Favourite Birth Year's Records

Ok, this might be strange but I'm really interested in. And idk if this topic was already on this forum, I'm truly lazy to check this. You know, I always feel some kind of deep connection with the music which I listen to and which was released in 2001, a year when I was born. When I think about it, I always remember first lines from Porcupine Tree's song "Time Flies" where SW reflects on this connection:

I was born in '67
The year of Sgt. Pepper
And Are You Experienced

That's how I feel it too. Seems like these records have grown up with me and it all seems to make so much sense. Here's my birth year's list - some kind of entry level I guess but this list will definitely be updated for years. Also I will try to add my personal facts related to these records:
(italic for records which aren't on MMA)

Akira Yamaoka - Silent Hill 2 (no doubt my all-time favourite soundtrack)
Opeth - Blackwater Park (third one on my personal Opeth list)
Katatonia - Last Fair Deal Gone Down (the most essential Katatonia album)
Tool - Lateralus (IMHO this was a creative peak for Tool)
maudlin of the Well - Bath / Leaving Your Body Map (I prefer LYBM more than Bath but both are diamonds on the avant-garde metal field)
Converge - Jane Doe (my all-time favourite ANY-core record)
Fennesz - Endless Summer (huh, probably my favourite glitch/IDM record. No one can bring such an awesome sunny atmosphere like Christian did)

Simple question: what your birth year's records do you love and do you feel any kind of that connection which I tried to describe with my poor English?

My favourite band Blind Guardian released their first album and Iron Maiden released my favourite from them as well. Death also released Leprosy which for a long time was the only standard death metal record I owned.

Like you Adam I was born in '88. I'm not sure what records there are off the top of my head from that year that I like but some you mentioned are:

I sneaked in at the tail end of 1989. At this point, a few of my favourite metal sub genres were only in their infancy. I've probably missed some but off the top of my head for metal/metal related releases:

Godflesh - Streetcleaner
Nirvana - Bleach
Sepultura - Beneath the Remains
Melvins - Ozma

Some non metal releases I love from 1989 are:

Pixies - Doolittle
The Cure - Disintegration
Bad Religion - No Control
NOFX - S&M Airlines
The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses
Slint - Tweez
The Offspring - The Offspring
