AC/DC: Shake Your Foundations (1985)

The official music video shows AC/DC literally "bringing down the house." The towers (which are, thankfully, not brought down) appear as the backdrop for the band at the end of the video, beginning at 3:03. - JR

Bouncing Souls, The: How I Spent My Summer Vacation (May 22, 2001)

The front cover of the album is innocuous enough; at left is the back cover (click to see a larger version), with New York City in flames, and the World Trade Center being crushed by a giant hand. - JR

Cher: Song For The Lonely

Where to find the Twin Towers:


Cher


It's a quick shot, at 1:58, in the midst of a very watchable music video, that's practically a love note to the architecture of New York City. (Thanks to John Silk for suggesting this one!)

Coup: Party Music

The original cover art, designed between May and June, 2001, was changed from this:

Coup: Party Music WTC cover

...to this:

Coup: Party Music

The release of the album was pushed back to November, 2001. - JR

In an undated article (which I stumbled across in late 2011), "Kodak Moments, Flashbulb Memories: Reflections on 9/11," Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett writes:
The cover for The Coup's Party Music, a hiphop CD, showed two musicians in front of the exploding twin towers. The CD with this cover was to be released in October 2002. They replaced this image, which was intended as "a metaphor for destroying capitalism," with one of a cocktail glass filled with kerosene and set on fire - a Molotov cocktail. One of the songs is entitled "5 million ways to kill a C.E.O.," which seemed to anticipate the accounting scandals that sent stocks tumbling several months later.

Dilated Peoples: Worst Comes To Worst (2001)

Shot priot to the 9/11 attacks, the music videop accompanied the October 23, 2001, release of the album "Expansion Team." The looming towers form the backdrop at the shot beginning at :38; oddly, the towers are not seen in the lengthy shots on the Brooklyn Bridge. - JR

Dinosaur Jr.: Feel the Pain (1994)

There are several shots of the towers, with the first at around :36. Make sure to stick around for the rooftop golfing scene beginning at 3:51. - JR (who adds: "If I hadn't heard about the WTC in this video, I would never have heard of Dinosaur Jr. I like!")

Dream Theater: Lie

Dream Theater: Live Scenes from New York WTC shots
Just to let you know, there are some greats shots of the WTC in Dream Theater's video for "Lie" from 1994.

Wow, there sure are! ... beginning with the very first shot, and throughout much of the rest of the video.

Dream Theater: Live Scenes from New York

Ironically, this 3-CD set was released on September 11, 2001. The cover art, designed in June, 2001, was changed; however, copies do exist (and are quite the collector's item).

The original cover art:
