Albums that defined a certain time in your life.

Nirvana "Nevermind"

Teenage angst baby! :D

I must be the oddball here. Which is ironic, because I'm the oddball in real life due to my passion for snakes....and in the snake world, I'm the oddball because I've never been into metal music. :confuzd:


Anyhow...two albums that totally bring me back to my teenage years are Journey's Escape, and Styx's Paradise Theater. I can sing every song, even all these many years later, and any song from either of these albums will send me back in time...

Police - Synchronicity
I burned out two cassettes of that album in college, I played it so much

Ahmad Jamal - Live at the Pershing
One of the finest live jazz recordings ever, in my opinion, really a defintion of my first years in California.

Queen - Live Aid at Wembley '85
Actually, the DVDs of the Live Aid concert. Queen's performance there, commonly referred to as Queen's best live performance ever, made me a huge Queen fan. If I'm having a bummer day, I'll just watch their 17 minute performance for a "pick-me-up". =) Rick introduced me to Live Aid and Queen. =)

Oh yeah...Synchronicity was a great album, too.


I had a cassette that I burned out in college, too. I spliced that poor thing together so many times it was a wonder you could even recognize the music anymore. Mike Olefield's Tubular Bells....AWEsome music! Hehehe...gotta love those good ol' cassette tapes!

Queen live at wembley 1986 was a brilliant concert as well that brings back cool memories of my childhood

My first cd ever: Green Day-Dookie, who remembers the secret song hmmmmm.


Then after that was Metallica-Black album

More current: Necrophagist, BTBM, Becoming the Archetype, any tech metal, ambient, or anything unique. Mars Volta, Turning Machine, Gypsy Kings you name it I probably heard it. Love music what can I say.

Hey Laooda; Mudvayne is awesmoe. i never cared for them, seeing their looks and thinking "oh, another Slipknot-type band.." But I listened to them, and I love their singer's voice; it is almost unbelievable how he sings.
I am not just a metalhead though, by any means, though I Love Slayer, etc. I am also oddly enough a fan of New Wave; alot of it from the 80s was crap, but I love The Smiths, Duran Duran, and OMD to name a few. And Bon Jovi; I adore those guys too; reminds me of being young and sneaking into ym older sis's room to listen to her coveted CDs; Guns and Roses, Poison, to name a few, and so me and my friend could play by sis's boyfriend's off-limits Nintendo!!! I am also a big fan of NIN, KMFDM, Pig, etc.
Hey, who mentioned Faith No More..? My man's favorite band; I never even knew they put out anything besides "Epic", lol, till he came around; their lead singer, Mike Patton, had some awesomely weird side projects, not to mention Mr. Bungle; anyone else know this?
I really like most all music, except I am just not a huge rap fan; I can't stand the repetitiveness and ripping off of others' songs; but I like a Tupac song (just one, forgot the name too, heh.)

Jen, you have awesome taste in music! And haven't I told you that before? lol


And Judy....mmmm, Journey and Styx...that just gave me warm fuzzies.

Dr.Dre The chronic
Nirvana Nevermind
Pearl Jam ten
Snoop dogg Doggystyle
2pac all eyez on me
Linkin park both albums
Whoops almost forgot Dr.Dre Chronic 2001

Freakin' NUTS!!! That's Rob's Fav. too! Mike Patton is his "idlo" or whatever he calls it... :rolleyes: Really, no lie! I think he saw the side project... I remember some stories! Somewhere he's got their live VHS tape! GOOD TIMES! Yea, Mudvane.... I kinda got exposed to it from Rob and his bandies... (I've learned to apriciate "harder" stuff)??? Anyhoo, So I started to really listening and you pegged it. His voive is like no other! So we got the live DVD thing, and yea... he's that good live! Another I've grown to like is Stonesour. (singer for Slipknott)... but VERRRRY diffrent. I'll also throw in some piano classics when the mood strikes! :P Too cool! Tupac... was it California!?!? good jam!:D
