Your Music Evolution

I was basicly raised on classic rock. So I started to like alot of bands from the mid 60s up to the the early 90s (Pre-grunge). My mom and dad played alot of Jethro Tull, Beatles, little feet, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Queen, Eagles, Cat Stevens, Led Zepplin, ZZtop, Tom Petty Fletwood Mac, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Hendrix, Black Sabbath, ETC. between the both of them. Also every time I'd get in the car the classic rock radio station would be on. By Pre-school, I basicly learned most of the bands from that time and yet...I couldn't spell the simplest words.

I really didn't start getting my own taste in music until maybe second grade. Where I actually started getting into the Monkees after seeing the show for the first time in my life :ashamed: . I rarely go back an listion to them now. but back then I was really into them. Then I started to like classic rock again. Mainly the Bettles and Paul Revere and the Raiders....I still like them seeing as how I was raised on them...

Then sometime around age 9 I really got into music and developed my own tastes not based off of what my parents listioned to. In started out soft, then grew into louder bands. Although some of the louder bands I started to like through my dad.

Red Hot chilipepers
The first song I herd was Californiacation. But I remember listioning to them on the radio a few times when I was younger. I still listion to them

Everclear
Rarely listion to them anymore. I'm into more louder stuff now.

Metallica
Stole the black album from my dad. Still like and listion to them them....but only the older albums (before St. Anger).

Incubus
I liked the video for the song Drive. My mom got the album Make yourself and I happned to steal it from her. Still listion to them.

Collective Soul
Basicly found out about them through my mom. Still listion to them.

Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice In Chains
Seeing as how I basicly missed the grunge scene for I was like 3-5 during it's prime, and my mom wasn't into it back then, I started to get into some of the bands in my pre-teens. I still listion to them...alot.

Days of the new and Tantric
Heard it through my mom. Liked them, still listion them to them from time to time...

White Zombie and Rob Zombie
I liked the songs they played on the radio alot. I still like him...and I sometimes go back an listion to him as well.

NIN and Filter
At first I didn't like NIN. But they grew on me. As for Filter....I was always partial to Hey man nice shot from hearing it on the radio alot. Still like and listion to both of them.

Offspring
I first herd them after a kid in my class swiched a girls backstreet boys tape out with Americana...needless to say...the teacher didn't like it. I still listion to them.

Powerman 5000
I don't know what made me get in to them. But I still like and listion to them.

Lacuna Coil
Heard about them though the radio where a DJ was having a rant about how Evenecence was copying them. Stole Commalities from my dad. Still like and listion to them....

Audioslave
I liked them because I liked both Soundgarden and Rage agenst the machine. Still like and listion to them.

Velvet revolver
Because I liked Guns 'n Roses and STP....Still have been meaning to get their album. But I do listion to them when their on the radio.

L'arc~en~cel, The Pillows, Orange Range, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, UVERworld, high and mighty color, and other Random J-rock bands I heard through anime.
This is what I really like now. American music has sort of taken a back seat for all the new music coming out sort of...how should I put this...sucks. So I opted for foren music. I listion them more then anything now. That's not to say that I don't listion to the above bands anyless. It's just that J-rock just apeals to me more now.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
