Bizarro is a brilliant album too, you're right - someone 'borrowed' my copy and I still haven't got it back. I used to do a cover version of 'Brassneck' with my old band, though, and it's nice to meet another person who appreciates their growly majesty. Have you listened to much of David Gedge's Cinerama solo project? Some really good stuff there too, a bit more subtle with the guitars and general instrumentation.
Today I'll give you another alternative top five (alternative as in different from my first, some of this stuff is fairly mainstream)
The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes
REM - Up
Morrissey - You Are The Quarry
Stone Roses - Stone Roses.
