What's the most memorable album for you from your high school graduation year? For me, it was easily the Red Album by Baroness. 2007, listening to "Rays on Pinion" with the windows down, thinking I owned the road. Feel free to share the ones that were memorable to you.

On that year I discovered Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull wich was freaking amazing. For album released the same year, I would go with either 10 000 Days by Tool or Motorhead's Inferno. I don't remember when I finished highschool. It's all a bit blurry.

Back in 2009? Kind of a tough call since I listened more to thrash classics and didn't really follow new albums back then... It was probably Hordes of Chaos by Kreator anyways

If I take a look at albums that were released in that year: - In a negative way: Tristania's Ashes. I anticipated that album so badly and was so disappointed with it when it was released. - In a positive way: Lacrimosa's Lichtgestalt. Probably the best album from that year and I remember some other albums being released, but Lichtgestalt was one of the albums I listened through and through when it was released and is nowadays still one of album that are very dear to me.

When I think of music and grad year, I remember that damn Black Eyed Peas "I Gotta Feeling", it was played at graduation, formal, every after formal party. It seemed that everywhere I went some group of jock loving princess low IQ overly obsessed with appearance daddy's girls (I'm sure you know the type) had turned the bass to 11 and were blasting it in your face whether you liked it or not.

2008, let's see. Must've been "Pulver" by Lifelover, even though that one was released a couple of years before my graduation. I played the shit out of that album and it also kinda changed me. So much happened at the same time, not only my graduation but I bought the album, with no idea what it really was. I saw a bad ass album cover and that one of the songs was named "M/S Salmonella", a play on the name "M/S Amorella" which is the boat me and my friends always take when we go on our cruises. Strangely enough, the cruise we took right after I bought the album changed my life forever since I met this girl and she would seem to have a huge impact on my life thereafter...

Wow, I was listening to: Dio - Last In Line Grim Reaper - See You In Hell Iron Maiden - Powerslave Judas Priest - Defenders of the Faith Metallica - Ride the Lighting Queensryche - Warning Ratt - Out of the Cellar Saxon - Crusader Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising Force And, they're all pretty damn memorable; but, I have to say I was really into Ratt my senior year (1984). The music was good and the chicks liked them too. So, it was a win-win.

04.07.2012 - 19:55 Written by Numbskull on 30.06.2012 at 15:57 WOW! An old guy like me! I graduated in 1983, I was listening to lots of AC/DC, Sabbath, Ozzy... but the album of '83 was Def Leppards Pyromania. Me and my buddies played that cassette to death while cruising weekends. After grad, got into Maiden, Dio, Priest, etc. No hair metal for me.

05.07.2012 - 00:00 Written by I_Die_Often on 04.07.2012 at 19:55 Well met sir! May I say you have great taste in music! I've been listening to Sabbath since 77' and they are my favorite band. I really got into AC/DC in the late 70's and played the hell out of Back In Black; but, have always preferred the Bon Scott era. I also played the shit out of the first 2 Ozzy albums in the early 80's. I have to admit that I did listen to some Hair-Metal, as it was everywhere. Throughout the 80's, I listened to Heavy-Metal and Thrash at least 95% of the time. Only from time to time would I listen to Hard-Rock or Hair-Metal. The Hard-Rock has held up well over the years ? the Hair-Metal not so much.

Let's see. Spring 2003, when I graduated, the album I was listening to most that had come out that same year was Damnation by Opeth. The other albums I was obsessing over had come out in 2002 or were by Pain of Salvation... or in the case of Remedy Lane, both.

Lemme see here, 2005... 2005 wasn't really a memorable year for me as far as albums go. City by Strapping Young Lad and that's about it. I remember being pretty let down by Ghost Reveries, and indeed that was the year I kinda stopped listening to Opeth. Whereas the following year, five of my all-time favorite albums were released. Go figure.

I was into death metal and thrash and slightly dabbing into progressive metal in 1990. Pro's and Con's: Pros's : Seeing Rush live on Presto Tour that summer; Listening to Spiritual Healing 1236 times; Being absolutely blown away by Act III and Left Hand Path Con's : What the fuck kind of Maiden album is this? ; More radio airplay for Empire than any other metal cd EVER; Watching Alice In Chains getting shit thrown at them and booed off the stage on Clash Of Titans tour, how fucking classless and embarrassing.
