I didnt get into metal till I was about 16. I heared Anthrax's Sound of White Noise and became a total metal maniac.
Music from when you were growing up?

I grew up listening to Kiss, Mötley Crüe, Ratt, Cinderella, Ozzy, Def Leppard, Twisted Sister. All thanks to my 5 year older sister. Anyone remember Mick Wall and the "monsters of rock" show on sky channel? That's were I first saw Iron Maiden, Exodus, Slayer, Venom, Celtic Frost, Anthrax.
Take me back to those heavy times!

The first group I really liked was AC/DC back when they released Dirty Deeds in the States - 1981. I was into The Who during their initial farewell tour (1982) and I also liked Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Rush and Triumph. MTV would play quite a bit of Def Leppard off High N Dry and Judas Priest so my tastes got a little heavier. Iron Maiden soon followed.
My first exposure to Anthrax was on a college Heavy Metal radio show that I used to listen to in high school. They played "Armed & Dangerous" and said it was by a cool band from NYC...must have been summer of 1985.

Kinston Trio came from my parents. My dad loves folk music. CCR and Kinston Trio was what he mainly listened to. I like CCR still, but the Trio I think is a bigger shock.
Glad everyone likes this thread. Good to see where everyone came from originally to get to Thrax.
