| My music obsession really happened around 9th grade. Don't get me wrong, My dad got me into Mortification when I was like 3 or 4. Fond memories riding around with him blasting Scrolls of the Megilloth on cassette. But up until about when I was in 9th grade, I never really was obsessed with music. I would just occasionally listen to it; usually Mortification, sometimes Soundgarden or Rage Against the Machine(can you believe it?) But one day I heard a song that really changed me, I am a Viking by Yngwie Malmsteen. I asked my dad about him and he happened to have Rising Force on vinyl as well as a best of on cd. My birthday came just a few weeks after and he got me Marching Out on cd. It was from there that I started listening to Yngwie nonstop. I also borrowed my dad's guitar and taught myself like crazy till I could play some Yngwie songs. From there I just gradually got into Megadeth, Judas Priest, Dio, and eventually just got addicted to all kinds of thrash. My cd collection has been growing ever since, as has my guitar collection. Now in my spare time I'm either listening to music or writing and recording it. So yeah, Yngwie Malmsteen was the first musician that really got me into music. | |
