    Thank you all for watching this video! Please let me know what albums have had a significant impact on your life and why! I'm hoping to start getting a more consistent upload schedule now that I'm fully settled into my new job but we'll see what happens! Also I really want to start streaming on this channel so be on the lookout for that

    Some of mine gotta be:
    - The entire gorillaz catalog got me into music
    - To Pimp A Butterfly, made hip hop click with me as a genre
    - 98.12.28, specifically the 40 minute Long Season, touched me like no other song has
    - THE GHOST~POP TAPE, is like my emotional crutch. Whenever i fall back into the same slumps, that album and Peggy’s long living career shows me that I can be better, and that I can move past my current problems.

    Mine are
    - Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven by Godspeed You! Black Emperor - The first album that made me realize how much can be said with so little. One of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard and still my all time favorite
    - Hounds of Love by Kate Bush - The pop album that made me realize how smart and creative pop music can be. It allowed me to appreciate artists like Dua Lipa, Lana Del Rey, and Caroline Polachek
    - For The First Time by BCNR - the first album that got me really into music, and the reason why I seek out new music now. It is such a creative and unique project that shined a light on a world I had barely seen before.
    - Titanic Rising by Weyes Blood - My go to cozy album for late nights, driving at night, or even just getting cozy on a rainy day. Her voice is phenomenal and the soundscape is stunning. I could get lost in this album.
    - A Quiet Farewell by Slauson Malone - There is so much to by said about this album. It still takes my breath away every time I hear it. Such a strange and mindmelting combination of sounds that has driven me to seek out more out-there styles of music

    I’d have to say mine are:
    1. Twin Fantasy - Listened to Beach Life-in-Death the summer before sophomore year of HS, been a fan of CSH ever since. That album spoke to me in ways no other album had. Such an interesting and raw take on indie rock; the instrumentation on it is phenomenal and Will’s lyrics are incredibly creative, whitty, and even soul-crushingly real at times (actually most of the time). I was struggling a lot of mentally from 2019-2021 and that album, along with the rest of Will’s work especially Teens of Denial, MBIKMB, and HTLT and really came in clutch with being an outlet for all of that. I cant say I’m as obsessed with them as I was back then, but CSH will probably always be my personal favorite band OAT.
    2. The Low End Theory - My millennial cousin played “Check the Rhime” for me in 6th grade and that was my introduction to rap. Been a hip-hop fan ever since. So many memories attached to “Can I Kick It?” too, mainly skating around and just hanging out with friends. That track and a ton of ATCQ songs just put me in a good mood.
    3. Siamese Dream - I actually prefer this album over Melon Cholly tbh. This album is just really heavy and I consider it to be a pinnacle of grunge. Not too many memories attached to this album, it’s just a personal favorite. Fav track is probably “Today” with that roaring and droning guitar on the chorus.
    4. RATM self titled - Absolutely adore this, found this album through a friend in middle school, and damn it just hit hard. Them along with Slipknot and Deftones were my gateway into other genres like heavy metal and industrial. I come back to it till this day and it still sounds as fresh as when I first heard it. Zach’s bars fuck so hard and Tom’s guitar work is…I think enough has been said about it tbh.
    5. The Bends - I kinda hate my freshman year self for listening to this, but this album is so great. It’s the radiohead album I keep coming back to, even over OK Computer and Kid A. I remember watching the music video for Fake Plastic Trees at 8 years old (bad decision) and just been blown away by what I was hearing. Really got me more into music in general.
    6. Jailbreak by Thin Lizzy - classic 70s rock, my mom played this for me when I was 7 and THAT was the record that propelled me into the music-obsessed person I am today. Hearing “The Boys are Back in Town” sounded so fucking cool and still does to this day. The riffs on this song are so fire. Shoutout Thin Lizzy they aren’t talked about enough tbh. (Edit: Also shoutout Axis: Bold as Love, my dad played that album hella growing up and I love that album sm)
    8. IGOR - what can I say about this that already hasn’t been said. I was already a huge Tyler fan before this dropped (First album was Cherry Bomb) but holy shittttt what he did here was amazing and I don’t know if he can top it himself.
    9. Bitches Brew - the sole record responsible for getting me into jazz. So many mind bending moments on this one. Used to my math homework to this album. Miles Davis blending psychedelia into jazz was one of the best things to ever happen imo.
    10. Gorillaz self-title and Demon Days. No particular reason, I just really like how they sound. My 12 year old mind was blown by the “Feel Good Inc.” music video tho, but i’m pretty sure that’s a canon event everyone goes through (hopefully) No skip tracks on these though. Just two banger albums plain and simple. I think the feature they did on Demon Days really adds a nice layer, especially Del and MF Doom.

    the album i always go to when i think of albums that changed my life is 1000 gecs by 100 gecs. obviously there are alot of other ones but gecs is the most fun to talk about in this context. Basically i was listening to alot of korn, NIN, Alice In Chains stuff like that and my perspective on music was very snobby and ridiculous. i hated alot of modern music and also didnt typically like music that sounded happy cuz i was DARK and EDGY. 100 gecs basically flipped that on its head and completely changed not only my music taste but me as a person. i became a genuinely more open minded person. but yeah thats a fun story i like to tell people when talking about music. love this vid btw :)

    The Beatles - The Beatles 1962-1965 (the red album). This was my first CD. I got it when I was three years old, and I still know all the songs by heart.
    Eminem - The Marshall Matters LP. Got this CD around the age of eight. It got me into one of my favorite genres.
    Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism. The album that got me through my emotional teenage years.
    Opeth - Still Life. One of the albums that changed my taste in music the most. Probably around the age of sixteen.
    Death Grips - The Money Store. Besides metal and hardcore, this is the album that got me into harsh and abrasive music. I love noise in music now, but it has been a long journey.
    Darkspace - Dark Space III. It kinda feels like the culmination of my musical taste up to this point (without the hip-hop). Harsh lo-fi production, long songs, a lot of atmosphere.

    Sung Tongs is incredible! Some of mine are:
    The Age of Adz by Sufjan Stevens - I had never heard anything like this when i first listened to adz in full. Impossible Soul literally blew my mind. I honestly cant explain how much this album has emotionally affected me in words but it feels like it's permanently a part of me now. Sufjan is my all time favorite artist, so i feel like multiple of his albums might have "changed my life". His music just speaks to me so much.
    Twin Fantasy by Car Seat Headrest - I was experiencing an eerily similar type of relationship as what the album was about when i discovered it (yikes) and it was one of the first times i ever felt that seen in music. It felt like it was made for me hahah.
    People Who Can Eat People Are the Luckiest People in the World by AJJ - My discovery of AJJ which is a band that really means a lot to me. they've been a part of my life for a long time now. I was also in a really rough place when i discovered it so i related to a lot of the subject matter and it was really comforting to me.
    Other albums that i dont really have any specific memories of them "changing my life" but are still some of my favorites and have stayed with me since i first heard them are Remain in Light by Talking Heads, The Sunset Tree by The Mountain Goats, and Fabulous Muscles by Xiu Xiu

    Some of mine would be:
    When Facing the Things We Turn Away From - Luke Hemmings the first album I ever listened to and it has a very special spot in my heart that no other album does, and it got me through my dark times and is still one of my favourite albums, it's very underrated tho like there's barely any people talking about it and people should listen to this.
    Blonde - Frank Ocean this took time to grow on me but in the end I'm obsessed with this album, plus the replay value this album has is insane like I cannot stop listening to this and it means so much to me. I connected with every single song on here and it's very comforting, it's ethereal and I find myself getting lost in its atmosphere and it easily engulfs me. Everything about this album just speaks to me and is probably one of my favourite albums.
    In Rainbows - Radiohead I barely have anything to say about this that hasn't already been said, it got me into Radiohead and it's so beautiful, I understood this album right when I first listened it. It warms my heart everytime I listen to this and I find myself getting lost in everything this album has to offer. It speaks to me on a personal level.

    The album that has been having the biggest impact on me for the
    last year has been The Glow Pt. 2 by the Microphones. It changed the way I view music through its poetry mixed with its mind bending atmospheres.
    Also my go to album for the last few years that has changed my life is A Moon Shaped Pool by Radiohead. Many consider this a sad record but for me the album evokes a different mood. It shows that you can find peace even in sadness and somehow the album for me has become about finding contentment. I can always vibe with this record’s hypnotizing rhythms and can always find peace in it even when my life is chaos.

    The Money Store changed me cause it introduced me to my favorite band
    Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret by Soft Cell. Discovered it while questioning my sexuality and it became a huge part of my self discovery
    Lift Yr Skinny Fists. I’d started to like music beforehand (my RYM friend was getting me into Radiohead and Tyler, the Creator and would soon convince me to make an account) but I found this on my own and it was the first album I heard which was totally structurally different from the normal. It blew me away. I never heard anything like it.
    In the Aeroplane Over the Sea because it’s the reason I started to play guitar
    A I A: Alien Observer by Grouper for reasons very very very close to home so I won’t go too in depth but it’s become a being of peace and beauty for me. My favorite album of all time for a reason.

    2. In the Aeroplane Over the Sea - I analysed the hell out of the lyrics and I never got tired of it. It's a lyrical masterpiece.
    3. RTJ4 - The first time a hip-hop album resonated with me. the production is fire, the beats are wild and the featurings are ju$t perfect.
    4. The Glow pt. 2 - my album of this year, carried me through 2023. Everytime I listened to it I discovered something new within the production. Also lyrically extremly strong.

    Up until high school the music I had explored was mostly rock, pop, folk, etc. In the early days of youtube when runescape was bumpin, tons of people were making runescape compilation videos using the song Slats Slats Slats by Skrillex in the background. Oh man, that song singlehandedly opened me up to electronic music. This was early Skrillex, very different sound than the stuff he's known for. I don't even listen to much straight up electronic music these days, but that was probably the biggest shift for me caused by a single song.

    • @loftyjones675
      @loftyjones675 8 месяцев назад

    Great video, Kyle! Here are some of mine.
    American Idiot by Green Day. Like you, it was one of my first albums. It was the first album that I bought on CD with my own money, and it evoked feelings that I didn't think music could. It was my first rock opera/concept record, and it changed my entire conception of what storytelling and music could be.
    The Blue Album by Weezer. To this day, this serves as one of the biggest influences on my own music. I even fully adapted my guitar technique to what Rivers does on this one. The lyrics are so unapologetically Weezer, and the melodies are all absolute earworms. This album stands out to me as being extremely authentic. It is so ITSELF, and that's what I love about it.
    Doolittle by The Pixies. I find that this blends the pop-punky nature of the previous two with some other extremely unique sounds. It's the first album I listened to where screaming did not completely turn me off from the project, because the songwriting is so amazing. It definitely opened my mind up to less conventional styles of pop music, while still being pop music. It was also the first album that I called my favourite, and it is still in my top 3.
    In The Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel. This evoked the same feelings at 18 that American Idiot did at 12, but with even more sophisticated storytelling and varied arrangements. Absolutely beautiful piece of work, and it's serving as the biggest influence on a current concept album that I have in the works (it is technically a piece of musical theatre but when you get down to it those are kinda similar things)
    Speaking of musical theatre, my final one is Hadestown by Anais Mitchell (which she later adapted into a full Broadway show.) Similar to Aeroplane, this is serving as a major influence on my current projects. On the concept album especially, the performances are so haunting and beautiful, with this gorgeous 30's inspired blues sound. It tells it's story, which is already extremely famous, in such a way that all of the beats feel fresh, surprising, and heartbreaking.
    Honorable Mentions: Siamese Dream by the Smashing Pumpkins, Roman Candle by Elliott Smith, OK Computer by Radiohead, Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys, Nevermind by Nirvana.

    I think my examples are less life changing and more life defining, they have been soundtracks for key parts of my life, mainly leaving home during the pandemic and working out how to live by myself:
    - Kaputt - Destroyer
    - Laughing Stock - Talk Talk
    - Twin Fantasy - CSH
    - Loveless - MBV
    - All of Radiohead

    Jettison by And So I Watch You From Afar is an absolutely enchanting album, a great narrative through spoken word every couple tracks. It’s mostly instrumental otherwise but man it is stellar.

    There are many albums that I love, but the only two that really "changed my life" are probably Crimson's ITCOTCK and Swans' SFTB. That said, there are a lot of other special ones (especially from when I was younger), including Kraftwerk's Computer World, Yes' Tales From Topographic Oceans, and practically any Beatles album.

    Great video! I started listening to music later than most, so a lot of my "life-changing" records are from the last four years. Some of them are:
    Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly: This is the first full album that I listened to. Prior to this album I only listened to radio music and never got into music because of that. The myriad of influences on the album, personal story telling, and social messaging made me realize that music could be more than a two minute distraction.
    Madvillain - Madvillainy: This is the album that got me into music properly. I first heard this album when I was in a dark place in life and listened to it until I memorized every song front-to-back. Even now, every time I listen to it I'm reminded of that period of my life.
    Talking Heads - Remain In Light: I hated this album when I first listened to it. I always heard it was a seminal record in the rock/post-punk genre and so I came in with a set of expectations for how it was "supposed" to sound. This album taught me that I should not only take albums as they are and not as I expect them to be, but also that repeated listens are necessary to fully appreciate what a piece of music is trying to say and do.
    Pixies - Doolittle: Similar to Talking Heads, I was not a big fan of this record when I first heard it. Nirvana immediately grabbed my attention, and a lot of 90's alt rock that followed was more interesting to be because it harkened back to that original "punk" sound I liked from Nevermind/In Utero. Doolittle by comparison almost sounded underwhelming by comparison. It wasn't until hundreds of albums later that I was able to come back and fully appreciate the record and appreciate it even more. Doolittle taught me the value of perspective, and how understanding the broader context and culture around an album can help me better appreciate its influence and sound.
    John Coltrane - A Love Supreme: Jazz was a genre I never fully appreciated and saw as "background music." There were some more complex jazz pieces I listened to prior to Supreme, but I found it too difficult to understand/fully appreciate and this album kick started my jazz journey. This albums has a nice balance between melodic structure and free-form improvisation and I think that's what makes it popular. It certainly helped me as a gateway album.
    At The Drive-In - Relationship of Command: This doesn't have some deep or special story to it, it's just a cathartic album for me to listen to. It has so much energy from start to finish with very little breathing room, and it's always helped me vent any anger or frustration I might be feeling. It came at a perfect time in my life too, where I was balancing a lot of adult responsibilities and feeling overwhelmed. Yet, somehow, I was always able to throw on this record and come out feeling more pumped up to tackle my problems.

    I mention a lot of heavy stuff in relation to my list, so slight TW ahead for mental health and also mention of an ab*ser.
    My list would be:
    - Love Sensuality Devotion by Enigma (first album I listened to in one session - multiple times. It was also the first album I listened to that as not strictly a pop or rock album)
    - The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails (helped me through my worst depressive episode as a teenager, and the failed treatments that followed that. I'd rather not elaborate....)
    - VanaN'Ice by SCL Project (this album defined my teenage Vocaloid and metal phase in one package. It also has some of the most impressive use of Kagamine Len's old and terrible voice bank I've seen, which funnily enough is part of the reason why he's my favorite Vocaloid. I own the newer Kagamine voicebanks now and they're top tier, how long technology has come)
    - You Won't Get What You Want by Daughters (even though I don't listen to the album anymore in light of the AM situation - if you know, you know - the advice I got to listen to it softened me up significantly to noise music, which was to listen to it like an ambient album. I don't regret exploring their discography and related acts even though I don't want to touch the album anymore)
    - Bright Green Field by Squid (I first heard the singles for this album around the time I was having a combination of culture shock and trauma flashbacks because of a difficult roommate situation at my first semester transferring to uni after a gap year. This album helped me keep going while also being relatable. Squid is now my favorite rock band and Narrator will forever be among my favorite songs)

    So many records have impacted me potently, but the one I can point to for being the genesis of my discovery of albums as whole pieces of art: "The Wall" by Pink Floyd. For time I heard a record from front to back and that changed everything. I was very into musical theatre and acting throughout middle school and high school, so hearing that intersection of a cohesive story told through an album was quite mind boggling haha

    Weird Al - Straight Outta Lynwood: First CD I was conscious of. Played it to death when I was way too young for some of the humor.
    Yes - Close To The Edge: changed the trajectory of my life. Didn’t care about music much until I heard this and now it’s a huge part of my life. Also my first cd in my now massive collection.
    Dream Theater - Metropolis Pt 2: Scenes From a Memory: The album that showed me that metal can be really cool, which is a lot of what my current taste consists of.
