| ThePalestMexican's Guide To Musics
(Inspired by Maniac...you'll always be Maniac to be baby ='] ) It's tough to say where my music obsession began, but I'll try my best by simply telling it to how it all well....began. Like Maniac I grew up in a very Christian home (this is Texas after all), but I also had a very music loving uncle and friend that could let me escape outside of music that my family would've not been so keen on (and are still not). Here is the tale of a pale mexican, a very pale mexican, and his love for very tan music. | 1 | | Guns N' Roses Appetite For Destruction
Following my 7th birthday I received a cassette player, but I had no cassettes. My uncle decided to give me this album, and my uncle gave me this. My mom saw it as ok and I played the hell out of it. | 2 | | Alice in Chains Dirt
My mom actually had this album, and told me it was "alternative". I later figured out what grunge was and realized how wrong that statement was. Still was a sexy album, though I prefer Facelift (probably cause it's a tad darker). It was my first brush with dark material (at least in comparison to the previous album). | 3 | | System of a Down Toxicity
This was my first album purchased. I didn't know I got the nu-metal gem, I just thought "HEY! I LIKE AERIALS! AND I LIKE TOXICITY! =D". A lot of this was too heavy for me, but I soon came around. This was my first jumpage into heavy music, and I sortly went off on the whole nu-metal craze. | 4 | | Spineshank Self Destructive Pattern
This album marked a close for my nu-metal craze. I had soon hungered for something that wasn't based on teenage angst. While I still have fond memories of the album, and I still get a good listen out of it. I think I wanted something heavier, crazier, and something meant for more mature audiences. I think I grew up a little in that moment, and then I discovered fapping. | 5 | | Fear Factory Obsolete
I soon discovered Fear Factory and was for a strong part of my life my favorite band. This was always my favorite album, and the ending track "Resurrection" gave me a wet spot in my pants (which wasn't caused by fapping for once). | 6 | | Machine Head Burn My Eyes
Along with Fear Factory there was Machine Head. This album remained a favorite amongst my collection for it's more "raw" feel. | 7 | | As Blood Runs Black Allegiance
In one simple album did one expose me to death metal, and hardcore at once. I didn't know what a breakdown was at this point in time so I wasn't as annoyed with it as much. Listening back I really wonder why I enjoyed it so much, though to be honest "Beneath the Surface" still gets plays from me to this day. | 8 | | De La Soul 3 Feet High and Rising
I didn't neccesarily jump into death metal and hardcore at that moment. I needed something more...upbeat in my life at this point, I needed something different and I heard "Me, Myself, and I" somewhere and proceeded to check out De La Soul. I guess this exposed me to hip-hop, and I fell good and hard for it for awhile. | 9 | | Zebrahead Waste of Mind
This exposed me to punk and ska while keeping with my old tastes for nu-metal. This later led me to other ska, and pop punk bands. | 10 | | The Dillinger Escape Plan Irony is a Dead Scene
Soon after I started craving heavy music again, and I fell in love with Mike Patton. This album exposed me to his music and I became a hard fapping fan of his ever since. (yes I am a fanboy, I realize it, IGNORE ME!!!) | 11 | | In Flames Colony
I soon tapped back into ABRB, and THIS is where death metal and hardcore came to fruition. I listened to this album and Comeback Kid's Turn It Around were favorites of these. | 12 | | Pig Destroyer Terrifyer
The album that opened my front door to one of my favorite genres grindcore. I feel in love with bands like Nasum, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, and Fuck the Facts. Well as for the rest....the rest is history. | |

08.11.10 | I don't remember how I discovered Sputnikmusic to be honest with you guys. All I remember was I had a breakup with my gf, and I needed something to do so I joined this. And it stuck with me.
and yes I realized I just rated a lot of albums for these, as I simply haven't done it until now. | fivesnw
08.11.10 | Cool list man. You had a lot more outside musical influence than I did. Christian music, country, and 80's glam and pop were all I had for the longest time. | bloc

08.11.10 | my parents had/have awesome taste in music. I was weaned on Maiden, Priest, Sabbath, Zeppelin and then when I was like 13, MY MOM bought Bitterness the Star. She didn't like Brock's vocals so she gave it to me. She got right into metalcore and post-hardcore. Her favourite bands were Atreyu, Funeral For a Friend etc..pretty fucked up eh? | BigHans

08.11.10 | 'The main riffs in Old AND Davidian are some of the best in metal.'
Absolutely man. Just proves that you don't need a million notes to make a good riff/song. Some of the new bands could learn a bit from that. | FadeToBlack
