Perfect Albums

[Hail The Wizard!]

It really interests me what albums different people would consider to be perfect. My dad would easily say The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd, my friend would say something like Nespithe by Demilich..
4 of mine would be:
Watching from a Distance by Warning
The Atomic Bitchwax by The Atomic Bitchwax
Monotheist by Celtic Frost
The Black Waltz by Kalmah

What albums would you consider to be perfect?
