>mfw people say shit like "How do I get into this band?"
Dude you start with the first album and then go from there, they're fucking ALBUMS. If you didn't like it, you wasted like what, an hour?
Can anyone give me good examples of a band's first album that would actually ruin someone's perception of them, even though the rest of their discog is good?
Radiohead
Talk Talk
Yes
Sufjan Stevens
Girl Talk
My Bloody Valentine
holy fuck what a dumb thread

>Sonic Youth

Devin Townsend, his first album is him taking the piss and fucking around, his second album is one of the most praised albums in prog metal

DG first album got me into them. I really dislike Money Store though. I've only heard those two albums though.

>Chill.
Anyways.
>MBV
Okay, that's grasping at straws, because how many people do you know that have even heard their other albums? If someone knows about MBV at all, it's because they heard about how good Loveless is. It's like the Pink Floyd effect, they're just going to listen to the "t-shirt" albums by default.
>Yes
I disagree. I think my point stands that even if they didn't like the first album, they'd still wonder why everyone likes them so much, and then work their way to the iconic shit. If they're not lazy as ballsack that is. Not to mention its good.
>Radiohead
Got me there.

>Death Grips
Whether you mean their self titled EP or the Ex-Military mixtape, I disagree. I enjoy both of those releases. Money Store is their first full album anyways, and its fantastic.

Fair enough. I feel like if you don't like the first album though, the next few aren't exactly going to light your world on fire.

bjork's first album is $$$
>>69650422
s/t is fucking great though.
>Lightning Bolt
no, you're doing it wrong you dumbfuck
you listen to the best album or two, and then dig deeper if you like them.

An album is a single piece you dipshit, you can listen to them in any order you want. If I like post-rock, I'm not gonna check out no-wave Swans because it's their first album
