Jack Rose's Kensington Blues from 2005 again for the subgenre is seen to be a very important album for it's genre and launched a lot of guitarists in it's wake.
Agree about Jane Doe. Kurt Ballou's production deserves a special mention as well, he's been involved with a lot of great albums including Nails, Torche, Old Man Gloom to name a few.
Royal Thunder - CVI
Earthless - From the Ages
Black Moth - Condemned to Hope
Mars Red Sky - Stranded in Arcadia
Pallbearer - Heartless
My Sleeping Karma - Tri
I don't like bandying around words like "classic" but I certainly like these albums as much any anything else I've been listening to in the last 40 years.

War on Drugs - Deeper Understanding & Lost in the Dream
Kurt Vile - Wakin on a Pretty Daze
Super Furry Animals - Phantom Power. Peak SFA OK
Mastodon - any album. Taking metal to another level
Boards of Canada- Geogaddi. Creepy, the sound of the zone between sleep and awake.
Pallbearer - Heartless
The Horrors - Primary Colours
Radiohead - In Rainbows. A classic in every sense
Loyle Carner - Yesterdays Gone. My favourite hip hop album since the 90’s
Mark Lanegan Band -Gargoyle. He’s maturing like a fine vintage wine
Portishead - Third. Stunningly good, excellent avante garde guitars
PJ Harvey - Let England Shake
Gwenno - Le Kov. I love this album. Celtic kraut pop.
Mistabishi - Drop.
Midlake Van Occupanther is also a great shout.
I'd add The Hazards of Love by Decemberists in a similar vein.
The Avalanches - Since I Left You
Florence - Lungs
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to
Permission To Land by The Darkness is a perfect hard rock album. Counts as post millennium too. The opening 5 songs are as strong as any of the other classics of the genre, Last Of Our Kind isn't far off neither.
Game of opinions innit!

Bon iver's 22, A Million and Bon Iver, Bon Iver also have to be on any sensible shortlist. I also agree with The National's last 4 records too, and it looks like their new one should be briiliant too, based on the songs released so far.
And American Idiot is still fantastic 15+ years on.
I want to say Ryan Adams' Cold Roses too, but I'm feeling a bit iffy on that of late, for obvious reasons.
U2 - All That You Can't Leave Behind
Shakira - Laundry Service
Evanescence - Fallen
Muse - Absolution
The Killers - Hot Fuss
(And if I had to pick one as the classic album of the 21st Century so far, it would be Laundry Service! Sorry . But it is... )

All genuine classics. ATYCLB is as good as Joshua Tree and Achtung Baby imo - absolutely their 3rd best album, just in front of Unforgettable Fire
