Listened to their first album/ep.

Pic related is how I got into Ween

It's probably my fourth favorite of theirs atm

My Father Will Guide Me Up A Rope To The Sky

The Mollusk (I was on acid jamming with a guy in my freshman dorm and he showed me Ocean Man)

Hail To The Thief

14 year old me sat in my dark room on a friday night drunk as fuck, went on thirdworlds and listened to this. First exposure to experimental hip hop, didn't expect anything like what I heard. Woke up the next day and just had to re listen to it. From there The Money Store blew me away even more.

How i got into Sufjan

I kind of liked To Be Kind and visited Soundtracks For The Blind and now theyre one of my favorite bands

The Mollusk

OK Computer

Rain Dogs

Same album

Jesus, exmilitary really was 6 years ago...

>friend shows me puscifer
>discover the song "trekka" and its Swans counterpart
>listen through Swans discography starting from Children of God

I listened to the seer every day for 5 days.

STFB

Saw this on a Sup Forums thread and thought the album art looked nice. Now they're my favorite band.

chocolate and cheese
in rainbows
night hawks at the diner
exmil
great album i'd start with Illinois
close to the edge

still haven't bothered with radiohead, they're too bizarre for me

carrie and lowell takes illinois and spits on it while choking it with its dick. and illinois is still bretty good

5 fingers is well enough to number swans' albums i don't like

soundtracks
the mollusk
same album (still my favorite)
hella
illinois
close to the edge was my first album but i heard other songs on classic rock radio from my dad
goo

Syro is the easiest to get into since SAW sounds outdated after 20-something years
Definitely Kid A

Money Store

What do you mean "bizarre", user?

I mean to say that whatever the appeal for them is soars over my head. For some reason I don't understand the music. The only thing they have made that I've been able to enjoy was "The Tourist"

Did you hear "Climbing Up the Walls"?
Not trying to shill them to you, but that song has a very similar feel and it's one of my overall favorites.

>not being able to understand the appeal of a band as accesable as Radiohead
7/10 got me to reply

Yes, it sounds alright. I don't like it.
My intention is not to bait. Radiohead simply does not meet my conception of enjoyable music. It's not accessible to me; when I listen to it the only strong reaction I have is one of confusion. It feels as if I'm wasting time by hearing it.

>My intention is not to bait
>It's not accessible to me
Way to contradict yourself, Radiohead is super accessible and I refuse to believe someone who browses Sup Forums (and therefore doesn't just listen to radio music) is this fucking stupid.

If it were accessible to me, I would, self-evidently, be able to understand the appeal of it. I don't understand the appeal of the music, ergo it is not accessible to me. I have failed to "access" the essence of the music which renders it pleasing to the ear. Don't think that I'm attempting to claim that Radiohead is not universally accessible, understand that my original claim was that the music is "bizarre" to me.

Not even The Bends?

i didn't
the mollusk
amnesiac
rain dogs
the money store
illinois

English Faggot got me interested
Hauss on Fah pulled me in
Now I spam Foetus because it's just too fucking good

I was browsing Sup Forums and just on an off chance I saw a random off topic thread on Sup Forums about living in Japan in the 80's had a random user post the Daicon IV video saying ">tfw you will never be an otaku in the late 70's/80's". I was pretty curious so I checked out the video he posted.

Watched the whole thing, loved it then watched it again. Had to find out where the music originated from, found Time, listened to the whole album and then again. It became my favourite album of all "Time" and that got me into ELO pretty much.

Sup Forums also got me into Toshiki Kadomatsu from someone posting "Sea Line "Rie"" and I was hooked from there. I listen to a lot of Japanese Funk/Rock/R&B and more these days.

I listened to that, Kid A, and OK Computer - in that order - before I abandoned my pursuit of something to enjoy in Radiohead's music.

filth

the mollusk

the bends

closing time

don't remember, might have been powers that b

same, but I put him off for a long time after that because I didn't like it. I started again with illionois and now I like sufjan

close to the edge

daydream nation but that's my favorite SY album

windowlicker ep, maybe?

I was watching Moral Orel and no children was used in one of the episodes

Soundtracks for the Blind of all things
Maybe Kid A? I can't remember
The Powers That B though TMS was what cemented them for me
I've only listened to Illinoise but I liked it so maybe that's the start
Same, though I don't think SAW 85-92 sounds outdated at all, or at least not in any negative way
The Fragile

Soundtrack
Goo
Selected Ambient Works Vol. 1

I know it's a short discography, but it's what got me into the Smiths.
I don't remember which Radiohead album I listened to first, but I'm pretty sure it was the Bends or OK Computer.
NLDW
Goo
SAW 85-92
PHM for me too
