As a kid I would say: R&b oldies or lowrider oldies. As a teen I would say third eye blind and 80s pop and rock.The cure,soft cell,morrrisey/smiths and stuff playing on the radio between 99 and 03.Its hard to sum up with just one album. When everyone was singin snoop and dre I was all what the f**k is that? hahaha

Not my first album bought but it was my first cassette bought for my first walkman in 1985. I still think it's a bloody good Pop song and have the album on CD. Sue me:

I'm 16, so I guess all of the music I'm listening to now is the music of my childhood. I tend to look a few years back, when I was just getting into music as the music of my childhood, the stuff I look back and sometimes cringe at but still love. It was that period where I knew absolutely nothing about music (I still know noting in the big scheme of things) and everything was foreign and I was so ignorant of everything. For example, the first time I heard Reel Big Fish, I was blown away. I thought "Wow! I band that plays rock music with trumpets and horns! This must be the most original and groundbreaking band ever!" Boy was I wrong... But I love those memories.

I started out listening to a lot of popular pop punk bands, namely New Found Glory and Green Day. I also listened to Billy Talent a lot as well. Then later I discovered ska, starting with Reel Big Fish and from there started a long period of only listening to ska. I later started listening to a lot of classic rock from the 60s and 70s, mostly Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. I went through many individual phases, only listening to a few bands of a certain genre for a long time then moving on to the next, while occasionally revisiting old ones (I still do that today, but I don't really get stuck on a few bands, I try to explore every part of any genre and expand my tastes). Later I discovered System of a Down and Dillinger Escape Plan, which started a phase of only listening to hardcore music.

I'm still a child but some artists I heard growing up without really being into music were

The Beatles
Queen
Otis Redding
Talking Heads
Elvis Costello
Bob Dylan

Pretty well known stuff but they all sort of cemented my love of rock and the stuff that I listen to now

^That's a great list compared to what I listened to back in around 1st-3rd grade, although I'm still only 16.

Here's a preview:
