Albums That Changed How I Think Of Music (Pt. 1?)
Albums that changed my views on what music is/could be/should be/tries to be/whatever. There's rnot a super-well defined order going on here. |
| 10 |  | Meshuggah
Nothing
Does this need an explanation? |
| 9 |  | Opeth
Blackwater Park
Because Opeth. This was my first really introduction to more extreme metal, but
the proggyness of this album kept me engaged and took the artistry to a new level. |
| 8 |  | Cloudkicker
Beacons
Some of the ambient takes on Meshuggah-styled rhythms are done with calculator
precision and waving flow. |
| 7 |  | Converge
Jane Doe
Like getting your teeth drilled out with a sledgehammer by an epileptic meth addict. |
| 6 |  | Isis
Celestial
Dark post-rock-esque atmosphere with an overarching plot and unusual structures.
What's not to like? |
| 5 |  | Mike Oldfield
Tubular Bells
I recently listened through this a couple times. It's probably one of the most odd,
disjunct, yet organized things I've ever listened to. |
| 4 |  | Zebrahead
MFZB
This is a choice probably liable to get me shit, but hell, it's a fun record. For all the
rap/rock/nu-metal acts who tried to incorporate hiphop styles in rock, I think
Zebrahead does it best. This album got me into loads of new music, and I still listen
to it every once in a while when I need a few carefree, happy songs. |
| 3 |  | Nine Inch Nails
The Downward Spiral
I still think this album has a good argument behind it for being one of the heaviest
albums ever written. This record is pure hate and decay, and it just really resonated
with me the first tine I heard it and I was in a dark place. |
| 2 |  | Massive Attack
Mezzanine
Just very unusual in the hip-hop world, at least to me. The diverse infuences of this
album intrigue me. |
| 1 |  | Venetian Snares
Rossz Csillag Allat Szuletett
This album is pretty weird. Bloops and Bleeps, now with strings for added pleasure! |
