Still LOVE this.

Knew a lot of At The Drive In fans, only related band of theirs I managed to see live was Sparta

I did a massive Sisters of Mercy phase. In fact they were the first band I saw live aged 16 at Brixton Acadamy and I still listen to them a lot nowadays. Though I never got into goth music as it was a bit ridiculous but The Sisters were cool.

Hahhahah, never heard that before. Fucking brilliant!!!

...and it's still awesome now.

+1 for NIN... Was also very into Primal Scream's Screamadelica, kept going back to that record time after time.

I was heavily into the artists who have a subforum here plus Venetian Snares. So ashamed...

LUDD's post made me orgasm and cry simulataneously. And how could I forget to mention the Banshees and Sonic Youth, I was unhealthily fixated with them for long times at various teen stages.

To break it down by age:

Around 15, lots of Nirvana and Nine Inch Nails

Around 16, Nine Inch Nails and Meat Beat Manifesto, along with Aphex and Autechre and those guys. Lots and lots of Coil and NWW.

Around 17, started getting into ambient (SoTL was (still is) a big one), jazz, lots of Hip Hop, Ween, and a whole lot of others

Currently at 18 I'm acquiring a huge love of folk music and a stronger appreciation for Jazz.

These are all unbearably generalized and perhaps partially false, and a lot of music has been left out. But it's a general jist.

9-12: grunge + Metallica + The Tea Party

13-18: Tool, NIN, Pantera, still into grunge

17-18 Skinny Puppy, FLA, Fear Factory, Radiohead, Bjork, Tori Amos, still into Tool, NIN, Pantera

19-present: goddamn near everything... I'm probably into 100 times as many artists as I was in high school, no exaggeration.

My windows 98 music folder full of random mp3's I downloaded from www.mp3.com. I wish I could time travel back to 2001 and watch myself through the blinds and wait for myself to go to the bathroom to take a shower and then sneak into my room through the window and copy that music folder onto a cd-r and then unscrew one of the rolly wheels on my chair and put it in my shoe so that for the rest of my life I would have the nagging feeling that reality broke down on me one day.

13-16 RAP RAP RAP RAP RAP beatles lennon RAP RAP RAP neil young bowie RAP RAP RAP michael jackson, RAP RAP RAP RAP RAP.... (early wu-tang, early mobb deep, dj premier & gang starr, cypress hill, the first snoop album etc.....................)

16-20 Portishead, NIN (manson), Burzum shock, Nirvana, Oasis, Bashung, Gainsbourg, Radiohead, Bjork, Slint; Cocteau Twins, The Cure, Joy Division & still rap... But since 18, little by little, mostly electronic stuff, aphex twin & autechre for the most part (they released so much things).

0-14 (1983-1997) Was into a lot of synthpop, mostly Eurythmics, Michael Jackson and that 'Take On Me' song by Ah-Ha.

14-16 (1997-1999) Mostly into Madonna (Ray Of Light was a huge album for me) and shitty top 40 and dance compilations like NOW and Much Dance.

16-20 (1999-2003) Moby's Play came out and flipped my musical world on it's head; I was obsessed with that album. Also got heavily into Brian Eno's ambient records after hearing 'An Ending (Ascent)' at the end of the film 'Traffic'. Radiohead's 'Amnesiac' was an important record for me at the time of it's release (didn't purchase 'Kid A' until later) Saw the video for Aphex's 'Come To Daddy' in 1999 and was intrigued.

20-Present Purchased 26 Mixes For Cash, which catalyzed an enormous Aphex buying spree; I purchased his entire back catalog over a few months. I had to sell all my video games to keep up with my new passion for this stuff. Started downloading loads of Electronic music using E-Mule in 2003 and Discovered BoC. Autechre released 'Untilted' in 2005 which was my first record of theirs that I heard and it was mindblowing for me! I also saw them live that year (my first big electronic concert)! From there I started getting into just about every genre and finding things I like. Now my music collection looks like this... http://www.discogs.c...rt=artist%2Casc

Got into making my own music in 2008 and now here we are!

NWA

late 80s acid house that was in the charts and I could get in Our Price

early nineties rave that was available in Our Price

rave tape packs

various hardcore/jungle/acid/techno records that I got from the one record shop that sold that kind of thing where I lived

Aphex Twin

I forgot about Primus. They were the whole reason I started playing bass in grade 7.

So, like, my brother was so cool that by age 8 i was already a huge tool, nin, primus, nirvana, WHATEVER fan. i loved music. I even dug on life is peachy. beastie boys, wu tang, fucking all of it.

on the subject of pinkerton, some of the recently released b-sides are really good. this one in particular
