records that changed your life
1. beatles-everything.......my mom is a super fan. heard them from the time i was born and they made me love music at an early age
2. kiss-destroyer......the kid next door gave me this record. i must have played it 10,000 times. i was probably 7 at the time
3. w.a.s.p.-fuck like a beats 12inch.......one of the first records i bought with my own money. loved it so much
4. slayer-hell awaits.......turned me from a metal guy into a "thrash" metal guy. i was in 7th grade maybe. maybe 8th
5. dead kennedys/black flag...bought them at the same time cuz i wanted to know what "punk" was about. they changed everything
6. agnostic front-victim in pain and bad brains roir sessions.......my first "punk" friend in 9th grade. he was the first skinhead i ever knew. he
gave me a tape of these 2 albums and it changed everything yet again. these records made me cut my hair about a year later.
7. sheer terror-just cant hate enough......while i dont think its the best record they did, it had the biggest impact on me. when i got this, it was
exactly what i was about at the time.
thats it for now
you come at the king....you best not miss

I'll point out key records at various turning points in life in order. In case anyone cares...
Michael Jackson - Thriller: Made made me truly realize my love for music at a very young age.
Run DMC - King of Rock: My introduction to hip hop. I got picked on in school alot for being a white kid listening to hip hop. I never saw what the
big deal was me a suburban kid listening to music made by black men rhyming about the streets. I still dont.
Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil: Introduction into Heavy Metal. Scary, fun, loud, and hard. I absolutely loved it.
Poison - Open Up And Say Ahh: Album made me feel good, and this is when I realized I wanted to play drums.
Sick Of It All - Just Look Around: This album is what made me decide I loved Hardcore, past the few songs I had heard. As ChrisReed83 said, this is
the album that sent me on my path I'm still on (15) years later. This record still continues to inspire me.
H2O - self titled: Hardcore had a melody and still captured an intensity like never before. Noones live show could be touched when these guys toured
for this album. Watching Toby made me decide someday I wanted to try out being a front man. And it started me off on going to shows on a consistent
basis.
Diana Krall - Love Scenes: I became such a huge jazz fan when this record hit. I had listened to it on and off thru out the years but this album did
it for me. Plus I could never appreciate smooth jazz until this record. Jazz became and is still my second or third most listened too style of music.
This album got me laid in the late ninties. 
Dropkick Murphys - Do Or Die: Never heard anything like it before or since in Punk. It changed the way I saw myself and have a greater appreciation
for friendships.

the first Motorhead and Iron Maiden album as I was in my teens when they got released and it made me go fully into "alternative" music.
AF's, CroMags and Warzone's early stuff, and the early SE HC stuff like YOT, Minor Threat, Wide Awake, Aware,... as it came out in those famous 80s
and my full HC start.
Van Morrison's "Healing game" in 1997 as it came at the perfect time. Kind of right fuel for specific set of mind back then (besides my daily HC dose
ofcousre)

Public Enemy - Apocalypse 91 The Enemy Strikes Black (this one also introduced me to metal with the Anthrax version of Bring The Noise. I remember
turning this thing WAAAAY down when my parents were around cuz I was afraid of what their reaction would be to the swearing. Haha.)
Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction (probably the worst of the best Megadeth albums, but it was the first thrash record I bought, before this it was
all GNR and Poison and shit like that)
Strife - In This Defiance (First time I heard this was from a friend who was also on the diving team in high school, I couldn't believe my fucking
ears. Then I checked out the lyrics and I was down with all of that.)
Earth Crisis - Gomorrah's Season Ends ( I hate this record now, but it was the first EC album I bought and the title track with the whole "I am
straight edge" chant really made me feel good. I was drug free all throughout school when all my friends started doing drugs and fucking random
chicks and all basically drifted away from me for that shit. Did me alot of good. Also, much as I tried to resist it this band and this record and
subsequent EC albums that I bought influenced me to at least think about veganism.)
Agnostic Front - Somethings Gotta Give (Started my love affair with NYHC.)
Rancid - Let's Go (First punk rock album I bought, to this day my favorite Rancid album)
Dead Kennedys - Bedtime For Democracy (Bought it because it seemed DK was the thing to rock if you were punk... Ironic how I picked this up outta
conformity. Loved it though.)
Dropkick Murphys - Sing Loud Sing Proud
Madball - Demonstrate My Style
Ramallah - But A Whimper(After I'd lost all faith in hardcore and had moved onto basically just reggae, this one came along. Wow.)
Vegan Reich - Vanguard (What can I say? While I was already vegan when I bought this... it still changed alot of things dramatically)
All Out War - For Those Who Were Crucified(Made me realize you could believe in God and yet not believe like the others do.)

i've been thinking about this and for me it really boils down to 85-86.
it was then that i first heard
Suicidal Tendencies - s/t
DRI - Dealing With It
Dead Kennedy's - In God We Trust Inc.
those three albums shattered my prior conception of music.

BFB's Revenge on Society made me feel like I wasn't the only one.
Lots of other crap has been influential or cool or really made me get into certain things, but that one was profound and a defining moment.

Weird to see some mention of Kiss in here as that was a big thing for me as a kid. Destroyer was the first album I ever owned. I basically went from
having those read along in the book story records to blasting Destroyer at the age of five.
So yeah,
1) KISS - Destroyer
2) Stooges - Raw Power....totally woke me up to a more real version of what I was loving about bands like KISS and Alice Cooper. I think I was about 8
or 9 when I got a cassette version of that album.
3) The Cramps - Bad Music For Bad People...this was the beginning of my Punk years. Obviously, the Stooges were Punk too, but this was the first band
I could say I knowingly got into as a "Punk Band". My favorite Cramps songs are still ones from that album. Oddly enough, I've just recently been
getting very heavily into a lot of fucked up Bluesy and Lo-Fi Punk stuff that has a definite connection to the same roots as The Cramps.
4) Sex Pistols/Dead Kennedys/Black Flag - all those bands appeared on so many tapes that were passed my way around the time I was starting junior high
and they all knocked me on my ass and made me examine the way I looked at the world.
5) The Big Boys - No Matter How Long The Line as well as Lullabies Make The Brain Grow...Brought home the idea that there is not only NO set location
for amazing bands to come from, but that anyone and everyone should involve themselves. As the Big Boys always said "What are YOU doing to
participate?" Plus, they really opened my mind to the idea of bands playing anything they want and not sticking to one proven formula.
6) Slapshot - Step On It...I got into this band and album right when I was getting sober. It made me realize that I wasn't alone in wanting to break
free of the peer pressure mindset (not to mention my addictions), and also that I didn't have to try to be some kind of "normal" just because I didn't
want to be a wastoid anymore. It also lead me into my love of Oi and related genres which I had started getting into a little bit already.
7) Oi Polloi/Betrayed split album on Oi! Records....solidified my love of Oi. This was the first straight up Oi record I ever owned and it's still
great.
8) Negative Approach - Tied Down...Finally felt like I had found someone who was screaming the same thoughts that went through my head on a daily
basis. 'Nothing' was my theme song for many years.
9) Sheer Terror - Just Can't Hate Enough...Combined the themes I loved in the NA lyrics with brilliantly written lyrics on every level. For years I
thought no other album they released could hold a candle to this one, even though I loved every one as it came out. Now it's nowhere near my favorite
Sheer Terror stuff, but it's still fantastic.
10) Poison Idea - Pick Your King...a similar story to Sheer Terror, I fell in love with the lyrics and at first was put off by their later releases
with a more Hard Rock influence, but now I'm MUCH more likely to put on something like Blank Blackout Vacant than this one.
There's tons more, but that's a kind of overview of my evolving musical tastes over the years. In the past three or four years I have greatly expanded
my horizons and fallen completely in love with a lot of stuff that I had merely flirted with over the years. Stuff like raw Country/Honky Tonk,
Rockabilly/Psychobilly, old school Rock 'N Roll, Bluesy Punk, and quite a bit more besides.

Yeah, I shoulda put Blood For Blood in there somewhere too. When I first heard them I had given up completely on Hard Core. I wasn't buying any new
records in the genre aside from those of tried and true older bands, but hardly even any of those at that time because I was so disgusted with what it
had turned into at that time. I was listening almost exclusively to Oi and Skinhead Reggae around then and I think I was riding in the backseat of a
friend of a friend's car when Blood For Blood came on and I was blown away. I remember wondering how it was possible for me not to have heard of them
before until the guy who put it on told me they were still a new band. That actually lead me back into thinking there might still be hope for HC as a
whole. Unfortunately, I'm almost as disillusioned with the genre now as I was when they came out, but I haven't turned my back on the possibilty of
new bands with a clue like I had then.
