Well, what is the question of this topic, really?
Cuz if you're saving these ten albums from ultimated destruction at the end of the world, it would really have to be representative of the human race.
So, uh...
"Headhunters" by Herbie Hancock
"The White Album" by The Beatles (Yes, both discs)
"Kid A" by Radiohead
"The Rite of Spring" by Stravinsky (yes, I know, not exactly an album)
"Lateralus" by Tool
"We're only in it for the Money" by Frank Zappa
"De-loused in the Comatorium" by The Mars Volta
"Yanqui U.X.O" by Godspeed You! Black Emperor
"The Rotter's Club" by Hatfield and the North
"Hosianna Mantra" by Popul Vuh
I feel that while some of these are not necessarily my favorite discs, they best represent what humanity is all about in their own respective way, and provide the best range of musical variety.

It's got to be slow
Taking love the only way
It's got to just flow
Making love and taking time to let it grow
