Did you ever go through an edgy phase where you thought music or an album "changed your life"
I still cringe when I think back to that phaze

Someone sounds insecure
No, not really, but I always expected it. Same with film, same with books. Nothing.
The only thing that has actually changed my life slightly is riding my bicycle.
It's funny because you think you're gonna look back on 2017 and not feel the same way you feel right now
You're still going through that phaze aren't you

Go back to sleep
"Radio head changed my life"
-you
I'm just living my life get off my back
everything changes your life. even what you chose to have for breakfast today
Every album I like effects me in one way or another otherwise I wouldn't be listening to it. Why is acknowledging this a bad thing?
If a knockoff chinese toy became sentient this is how it'd read
hahahahaha
Music is nothing more than cheap entertainment, even the edgy shit you listen too. You'll find more meaning in most porn than you will music
This is the cold hard truth
Someone listens to shitty music
In denial
Well it depends on how much the music influenced your actions. So if you heard an album full of amazing guitar solos, then it inspired you to pick up and master guitar, then it did change your life by making you learn a skill.
If a 12 year old hears Marilyn Manson for the first time and then buys a bunch of "Goth" clothes from Hot Topic, that's not really a life change, just a cringe phase.
Glad to find someone else who recognizes the COLD, HARD TRUTH about music. When will these children learn?

Bait
Not particularly. Though like many people I used to play Closer at midnight and contemplate suicide until I gradually changed, I don't cringe looking back at it though, I can still see the reasons why I felt that way and accept it as a fundamental part of adolescence. First album I listened to was Hissing Fauna and its still one of my favorites, I thank that and Funeral for making me go on Sup Forums in the first place.
This is the worst bait.
Never went through a phase like that where I thought an album was so amazing that it changed the way I thought about things.
I would however say the Marshall Mathers LP has had an impact on my life because it's the album that got me into music. Then after listening to a bunch more albums I wanted to make my own so I learned to play guitar.
I don't think that an album has really "changed my life" before, but Unknown Pleasures was the album that got me interested in post-punk and music in general, while Late Registration got me interested in rap music.
