Tommy! I am quite surprised that you are not into Leatherface.

Leatherface is quite melodic, though, beneath all the growly vocals.
negative creep:
here's 5 albums from the 90s that i like.
kyuss - welcome to sky valley
tocotronic - digital ist besser
monster magnet - spine of god
mogwai - young team
my bloody valentine - loveless
but that's just what comes to my mind right now. tomorrow it could be other albums, i don't know.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
I always thought that having a Tocotronic album would be kinda cool, the few songs I have heard were pretty good.
But to pick up on Nuisance's posts, it is certainly eye-catching if pretty predictable how rooted in 90's (indie) rock many of us are.
By comparison the non-rock albums are relatively few, as Nuisance said, and when they are occur it seems mostly that the person behind the list is heavily into a particular scene.
All in all it makes sense. I don't think it is a problem really but personally I have branched out somewhat since being enarmoured by "alternative" music.
Though it is a bit difficult to find albums completely free of rock influence, take the Jim O'Rourke album I mentioned. It doesn't have anything to do with rock superficially but it is made by a noted guitarist, same with a lot of minimalism - Fennesz, Growing, Geoff Mullen and so on.
It is just so all-compassing that I think it is inevitable to dominate these kinds of lists, even with the upheaval of the dance scene in the 90's.
