In my case there was one, "Fear Of The Dark". A friend came to my home with the vinyl... and here it all began (I was 15 years old at that time).

My first real metal album was The Bleeding from Cannibal Corpse in 1994.

Before that it has been only 70s Rock and some hard rock like AC/DC.

Well, I heard a few metal albums before I really got into metal, but what really made me want to explore the metal genre was when I heard Tool's 10,000 days. That album made me understand metal wasn't always about hairy fat blokes screaming like their pants were on fire ... even though I listen to extreme metal now.

Hmm... Honestly, this might be a little weird... And will probably be long winded.

I grew up listening to some righteous country with my grandparents, not really understanding the true scope of music. But, years later (12, perhaps?), I was hanging out with a cooler older friend that played guitar and he had me listen to Limp Bizkit - Significant Other (remember, the one with Nookie?).

That album introduced me to the distortion guitar, and I was hooked. I think that same day we also listened to Rammstein - Herzeleid, which was a much larger influence.

Then, I purchased my very first CD soon after that exposure, Rob Zombie - Hellbilly Deluxe.

BUT! The definitive album that made me realize that Metal was friggin' awesome...

Fear Factory - Obsolete

The last album "Mechanize" is very very good, they have returned with Dino Cazares, and even they are better with the incorporation of Gene Hoglan at the battery.

Justin Bieber's album. After listening to it, I thought to myself: "never again, from now on just metal".

Without knowing it, that album could have greatly influenced your taste and tolerance of extremity. You have probably cursed yourself to an eternity of symphonic power metal.



(also Justin Bieber isn't the be-all-end-all of non-metal music, just sayin')

It was 1988 when I bought the cassette of "The Final Countdown", I was 6 and I was in a local party when I stopped at the cassettes shop and my parents asked if I wanted something... I said "ninuninuuuu ninuninunoooo...", they thought the band of that song would be ok and wouldnt make bad influence in me, so they agreed I could take the album... they regreted so much with years XD

I was watching a 'Gears of War' montage on youtube not too long after the first game came out and Slipknot's 'Before I Forget' was the music, I then got that album. Can't stand that band now its crazy how much your musical taste can change, though I thank them for introducing me.

It wasn't really any specific album, but if any I'd say System of a Down - Toxicity. That wasn't even two years ago when I first heard it, and now I'm addicted to metal.

The first album that introduced me into Metal was my father´s vinyl copy of Scorpions´ ¨Crazy World¨, I was only ten years old and just couldn´t stop listening to those songs over and over again. Then a friend gave me a tape with Maiden´s ¨The Number of the Beast¨ and another one with Metallica´s ¨Kill´em All¨ ....and I saw the light.

The first album I owned was Limp Bizkit's Chocolate Starfish And The Hotdog Flavored Water (leave all bizkit bagging untill the end of the post, please.). The next step was Guns 'n' Roses (best of). Finally, the journy was compleded with the Black Sabbath best of (2 disc version).
Now you may pick on Fred Durst. It's still a great album.

It were basically those three albums, in aproximately this order:



Disturbed helped a great deal as well. And now I pretty much listen to anything from Blind Guardian to Septicflesh.
