Sicilians and KID, most of the other suggestions in this thread are junk. (Albin? Really>?)

Very few gambits are completely sound for black. Benko/Blumenfeld gambits being among the few arguable exceptions.
For aggressive openings as black:
- against e4: Sicilian Naidorf or the Dragon (the king-side fianchetto fits with the anti-d4 repertoire)
- against d4: King's Indian Defence, Benko, Modern Benoni
I would like to add against d4 the Dutch as it was designed as a counter attacking opening, and as black against e4 The Dragon is good, two knights defense in the italian (unfortunately you get a lot of Ruy games byt playing 2... Nc6) in the two knights, if white plays Ng5 play Bc5 if you can handle the tactics.
windmill!

two things impressive... and isn't that the Icelandic Gambit or something like that
