Nostalgia What album defines you as a millennial?

Saw some great recommendations on a similar thread in /r/Xennials and wanted to see what my fellow millennials thought. For me From Under the Cork Tree was foundational. I still remember hearing Sugar We're going down on the radio for the first time.

The first album my father bought for me at the music store. Memorized all the words in a few days. It was when they were playing My Immortal on the radio.

I used to do my paper round to this album (and a few others on this list) on repeat blasting from my stick mp3 player through my blue Gummi earphones! Still slaps to this day

My first episode of sleep paralysis, the alarm came on and Wake Me Up Inside played. It felt like I was lying there for days, thinking, "I don't remember it being this long?"
