I really can't figure out what I was listening to for my first 16 years of my life. I considered myself as a person with a difficult taste in music, not listening to any song on the radio. So I listened to just some of the stuff on the radio.
Then I discovered I love metal music, and the first band I listened to was Metallica. I don't know why in here, a metalhead should listen to those 3 bands: Metallica, Nirvana and Iron Maiden, and that's what I did (I really don't know why Nirvana is in this trinity). I loved that kind of music (but didn't expand my knowledge at all), and on that stage I was 12.
And with being 12, comes the stage of being a cliché pre-teenage girl, so I listened to Avril Lavigne, Evanescence and t.A.T.u, still considering myself as someone who knows in music. From the age 12 till the age 16, the only band that I loved, and still do, is System of a Down.
At 16 I joined a couple of local forums (we've got the same active users in all local forums), and as I was beginning to be one of the main active users, I kind of showed like someone who knows what the hell he's talking about, and it wasn't the case at all. So feeling how mediocre my knowledge in music was, I began memorizing the name of the bands always mentioned in all discussions. So it was Pink Floyd, The Doors and Led Zeppelin.
... I just noticed that I've been rambling stuff out of topic.

Returning to the topic:
The beginning of my quest was at 17, with Pink Floyd's The Wall, I got addicted to it. Then by mistake I discovered The Zombies. I started listening to The Beatles last year, and memorized their whole discography in 2 weeks, and that's when I realized I love the 60s music. It was then The Doors and the rest of Pink Floyd's albums. Plus I got to know Radiohead last summer, after I found out one student is obsessed with them.

And with this pathetic knowledge I joined this forum.

After few months on MB, I still think my favorite genre is Psychedelic Rock, but to that I added maybe more than 15 genres. I've even been enjoying some Electronica.
