parkinglot Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I can't remember exactly but probably something along the lines of: Sum 41 - All Killer No Filler Nickleback - Silver Side Up Big Shiny Tunes 6 Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue The last CD I bought was No Devolucion. I had recently started collecting vinyl, and for some reason decided to buy it on CD in HMV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 When I was really young, tapes just ended up in my possession (like Raffi and shit), but the first tape I remember purchasing with my own money was New Kids On The Block's Hangin' Tough, followed shortly by Nelson's After The Rain. The first CD I ever received was the Cranberries' Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Can't We? as a Christmas gift from my aunt, and the first CD I ever bought was Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell. As for vinyl, that's a lot trickier, but I do remember buying the Jejune/Jimmy Eat World 7-inch very early on in my record-buying career (like 1997, I think? or did it come out in '98?) as well as a used copy of Social Distortion's White Light, White Heat, White Trash on vinyl for like $4.

DarcX Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 The first physical format stuff I ever bought was vinyl on RSD2014; didn't wanna spend the money on CDs, but the vinyl thing started piquing my interest so I figured getting Colors Live would be a good way to see if I was into it. Now here I am. I probably can't remember the order honestly, but: BTBAM - Colors Live Dionaea - Still Death - Leprosy BTBAM - S/T BTBAM - Alaska Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futures Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 i honestly don't remember this lol. it's hard for me to separate what was given to me, what i bought, and what i took from my parents. my dad was huge into grunge, which i also liked when i was way young. i remember getting into his nirvana and stp cds. but i also remember owning jewel's pieces of me, hanson's middle of nowhere, & the spice girls debut. i think those were gifts though. my dad was a member of columbia house so he'd always let me pick a cd or 2 from there since they were only a penny each. i remember that's how i got clarity and bleed american by jimmy eat world. i'm a mess, i have no idea.

NapalmBrain Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 1. Green Day - Dookie (CD) on release day 2. Weezer - Blue Album (cassette) 3. R.E.M. - Monster (cassette) 4. Green Day - Kerplunk! (CD) 5. Better Than Ezra - Deluxe (CD) I'm glad you said top 5 and not 10, cause as embarassing as BTE was I think it got worse for a couple years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynegretzky Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 You were either the coolest kid in elementary school or you had no friends. I can't decide. Hahaha. I don't even know how to respond to this. Owning Enema of the State was a pretty big feat with the Parental Advisory and all, which was actually enforced here. Bringing it to the hockey dressing room for pre-game Blink-182 didn't hurt the rep. Otherwise, no friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
