The Band That Changed The World For You
- Thread starter popeye
- Start date
that changed for me a few times throughout my life
- guns n' roses, b/c I was an extremely repressed kid w/ no sac. Appetite was the impetus to me getting one.
- grateful dead - yeah, avalanche post-gnr didn't know how to shut off the "sac" and I became an asshole. This music & the associated culture introduced me to a new way of thinking
- delirious? - (band, not eddie murphy's album) after coming out of my drug n booze haze of my late teens & 20s, I knew something needed to change but obviously I wasn't very good at pulling that off w/o replacing w/ something worse. I was curious about the idea of God, but Christianity seemed very detached from reality and out-of-date. Enter stage-left delirious & that all changed.

Pretty much in this order chronologically:
ACDC (stole my brother's LPs -- remember those black discs)
Guns and Roses
Beastie Boys
Public Enemy
NWA
Jane's Addiction
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Rage Against the Machine
P-Funk
Pizzicato Five
Jamiroquai
Eminem
The most influential upon me was probably the Beastie Boys. They matured at about the same rate I did so I could always get into their new stuff.

If I have to choose only one band, I'll go with Pink Floyd. The first time I listened to "The Wall" in its entirety as a teenager was the most blown away I ever felt from an album. Roger Waters is brilliant, IMO.
Also, I was pretty astonished the first time I heard Nine inch nails' "Pretty Hate Machine", since (at the time) it sounded so different from everything else I was listening to.
