Wow, really tough to narrow down to 10 albums. Here goes off the top of my head, just based off what I was listening to a lot at the time. I'd just put on CDs and jamb along, learning what I could.

Alice in Chains - Dirt
Alice in Chains - Facelift
Megadeth - Rust in Peace
Death - Human
Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss
Prong - Cleansing
Corrosion of Conformity - Deliverance
Stormtroopers of Death - Speak English or Die
Helmet - Meantime

And some more for good measure

Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power
Danzig - III How the Gods Kill
Carcass - Heartwork
Tool - Undertow
Faith No More - The Real Thing

My kids are GenZ and they would cite many on this same list. I'm GenX and would too. Good music is timeless!

At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul
In Flames - Whoracle
Carcass - Heartwork
Cradle of Filth - Midian
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Killswitch Engage - Alive or Just Breathing
As I Lay Dying - Shadows Are Security
Sylosis - Edge of the Earth
The Haunted - Revolver
Dimmu Borgir - Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia
Dark Tranquillity - Damage Done

Yeah my list is well over 10 at this point but c’est la vie.
 
If it was Depech Mode I might have been in with a chance but no, it was KMFDM. Maybe just touring players, I don’t know. They’ve had a decent amount of members .
KMFDM was a German band with an international mix of members, fronted by a British vocalist.
