i was thinking about this earlier. im only just out of being in my mid teens but already there is so much music i used to love and now i rarely listen to.
im going DIGITAL PENETRATION as my album. got me into dance music and ive never looked back.
how about you? lets be nostalgic
significant other
cos im like a chainsaw. what?
a motherfuckin chainsaw. what?
this^^^
tragically...or when my brothers mate gave me a copy of the first wu tang album
.
limp bizkit
papa roach
offspring
audioslave
the strokes- is this it?
Hot Hot heat- make up the breakdown
interpol- turn on the bright lights
actually....
probably either relationship of command, or one of the 1st eels records
I'm 15, so I'm IN my mid-teen years
But 'Everything All The Time' by Band Of Horses has been pretty defining since it came out a couple of years ago.
I wish
that could be mine.
I just didn 't listen to any muso type music in my mid teens.
I was a skater boy so i think probably System of a Down - Toxicity would be quite defining. Maybe Lostprophets - Fake sound of Progress too.
I must issue a ban on all people quoting the 'sk8er boi' lyrics.
It's for your own safety.
iiii would sayyyy
Bloc Party - Silent Alarm
anddddddd
Eels - Daisies of the Galaxy
Eels ive been listening to since about 12 so it means a lot to me.
Blur - Blur
Fatboy Slim - Live at the Boutique
Jimi Hendrix - All of it... I still listen to him quite a bit.
Shine 5 - the brit pop compilation... not gone near that in ages.
Steve Lamaq late on radio one and the mighty John Peel. I use to play them on head phones all tru my teens at night.
this is when I started to get into DJing
so I mostly bought 12"
100 Broken Windows
Idlewild
Arcade Fire - Funeral
Biffy Clyro- Infinity Land
I used to play it constantly.
haha
my teens were all about U2 so maybe War or Under A Blood Red Sky. God, I'm old.
Queens of the Stone Age- Songs For The Deaf
Undoubtedly.
>
100 Broken Windows-Idlewild
Blackened sky-Biffy Clyro
Clarity-Jimmy Eat World
Pretty much the same
minus JEW.
it was only 2/3 years ago
but i'm guessing time will make it Funeral. It's not the best thing i was listening to, but it's definitely evocative of that time.
Relationship of Command
This is my answer for every question on the music board ever, unless it asks for a song in which case it is enfilade :(
hmmm
deftones - white pony
green day - dookie, american idiot
korn - follow the leader
where the cds i loved the most haha
*were
the cds i loved most
deftones white pony
pantera vulgar display of power
offspring smash
yeah, i was one of those kids.
there's no shame in it
:D
Radiohead - The Bends
Nirvana - In Utero
Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie
Garabge - s/t
horray for the "alt rock" i ignored most of the britpop bands completely
mellon collie - sp
unplugged and in utero by nirvana
dookie - green day
smash - offspring
Has to be
The Coral - The Coral or The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow
Bloc Party - SIlent Alarm
Definitely
I think my favourite 2 bands for a few years were
Incubus and Foo Fighters. The albums being 'Make Yourself' and 'The Colour and the Shape'. I can't remember the last time I listened to Incubus now. I don't think I'd be listening to music I do now if it wasn't for them though, so whatever.
Grace by Jeff Buckley
and OK Computer by Radiohead
Siamese Dream
The Hoy Bible - Manic Street Preachers
Yes, I was one of those depressing teenagers. Great album, though.
Holy, even
...
good call
young team
by mogwai i reckon...
Either
"Black Market Music" by placebo which I remember as being one of my first forays into alt rock, or Korn's first album which for me in year 9 was as heavy as it got...ah good times.
Radiohead - OK Computer
wayback we got cable for the first time and I saw the music video for Subterrenean Homesick Alien. Got hooked on alt rock for the first time. After that Placebo followed. Everyou and Everyme.
A combo of:
Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
Pixies - Doolittle
Mudhoney - Superfuzz Bigmuff
Hell id for heroes - Neon Handshake
Biffy Clyro - Blackened Sky
*is
Biffy Clyro
Vertigo of Bliss.
Don't think i'll ever listen to an album in full so many times in one year as i did with this one.
Set me up to get into alot of good bands too.
Some really terrible nu-metal bands
Some good ones included the first Hundred Reasons album and 'The Remote Part' by Idlewild
.
When I was 12/13 it was chocolate starfish by the mighty limp bizkit,
then the strokes - is this it and finally silent alarm - bloc party.
Probably
something like System of a Down's Toxcitity or something like that, I was into that sort of thing
System of a Down at the SECC is still one of my best gigs ever, beaten only by the Flaming Lips and Arcade Fire
Actually now I think about it
That would be early teens, I would go for Up the Bracket by the Libertines as mid teens, I loved (and still do love) that album, I used to play it all the time
Still beats all of the other guitar indie albums by a long long way
either
Free All Angels by Ash, or Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World. Or both!
^yeah!
i adored free all angels. not bad in retrospect, but definately one for me yoof...
then theres 'the holy bible', 'ok computer' (during my gcse's no less), 'the remote part' 'is this it' all of which have been mentioned. then also 'fever to tell'... yeah yeah yeahs wen they were new and exciting. those were the days.
Chutes Too Narrow
Good thread!
Erm, four did, mainly.
Arcade Fire - Funeral
British Sea Power - The Decline of...
Interpol - Turn on the Bright Lights
The Walkmen - Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone
Some good years.
Foo Fighters - Colour and the Shape
Funeral - Arcade Fire
Up The Bracket - The Libertines
You Forgot It In People - Broken Social Scene
Rival Schools - United by Fate
Jimmy Eat World - Clarity
Death Cab For Cutie - We Have the Facts
Dismemberment Plan - Emergency & I
i would say
Muse- absolution was their newest but i still think I listened to Origin Of Symmetry more.
Also- The Music's debut and The Cooper Temple Clause's debut. And all of placebo's output
.
'Seventeen Seconds'
'Unknown Pleasures'
'The Scream'
'Another Music In A Different Kitchen'
'The Undertones'
'Inflammable Material'
i went a wee bit psychedelic...
gorky's - bwyd time/barafundle, the olivia tremor control - dusk at cubist castle, flaming lips - transmissions from the satelite heart.
still love them all. gorky's sitting on the top of my last.fm chart!
QOTSA - Songs For The Deaf
And more concerningly, Feeder - Echo Park.
I was really into mainstream boring indie rock when I was 14/15.
Another one defined by
Silent Alarm. But Funeral by Arcade Fire was nearly as defining
Probably Suede's Coming Up.
Melancoly and the Infinite Sadness...
Smashing Pumpkins.
Lincoln by They Might be Giants and as ashamed I am to admit it; Construction for the Modern Idiot by The Wonder Stuff. Dated.
mew-frengers
Possibly
Def Leppard- Hysteria
Brand New - Deja Entendu
Staind - Break the Cycle
i forgot one..
the air guitar album.
Another 15 year old...
I guess...
Stoner Witch- Melvins
Daydream Nation- Sonic Youth
Of Ruine Or Some Blazing Starr- Current 93
+ anything by Elliott Smith and Daniel Johnston.
...what a happy teen I am.
I listened to Bjork when I was 11
...and never looked back!
Er
Daydream Nation was released before you were born!!!
ah, nostalgia.
Dinosaur jr - green mind.
Soundtracked plenty of drunken teen days and nights.
hahaha
this thread just reminds me how old i am!
Different Class by Pulp.
yeah
you old bastard gav!
System Of a Down - Toxicity
Tool - Lateralus
limp Bizkit- Chocolate Starfish
Deftones - White Pony
when i was 15...
my most played album was "sister" by sonic youth
*sobs as she realises that was five years ago now*
No
Sister 1987 - not 2003
You're right
All copies should have been burnt at New Year '88 and the master tapes deleted.
hahaha
lose
george best
the wedding present.
Properly old...
probably between
freaky styley and ratm for the most loved/played/important records of my early / mid teens.
i played that air guitar album to death too actually, and i was also in love with sailing to philadelphia by mark knopfler... in fact i still am. im gonna listen to it now.
from these lot
Pixies - Doolittle
Nirvana - In Utero
Sonic Youth - Daydream Nation
Rage Against the Machine - RATM
Those got played constantly through my teens. Fun Timez
songs for the deaf aswell
yip yip yip
been there cowboy
Appetite For Destruction
It Takes a Nation of Millions
and Licence to ILL
Would be the mid teen defining albums for me.
People aren't answering properly
You are supposed to state an album that was current at the specified age. I've decided.
Not necessarily
If you listened to predominantly older records in your mid-teens they would have defined those years more than anything released at that time.
Possible truth in your assertion is not relevant
My decision is what matters
Oh
in that case Linkin Park
Nowhere does it say that
apart from where you've just made it up.
Either
Radiohead - Ok Computer, Kid A
ATDI - Relationship of Command
Biffy Clyro - Vertigo of Bliss
Million Dead - Song to Ruin
Led Zep records
umm
I am still in those mid teen years. And it must be Joanna Newsom's Milk-Eyed Mender. Cannot see that changing.
Probably
Disintegration - The Cure
Thousand Yard Stare 'Hands on'
pretty much compulsory to have 'Thousand Yard Stare' written in tipex on your black DMs if, like me, you were an indie kid in Slough in the early 90s...
0-0 after extra time!
ace, i might have to dig it out now!
You've had it t'easy for tooo long!
yay. Another 'Yardie'
broken social scene
self titled
i wish i was a teen when taking the rough with the smooch came out
Smashing Pumpkins 'Siamese Dream'
Pavement 'Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain'
Cypress Hill 'Black Sunday'
Neds Atomic Dustbin 'God Fodder'/'Are You Normal?'
Mega City Four 'Magic Bullets'
Therapy? 'Troublegum'
Levellers 'Levelling The Land'
Weezer 'Blue'
The Afghan Whigs 'Gentlemen'
Beastie Boys 'Check Your Head'/'Ill Communication'
I still listen to them all.
Oh and these guys.......
