I was pretty strictly le wrong generation until I discovered Animal Collective and Crystal Castles
>>66319340
Right before I started browsing /mu/, I was into this girl who loved Neon Indian and Crystal Castles and got me heavily into them. Then I wanted to find more music.
I get feels just listening to those two now..
>>66319340
Still is. Basically the album that got me into music. Also somehow discovered radiohead before /mu/ so that was a happy accident.
Listening to this on headphones during bus rides while barely awake used to blow my mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLuOzNeHw5I
Didn't even listen to Jusitce or Daft Punk before him

Diary or ITAOTS
I started browsing /mu/ before I cared about albums about 10 years ago.

This is what /mu/ does to a person
it's the same album

>looks at OK Computer cover art once
Today it's Close to the Edge, which, come to think of it, sounds a little bit like a less condensed and more spacious version of pic related. /mu/ didn't have to do with the change as much as age. I was a huge Yes fan before I arrived at /mu/, but it took me five years to realize that Close to the Edge was the best thing Yes had ever achieved. Tales From Topographic Oceans felt more enticing to me, because when you're sixteen and getting into prog, a double album with four prog opuses logically seems like the best you can get. Over time, Close to the Edge revealed itself to be their best album to me, and it still gets more beautiful with every listen. Every time I listen to it, I notice more things that strike me as powerful and beautiful that I hadn't heard before.

liminal space is better though so who cares
IDK, been a few years. I'm pretty sure it was this
Demon Days
i was a punky boy with emotions
>>66321857
i really like the cover art on that.
I still have a soft spot for diplomats son
It's still my favourite album now, but at least I've managed to get into more genres; I was a bit of a dadrocker before I found out about /mu/.
Bought it specifically for Feel Good, Inc. when I was 13, found out I actually loved all of it after a few listens
The Mars Volta - Frances The Mute or RATM Self Titled
>>66319340
unironically ITAOTS
and this was back when /mu/ was obsessed with this album. I just happened to find a place as obsessed with it as I was.
