Mortification - Scrolls of the Megilloth.
I was about nine years. A cousin of mine brought a k7 tape and showed me the band's sound, on occasion, it was love at first listen. |

Metallica, the black album (don't hit me. I was 12.) but shortly thereafter was exposed to Mercyful Fate & King Diamond so I guess I made up for it lol

I bought Iron Maiden's Number of the beast on vinyl off the shelf. and weeks later I had Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil. But if you call Deep Purple metal i had IN rock very early in the 70s. Metallica'S rIDE tHE LIGHTNING was the first THRASH METAL ALBUM and then kILL EM ALL AND mASTER OF pUPPETS, from there I was HOOKED.

^Pretty brutal stuff to start out with. Before I started purchasing albums ( as mentioned earlier in the thread my first album was Somewhere in Time by Iron Maiden) I was actually a very big Bon Jovi fanboy ( my brother had the first four albums). So I started out vanilla style.

Nice topic :)
I think mine was Obituary's "Cause of Death".
Or maybe it could have been "Heartwork" by Carcass.

I used to listen to my mom's Ipod when I was about 9, and I listened to every possible Led Zeppelin song. I also listened to Black Sabbath, AC DC, Pearl Jam, and many more. But the first album I bought were a couple of Iron Maiden albums, "Somewhere In Time", "No Prayer For The Dying" and "Fear Of The Dark". But it's a very vague memory, not sure if they were any before that.

Oh my God!
Seeing comments like "My Moms", "My Dads" etc. makes me feel really OLD . I cant really remember my 1st "Metal" album of my own, but it was most probably KISS "Destroyer" on cassette (in 1976) and thats the only Kiss album I'd find worth my time even though I bought/was given the next 3 albums. Judas Priest's "British Steel" may have been the 2nd on LP, but I got it a few years after it debuted (I still have it). The rest of my growing Metal collection would all be on LP for the next 20+ years. I can remember my 1st Prog albums though. Sorry . . . Limp Bisquick, and Linkin Fart??? my God, I AM old . (forgive forgive . . . just couldnt let it go ) . . . Edited by MAVIIIVAM - 14 Feb 2011 at 1:20am |

Killswitch Engage isn't so embarrassing I guess, as other 'guilty pleasures' into metal as many may have, but I guess mostly I've grown old of the album. I've reviewed it if anyone's interested. [/shameless review plug]
In any event, it's much cooler to get into metal the old-school way, through hard rock into classic bands like Sabbath and Maiden. |

Well I can never forget my first 3 metal albums.
1. Helloween - Best, The Rest, The Rare 2. Metallica - Black Album 3. Manowar - Kings of Metal. Once the metal virus entered my veins... Alice Cooper - Trash and Hey Stoopid, Sepultura - Arise and Iron Maiden - Fear of The Dark consolidated quickly my new metal collection. |

This one I remember clearly, it was Best of the Beast by Iron Maiden. It was probably the third or fourth album I ever owned and the first one I bought with my own money. After a while I bought Killers, then Iron Maiden and after that Piece of Mind and Somewhere in Time. After that everything becomes blurred, can't remember precisely what followed... but after Maiden I got into Judas Priest, Dio and Helloween and those bands were the basis of my metal digging.

One of the earlier metal albums in my collection was Limp Bizkit's "Significant Other". I don't own it anymore though. |

"6 O'Clock on Christmas morning" of 1983, I got my first two records as Christmas presents from my parents. They were Def Leppard's Pyromania and Quiet Riot's Metal Health. The first record that I ever bought with my own money was a few months later and that was Judas Priest's British Steel. Edited by rushfan4 - 18 Mar 2016 at 4:51pm |

...and my "cut-off" was legendary.
Until my mother decided it smelled too badly that she burnt it

I am not at all embarrased to like KSW - or Korn, Linkin Park's first album - or even one or two Limp Bizkit songs.
I like what I like - that attitude served me well during the late 1970s - early 1980s, when I liked Maiden, AC/DC, Sabbath and Motorhead - to the disgust of everyone I knew.

My first metal album was Iron Maiden's "Somewhere in Time" back in the late 80s. My next album was Iron Maiden's "Killers". They were both cassette tapes. The first vinyl LPs I bought was AC/DCs "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" I think. Although I'm into all kinds of metal - from hard rock to death metal and a wee bit of grindcore, Maiden are still my favorites.
I don't see why Killswitch Engage is embarassing. |

Probably the first metal album I've bought, embarassingly, is Killswitch Engage's "As Daylight Dies". I listened to a bit of metal that I downloaded before that but that was the first physical album I've had.
