shit... this is a tough one...
i cant just pick ONE, so ill do 5
skid row - skid row
i was like 3 when i first heard it
on my 4th birthday my uncle bought me the tape
its because of skid row that i listen to hard rock
i was a marilyn manson/white zombie/slayer/nin fan by 3rd grade
grateful dead - grateful dead (1967)
i was at a rave and i had taken acid for the first time
i was having a very bad trip so my friend took me to the chill room
the dj in the chill room was playing some massive attack but i couldnt handle it
i needed something else
i sat on a beanbag cause i felt super shitty
my friend went to her car and grabbed her discman
she put the headphones on my ears
skipped to track 7 (morning dew)
and i just closed my eyes and drifted away.
i listened to this song on repeat my enitre trip, by the way.
the dead saved my life (har har)
after the experience i started listening to a lot of psychedelic music
(and SOME jam bands)
beck - mellow gold
when i was a kid i was into heavy music, if it wasnt heavy it sucked.
when my sister bought me this album (summer between 5th and 6th grade)
it really fuckin spun my world around
i realized there was so much awesome/amazing music out there outside of the "heavy" world
bob dylan - blonde on blonde
shit man, if it wasnt for dylan... i dont know
he is a fucking genius
he is revolutionary
ween - god ween satan
so during my psychedelic phase i met this girl who was really into this band called "Ween"
we were trippin balls and she busted on "GOD WEEN SATAN"
i could not stop laughing
especially during IM IN THE MOOD TO MOVE cause all i could picture was this cartoonish Satan with a guitar in a cartoon hell with psychedelic colors
and amps
and he had a band of demons (a bassist, a drummer, and another guitarist)
i remember closing my eyes during this song and just getting this image
and the camera would zoom in and zoom out and tilt to the sides
it was so fucking cheezy hahahaha
i am now obsessed with ween and a lot of "funny" bands
they are so fucking creative and awesome.
