What is the first artist/band you actually started to listen to and how old were you? I'm not talking about stuff like "Well, I liked one from from Britney spears". I'm talking about bands that you really were into.
Mine must be D.D.E and Trang Fødsel, I was around 5-6 years old. These are two really good norwegian bands. I cant really say I like D.D.E anymore though  Dont really know what genre to place them in. I listened to this alot at that time. Think I need to start checking out some Trang Fødsel again, they just released a new album  http://youtube.com/watch?v=BGGzsskpBVU - Trang Fødsel. AWESOME! http://youtube.com/watch?v=-k6zBI18hY4 - D.D.E. Lol these guys are just too cool So whats your very first favorite band?

I remember that summer when I was 10. "All star" by Smashmouth was like the biggest song out there at the time,
That Is the first band I remember really liking.

QUOTE (JVM @ Jul 10 2007, 06:25 PM) Thats too bad there's a lot of good punk music I stopped listening to it because i don't like the style itself!! After getting to know metal bands i stopped listening to any punk bands! Also - the more i improve on guitar the pickier i am about the music!!

Mine was the Beatles. Granted, I'm not old enough to be around when they were big, my uncle got me into them.
Shortly after that was Metallica. |

There were a few bands I took over from my sister (or her friends) in my pre/early teens... The Cure, U2, Sting/The Police... Then at the end of public school (early nineties) and through gymnasium/high school, I finally found "my own" bands - Rage Against the Machine, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, held on to The Cure...
And then there was Dizzy Mizz Lizzy - somewhat like Robin, that's a Danish band that noone outside Scandinavia has ever heard of (well, they got a bit of fame in Japan). To this day, they're still somewhat legendary - not for technique, more for catchy, classic rock-inspired songs... My band does a few covers now and then. People have been known to name their cats after them  Tim, the guitarist and lead singer went on to be probably one of the greatest guitarists in Denmark. This is before then https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZePJNKhmxOs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkm3vKNBk1U YouTube doesn't have the really good stuff

The first band I really reallt digged was Iron Maiden, guessing I was 10 yrs old. Got their self entitled album, next I got Judas Priest - Point of Entry - and later on I got Maiden, Killers. And I got em when they were released so it must have been -80 -81.
Maiden was #1 and Judas #2 those were the days
