most of the ones I'm thinking about have already been mentioned.

so for now

the back horn - ningen program

x - blue blood *

[let's be honest, all their albums qualify, but this was THE album. [even though it doesn't feature my favorite songs]]

and perhaps

karen [the vk band] - Reset ~a revolving lantern~

In VK

Dir en Grey - GAUZE

LUNA SEA - Image, Eden, Mother, Style (fuck yes, all 4)

deadman - no alternative

BUCK-TICK - Darker than Darkness

I'm sure something by Kuroyume and Malice Mizer should also be up there

And I'm not quite sure, but I feel like... even if I won't mention an album specifically, Ayabie's old stuff (Ryouhei era) seem to have quite affected the scene

As for the rest of jrock, I have to admit I don't know the whole thing so well, but

Shiina Ringo - Shouso Strip, Kalk Samen Kuri no Hana

NUMBER GIRL - Sappukei, NUM-HEAVYMETALLIC

And ART-SCHOOL's Requiem for Innocence is possibly the catchiest, most ridiculously emo thing I've ever listened to, coming from any scene, genius

And I'm sure there are a lot of old classics I'm not that familiar about, like BOOWY or something

@Arithmetica, I see only You remember about Aliene Maφriage, Eliphas Levi and Madeth gray'll that are my types too. Surely I'll be able to agree with more of Your old kotekote/v系 examples in future, when I'll just listen to more such beautiful music... :D

I'll show my own poor list of greatest Japanese albums, landmark releases that most influenced into Japanese music business. Surely it's never complete, 'cause there's always something else to discover, but for me most important albums in history are at this moment:

2188.jpg14377.jpg18373.jpg

Aliene Maφriage - Les Soirée 夜??舞??会/断罪??章~神罰篇 (1999)

D'espairsRay - Coll:set (2005)

Dir en grey - GAUZE (1999)

Dué le quartz - BEST ALBUM (2002)

Eliphas Levi - リデル??赤??巻物 (1998)

Gackt - MARS (2000)

GazettE - NIL (2006)

ギルガメッシュ - 13's reborn (2006)

Janne da Arc - アルカディア (2004)

LAREINE - BLUE ROMANCE~優????花????狂??~ (1997)

Luna Sea - IMAGE (1992)

Madeth gray'll - Lucifer ~魔境??映る呪??れ??罪人????生命??終焉~ (2000)

MALICE MIZER - merveilles (1998)

雅-miyavi- - ??雅楽】 -gagaku- (2002)

Raphael - mind soap (1999)

RENTRER EN SOI - ゆり???? (2004)*

Versailles - Lyrical Sympathy (2007)*

X JAPAN - Blue Blood (1989)

*I know, this both releases are only mini-albums, but I can feel, they're more important than "Sphire-Croid" and "NOBLE". In case of ReS, "Yurikago" and "Cinema Cradle" - DVD connected to this release with such songs like "Sincerely", "Fallen" and "Re-birth" are some from biggest hits of this band, best songs and tracks that are one from most often "exported", first discovered Japanese songs through European and American people. If Satsuki, Takumi and rest didn't record "Yurikago", they might never do such big career as they did. That's first. And about Versailles... It's almost the same problem. "Lyrical Sympathy" just started this big group, people were very excited because of members... it looked almost like super-group at all with Hizaki, Jasmine Yuu and Kamijo... I've got no idea, how to explain it better :-/

Kagrra, - San

Merry - Modern Garde

Sigh - Hail Horror Hail

Mono - Hymn of the Immortal Wind

Boris - Akuma no Uta

Unholy Grave - Crucified

Sabbat - Karisma

Magnesium - Time Tells No Lies/Over the Rainbow

Abigail - Intercourse and Lust

Dir en Grey - Macabre

Rentrer en Soi - Megiddo

Mucc - Antique

Disclose - Nightmare or Reality

Framtid - Under the Ashes

Gauze - Fuckheads

Envy - Insomniac Doze

Gazette - Disorder

S.O.B. - Don't Be Swindle

There's a lot more I would like to mention, but it'll become a little too much. But that's some at least.
