Well if by classic you mean something that changed something or started something new, then the classic albums of the 2000s would be:
The White Stripes - Elephant
Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand
The Strokes - Is This It
Arcade Fire - Funeral
I'm not talking about music of course, but those three albums generated loads of followers.
Now if you're talking about classic albums in the masterpiece sense, then here comes some of MY classics:
Animal Collective - Feels and probably their next one
Autechre - Quaristice (yes!)
Battles - Mirrored
Black Dice - Load Blown
Boards of Canada - Geogaddi
Double Leopards - Halve Maen
Gang Gang Dance - God's Money
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven!
Liars - Drum's Not Dead
Mouthus - The Long Salt
Out Hud - S.T.R.E.E.T. D.A.D.
Pantha Du Prince - This Bliss
Primal Scream - XTRMNTR
Rubin Steiner - Drum Major!
Sonic Youth - NYC Ghosts & Flowers
Tortoise - It's All Around You
Xiu Xiu - La Forêt
And of course, you will disagree with them (especially with the Tortoise, but I've always thought it was one of their bests), but he, it's personal. And Fuck Buttons will prolly be in that list in one year
