I'll try and get this in the right order.
The Human League - Hysteria
The first album I ever got on tape and the first album I ever actually asked for. I think I got it when I was about 6. The Human League were the first band I realised that I loved.
Spice Girls - Spice
I'd never really been obsessive about a group until The Spice Girls arrived.
Aphex Twin - Richard D. James Album
Up until this point I was only really listening to electronic-based music that made it into the charts. This album encouraged me to explore a bit more.
Deftones - White Pony
I was a teenager when this was released and the sound summed up my life so perfectly. I think this was the album that made me want to find something heavier after a while and eventually I got into metal.
Boards Of Canada - Geogaddi
This was a bit like the Aphex Twin revelation but it had a lot to do with the feelings the music created rather than just the music itself.
