If you ask me this today (an uh... you did) I'd say Pixies.
But a decade ago? Nirvana.
Discovering Nirvana meant discovering an entirely new direction in music for me - the first band I listened to because -I- discovered them and not because I heard it around home and adopted them from a family member.
Without Nirvana I might not have ever gotten to a Pixies album...
But yeah, today I don't break out the old Nirvana albums much. Pixies though? All the time. They stuck with my tastes a lot longer so they get it here, if not by much.
