What band got you really into music

Most people I meet that are really into music have a certain band...or even a certain song...that just clicked with them, resulting in hungrily devouring music from that day forward. What is it for you guys?

I got really into music when I got my hands on a copy of Siamese Dream by the Smashing Pumpkins. The first thing that hit me was the tone...the guitars in that album blow my mind to this day. They are HUGE. It started a continuing obsession with the Smashing Pumpkins (to this day there is always a song they have that I can relate to and speaks to me no matter what I am going through). It also started a continuing obsession with music.

On a side note that album also inspired me to pick up a guitar...I had to know how those sounds were being made...
