Guns N Roses snickers at those pretenders...

Heh...amazing how my two picks for perfect albums are spoken for before the 15th post.
I don't pick 'DSOTM' because there's a couple of tunes I'm not crazy about, but structally and as an overall package it's very well made. Same is true for 'Meddle' and 'The Wall'. Few artists or bands made albums the way Pink Floyd did in terms of being one complete suite or piece (pretty much every album they created from the third album on was a concept), and I think that's a reason why their albums are so well regarded, while for most other artists and bands it's their singles that get most of the pub.
I'd also give these two albums some consideration...

So I have a fetish for debut albums, **** me.
Nothing wrong with that...some of the best albums ever recorded were debuts (note: these are not my picks for the thread, just highlighting my favourite debut discs).

Riddle me this: How did this thread made it to two pages ... the OP has Blue October listed.
:lol This thread was over for me at post #13, but it's all good.
There are other albums I absolutely adore, like Matthew Good's 'Avalanche', Led Zeppelin's first six albums, Rolling Stones' 'Let It Bleed' and 'Exile On Main Street', Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours', Rush's Signals, 'Permenant Waves' and 'Moving Pictures' and U2's first six studio albums, but I wouldn't classify them as perfect...just all damn good (though 'Avalanche' is creeping closer to that mark for me).
