yep, me too. I remember when Ten thousand fists came out when I was in 7th Grade and becoming infatuated with that album. David Draimen was my favorite vocalist throughout middle school. I still listen to that cd when i'm feeling nostalgic.

Long ago...

I remember i was in Rockfabrik in Ludwigshafen. They played Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love. Over the Years my taste developed more and more. From Hardrock to Heavy Metal to Thrash Metal and now Death Metal/Metalcore/Deathcore.

For me it was kind of a slow progression, but I'd say it was Papa Roach (via a mixture of The Prodigy ("It's metal coz we f**king say it is" - Metal Hammer), Incubus, Marilyn Manson, G'n'R and Linkin Park...back when they were good)

I think ive already posted but what the hell. I started with just rock and alternative at first, like Placebo, The Butterfly Effect, Grinspoon and After the fall. But the the bands' that got me in to metal were System Of A Down and most notably Fear Factory. Hearing Digimortal for the first time was like Nothing i'd Ever experienced or heard. The double bass drumming i particularly loved aswell as burton's vocals. Since then i havent looked back. But funnily enough it was fear factory's older albums like Soul of a New Machine that i heard first and crisis was my favourite song. I guess Fear Factory also gave me a little opening into Death Metal aswell. (death/thrash)

First metal like artist I got into would be Andrew WK I guess. Not really metal but sorta pop metal with punk elements, then Rage Against the Machine. Rammstein was the first to trigger full interest in metal.
