Default The First Song You Heard from Your Facorite Artist(s) and the Aftermath

Could be an interesting thing. There's always a time before you've discovered any certain music that you now couldn't imagine life without.

The first Sonic Youth track I heard was "The Sprawl" and it drew me in with ease. I went on from there to listen to Daydream Nation and find myself amazed. The blend of textural noise and indie rock on that album opened me up to deeper experimental noise stuff. It was a while ago, and like nothing I'd ever heard

First Burzum track I ever heard was this beauty:



And I instantly became a fan. I hadn't heard all that much black metal at the time, but I still knew this was it's own beast, with an approach I had never really heard before.


The first AJJ song I heard was American Tune, and if you're familiar with it I think it goes without saying the initial reaction is "wtf am I listening to?" Wasn't long before I gave the rest of the album a listen, and with that I became hooked. Knife Man is still my favourite of their releases to this day, probably because it was the first one I listened to.

This is *very* conventional - the first song I Heard by my favorite band was "I Want to Hold Your Hand" way back in the year 1963. I heard the song on the radio in Sweden which I was visiting in the summer on my vacation (I lived in the USA at the time, even though I am a Swede by birth).

I decided that I wished to hear more of the Beatles. So I soon noticed "She Loves You" on the radio back "home" in America ac while later (in the spring of 1964). The Beatles, along with the Dave Clark Five and the Beach Boys, were my first favorite musical artists. I grew up in the suburbs of America during the 1960s. Nowadays I am an old fart!

I think the first AJJ track I heard was "Survival Song" and I wasn't a huge fan initially. It was something off that album. I relistened to it after I started listening to Mischief Brew so much. rip MB

1969. Nine years old. Turn it up really loud and listen when JPJ comes in with his bass. Hard rock was knocked on its ass once this came out.

All of you modern recording dudes, Page and Eddie Kramer did that middle section using an 8 track analog mixer and tape recorder.

No disagreements there, but that's Burzum's charm. It's some of the most hypnotic stuff in the genre.

That's the point.

Hearing this song sent me down the rabbit hole looking for more rap rock bands or as I later came to find out what's considered nu metal. I felt like it was the perfect marriage between two genres that I listen to. It's pretty funny how I used to introduce people to Linkin Park that either hated rap and only liked rock and vice versa but they all loved Linkin' Park. I ended up bridging the gap between genre faithful from casual listeners that I knew.

Thought it sucked, checked out Safe As Milk a few months later, checked out TMR again, and the rest is history.

Kardusen off of "Yes I Am" was the first track I ever heard from pg.lost and from that point onwards, they released Key which I now have a vinyl copy of, and simultaneously became the band I'd be able to be known for loving the most. They've constantly blown me away with everything they've done, and I hope they continue to do so.
