What was the first band that you really "got" into?

Beatles were the gateway drug to great music for me. Went from listening to top 40 to Beatles to the good stuff

Linkin Park

>>74555238
yup

>>74555191
Green Day and Eminem

My Chemical Romance. Bring the hate.

>>74555191

I want to say Pink Floyd around when I was 18-20.
I heard Dark Side when I was in highschool and thought
It was a beautiful album but I didn't start really getting
Into other artists and listening to them intently until I was
a bit older. I sat down and listened to Floyd's discography
learned they were a very versatile band with different sounds
and have been in love with them every since

Radiohead was mine. Chronologically.

Needless to say, after Pablo Honey and The Bends, OKC blew my goddamn mind...

...but that was years ago.

medalliga :-DDD

>>74555191
I honestly don't know nor remember. I never get into bands, I always like few songs of the same band and I span out a lot from genre to genre.

The Clash
Buddy Holly

>>74555299
why do you write like this

Lana del rey. Fuck.

The Beatles, around... 11. I had started playing classical piano at around 6, but while I had listened to most of it by then, music had never really gotten to me, though I did enjoy Earth Wind and Fire as well as Marvin Gaye for some really odd reason. I guess it's kinda poetic that the first one that broke through with me was I Saw Her Standing There and then on music was something I fell in love with and it was more than just what I listened to because I played piano. Afterwards, it was probably The Who. Nowadays my taste has gotten all over the place, but those three still influence my taste in one way or another; despite the fact I've been gigging as a jazz pianist/bassist for a while now (turns out, the money is actually quite decent for someone in college, and I can have some fun doing that). That said, I still want to start a band with all sorts of influences - from prog to breakbeat.

Nine Inch Nails

Trent got me through my hard times when I was a teenager.

radiohead get memed on for being pleb experimental music but i will always be grateful to them for getting me further in to music

>>74555191
first band that I listened to the whole discography of was Arcade Fire but around the time I was more into Radiohead (I basically just listened to The Bends, OKC, Kid A, and In Rainbows on repeat)

I listened to all of The Clash's discography after I heard Death and Glory in one of the EA Skate games

Radiohead, but wasn't many years ago. A lot of times I wish I hadn't got into music at 16

Pink Floyd when I was 14.

Probably Peter Gabriel and Sigur Rós. And I guess the Beatles too at like 11

green day and blink 182

Joanna newsom, still love her work with all great albums

>>74555191
The Prodigy when I was 13, then Pendulum a little later on, those are pretty much the first two bands I majorly got into

They Might Be Giants. I was hanging in my cousin's room just hanging out with him and reading the Animaniacs and Ren & Stimpy comics he had.. good times. Anyway ,he put on their album "Lincoln" and within the first five songs I knew that if they had any other albums I absolutely had to hear them.

>>74555191
Ween, and then King Crimson.
Technically the Beatles as well

>>74555191
YMO, New Musik, Stereolab

>>74555191
Honestly? Probably the Barenaked Ladies.

>>74555191

We talking actually good music or does high school count?

Because back in high school i was all about Brand New/Thrice/Circa Survive. I don't listen to any of them anymore, and in 2010 i "discovered" Radiohead (of course i had heard of them before) and played In Rainbows every single day. Love pretty much all their records, but In Rainbows comes out on top for me, even before Kid A and OK Computer.

Radiohead and Pink Floyd when i was 15. Nirvana and Death grips when i was 16.

>>74557048
Same

I got Good News, and it was good, I got Moon & Antarctica which was mindblowing and then I torrented their entire discog and that was the first torrent I ever downloaded and the last time I ever downloaded an entire discog at once

>>74557048
>>74557128
What are Modest Mouse's good albums?
I listened to We Were Dead Before... many years ago and it was very, very boring.

Guns N Roses or Metallica, don't really remember

>>74555191
kanye west

srs

i fell in love with him during graduation era when i was young

>>74557195
Moon & Antarctica and Building Nothing Out of Something are my favourites.

Lots of people like Lonesome Crowded West the best but it's super eclectic and there are a handful of tracks on it I don't like even when I considered myself a Modest Mouse superfan, stuff that should have been b-sides or outtakes, the best tracks are outstanding though

>>74555191
The beatles. That was the first music I ever really listened to. That was literally all I listened to from when I was 8 or 9 to when I was 12 or 13, every day

>>74555191
It wasn't a band, it was Tim Hecker. I started with Mirages, which has become my favorite album.

Smashing Pumpkins

Had all albums, sought out all B-Sides, live recordings, etc, etc.

white stripes

>>74555191
Ween somewhat, friend recommended me the mollusk and i checked out a few of their other albums at first. Thats when I started listening to full albums at least.

King Crimson was the first artist I really thoroughly explored, and theyre what got me acitvley looking for new music

>>74557363
Modest Mouse for me too.
I listened to Lonesome Crowded West and Moon & Antarctica recently and I always thought I preferred M&A too but LCW for me just had a lot more unique tracks and variety. Still love both though.

>>74555191
gorillaz, duh

>>74557547
>using the word duh

>>74557516
Ugly Casanova's Sharpen Your Teeth is pretty far up there too, if you haven't heard that yet check it out. It's very oddball, everything on it feels "risky" and different, it reminds me of Omar Rodríguez-López's solo albums in a way and hardly qualifies as indie rock at all, i'm not sure what you would call it

>>74557195
Moon and Anarctica is a good starting point. Then Lonesome Crowded West. Then This is a Long Drive (fun fact: if I ever kill myself it'lol be to this album)

>>74557698
*it'll This is what I get for phoneposting

For me it was Frank Zappa, Beefheart, Ween. Good times.

I don't remember the exact band but I remember being really into Depeche Mode, Green Day and R.E.M early into high school, they were the first bands I really looked into, my gateway into the stuff that came later and probably the reason why I still like 80s and 90s music a lot more than music from other decades. I remember listening to some of The Beatles before that thanks to my dad and sister but never really got into them until later.

When I was a teenager, I used to listen to top 50 hits, then I listened to a full album for the first time (Meteora - Linkin Park) , then I listened to their whole discography, but I was still a pleb. After some months I was listening to Nirvana and lots of shitty and generic bands from the 90s.

Everything changed when I listened to Rubber Soul by The Beatles for the first time when I was 19. That was music, pure music, I just couldn't believe I was actually enjoying something so old. I stopped watching music videos, I deleted all the songs I used to like. I just couldn't listen to anything but The Beatles. Everything I've heard before started to sound like garbage. So my only choice was to listen to similar bands from the same period (The Mamas & The Papas, The Velvet Underground and etc). I was fascinated by the 60s. I listened to In The Court of The Crimson King before it was /mu/core. I did LSD, Shrooms, I was slowly becoming a modern hippie but then I got a job and became a normal man, but I still love The Beatles and the 60s.

>>74555191
blink 182, i know i know...

Rise Against probably. Still like their first two albums and SATW.

>>74557128
my older bro started me with LCW and I thoroughly enjoyed it. looked into them some more and yeah
>>74557195
start with lonesome crowded west, if you want more raw sounds, go with This is a Long Drive for Somebody With Nothing to Think About, if you want poppier go to Good News for People Who Love Bad News, if its perfect, go to the Moon and Antarctica. theres a lot of good MM records, the earlier the rawer. I should make a chart for this shit

kind of Linkin Park, but I started listening to them in 2001 so it was just Hybrid Theory + Hybrid Theory EP (for the LP Underground cool kids).

Rage Against the Machine was the first time I really dove deep into an existing discography (even if its only 4 LPs)

>>74556139
This exactly happened to me

daryl hall and john oates when i was 10, and pretty much any funky 70's group

>>74555191
"got into" would be Metallica when I was 10-13

Really got into would be The Beatles, Megadeth and Black Sabbath at around 15~

Became fucking obsessed, meaning not just discog but also basement tapes, B-sides, interviews, everything I could find, was Nirvana at around 16 or 17, still am a little obsessed but not as much at 20.

>>74555191
Nirvana. I don't listen to them nearly as much as when i was 15 but still revisit from time to time for nostalgia

Billy Joel was the first guy I got into then I saw a live show on tv of ELO and instantly fell in love with everything they did. Then Queen.

Death grips because melon

I know it's stereotypical but Linkin Paek was the first band I got into as a pre-teen.

I thougt radio pop and radio christian were the only genres that existed until I went on youtube for the first time and listened to "What I've Done". Blew my mind. I ravenously consumed their albums after that.

I was so happy that I'd finally found my niche in music. I thought I disliked music, but in reality i just disliked Christian and Pop music that played on the radio.

I can honestly say without Linkin Park I wouldn't love the bands I love today. Thanks, Chester.

No Doubt

It was Keane actually when I was like 9 or 10. After that I discovered The Doors when I was 11 and pretty much only listened to that, went through their entire discography and then started listening to other bands my parents recommended, like Roxy Music, David Bowie and Led Zeppelin. Then I started discovering my own music, the rest is pretty much history.

Fucking disgusting

Arctic Monkeys

The Clash. My dad is a practically religious Clash fan and raised me on their music/philosophy. For years I was completely elitist about their music, and considered every other band unworthy in comparison.

I still absolutely love them and I'm grateful my dad has good taste. Even though I listen to them leas frequently these days because I overdid it as a young teen, I still know every second of each album, even Sandinista, off by heart.

Bowie was my next obsession, and well in time for his death to absolutely destroy me. My dad never liked Bowie because he was convinced he was a Nazi due to the Thin White Duke stuff (although he admitted some of the albums were great) but he sympathised with me when he died because he had lost Joe Strummer back in the day.

Funnily enough I was late to The Beatles party. I finally caved in and gave their albums a go at age 19 or 20. They are of course the greatest, music doesn't get any better than that. They opened many doors for me to love other things, though. I'm a lot more musically open minded than I was as a young, obsessive Clash fan.

Started seriously listening to music when i discovered Gorillaz.
I branched out from there and fell in love with alternative rock (mainly Nirvana and rhcp back in the day) and now im really into smashing pumpkins.

I didn't care about music until I found Modest Mouse. Pre-2004 Modest Mouse had a huge influence on me and I remember binging their entire discography and thinking "this is the best thing I've ever heard." The rolling rhythms and screech, twangy start stop guitar playing paired with the stream of consciousness monologues really gripped me for some reason and I don't think any band has ever been quite as potent as that first hit again, although I wouldn't say MM is my favorite band today by any stretch. Shame they're shit now...

not a band but nothing,nowhere first music I truly connected to

>>74555191

Jefferson Airplane. Which was really weird since it was the early 00s and I was a teenager. I got REALLY into it, like trading '60s bootleg concert tapes on CD (pre-torrent,) tracking down obscure albums by band members, and I've seen Hot Tuna four times in concert and Starship once. I wanted to see Jefferson Starrship but I kept putting it off for so long Paul died.

Nirvana and RATM firstly

Aesop rock got me into more "experimental" music even if it was entry level af

RHCP definitely was the gateway to good music for me besides the Beatles.
Their old albums from the 80s were bizzare and got me listening to their influences like Captain Beefheart, Funkadelic, Butthole Surfers, Zappa, Sly and the Family Stone and more. Also JF's solo albums.

I'm gonna sound like a huge pleb for saying this, but I had a hard time getting into Kid A at first.
It was too weird for me at the time. Thankfully, "too weird" is no longer a problem for me, [cough cough beefheart cough], but when I was 14 I just couldn't handle the "off-ness" of the sound on Kid A. I think the first time I tried to listen to it I got as far as halfway through the title track and stopped listening.
Eventually I did go back and finish it and it grew on me. I Liked the latter half a lot more at the time, especially Motion Picture Soundtrack.

I've been there. I think I still have Of the Blue Colour of the Sky on my hard drive.

system of a down

Pink Floyd and King Crimson, my dad really liked prog and metal but I could never stand the metal.

Slint
i never starting listening seriously to music until I found out about mu. before that I would only ever really listen to whatever i heard around me and liked. Spiderland blew my mind once I heard it

>>74555191
>Linkin Park
My brother introduced me to them when I was around 8, and even though I was too young to understand what they were singing about, I really liked the sound.
>Daft Punk
The first group that I actually discovered and got into myself, around age 10 or something.
>Headhunterz
When I was 12, Headhunterz (and a lot of other Hardstyle producers) were the shit imo.

>>74580107
I have all the albums

>>74555191
Blink 182, then RHCP
Then I found /mu/ and moved on

>>74562215
Same story with me. I had never heard a full album until I was 18 and heard Dark Side. Some people grow up with parents who hate music and no friends so they never even know about it.

The strokes when I was kinda young, I only liked their first two albums though. I don't really remember anything about their other albums.
Before then I just listened to single songs.

RHCP is still good tho

This is the album that got me into serious music listening. It was the first full album I bought. (This was about 5 years ago, back then I just listened to individual tracks from video games)

>>74561947
People only know them for Only By The Night which I agree is horseshit, or the 2010s albums. They're also fucking terrible. The first three albums are pretty damn solid tho

Tool and Metallica

Those were the days

Judas Priest when I was 14, Supertramp was I turned 18. 'Tramp songs are either so easy a chimp could play them or so technically masterful that you have to listen to them five times in a row.
