Radiohead, The Beatles and Pink Floyd are arguably the 3 best acts ever (I said arguably, clearly there are many others in the conversation).

So I might save those albums until the latter half of your listening.

Maybe start with The Eagles and 2Pac albums.

Some people like Linkin Park, but if you don’t like the first album you listen to, I wouldn’t even bother with the next, it will sound pretty much the same.

Don’t ask me, I can’t stand them. But…Hybrid Theory is the one people talk about the most.

I didn’t look at your list too closely at first, but I just came back to this and would offer a couple of suggestions if that’s okay.

Regarding Pink Floyd: If you are going to listen to three Pink Floyd albums, choose Dark Side of the Moon, Wish you Were Here, and Animals. Probably in that order. If you don’t like Dark Side…I guess don’t bother with the others. But that album is probably the single greatest of all time when considering both quality AND accessibility. So you will probably like it.

Great suggestions, But unfortunately I listened to all of them and pink Floyd is my fav band, if you could suggest rock albums but calm with great music and not metal it'll be great, I like a good voice and great music

I think my list is pretty solid, but I pulled it from another post I made with a different purpose. Also, it’s my list so it’s biased towards my preferences. For a more global resource, try the ranked list below. This is the best list of top albums I’ve seen, and it spans a lot of genres.

Hybrid Theory is their most successful work and in my opinion their best but Minutes to Midnight is a good starting point if you haven’t listened to them before because it’s a pretty good mixture of all the different sounds they explored during their career and is poppy and easily accessible.
