well, in that case, here's ten more random songs from my top rated...
Labi Siffre - I Got The... (you might recognize the second half of the song as having been sampled in an Eminem travesty)
Beck - Mutherfuker
Dr. Dre - Big Ego's
Smashing Pumpkins - Home (you can download Machina II for free from smashingpumpkins.com)
Howlin' Wolf - How Many More Years
Metallica - The Call of Ktulu
At the Drive-In - Quarantined
She Wants Revenge - I Don't Wanna Fall In Love
Interpol - Leif Erikson
Jedi Mind Tricks feat. GZA - On The Eve of War [Julio Cesar Chavez Mix]

absolutely look up Howlin' Wolf -- to truly appreciate the roots of rock and roll, everyone should be familiar with his work. his best of collection has practically every song that other artists have covered repeatedly, as well as the songs that Led Zepplin egregiously lifted from (Lemon Song in particular)
and with Metallica, you really should only bother with the albums released prior to the Black Album. they jumped the shark with that one -- it's still decent, but nothing compared to the brilliance of Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, or ...And Justice for All
