I remember the song was in an Apple commercial that my dad recorded on the DVR to show everyone in my household that a Pixies' song was on TV (also literally Phoebe Bridgers was the star of the commercial and I never knew until last year. She's been living rent free in my head longer than I even remember).
I do have a bias for Doolittle (which hopefully makes its way in this rotation soon), but I can definitely see how Surfer Rosa is super influential in developing gritty indie rock, especially as a debut album.
