Who was the first band you go into in your "younger years" or even now?
For me the first band I ever obsessed over was Green Day, back in the days of the cassette tape. Then I went on a Bush and Nirvana binge for a while.
Also, what was the first website you remember going to when you first discovered the web (valid links no pron)?

First band would have to be Dream Theater. Strange for a little kid xD. I can't even remember the first website I visited. I think it might have been NintendoLand or something like that.

uhm... probably really old Offspring on cassette, and Nirvana.
one of my first sites was actually Furcadia.. totally random. It got me started on online chatting and roleplay when I was about eleven.

Guns n' Roses, still one of my favorite bands. And I guess the first metal band I started listening to was... Metallica. Old stuff, not any of the new :skull::skull::skull::skull:. And as for black metal, Mayhem. If it weren't for Emperor and Burzum being my next choices I probably wouldn't have given it any more thought.

First album I bought was The Human League. Very inspirational to me. :p
The first bands I truly got into were Pulp, Blur, and Oasis; verging on obsession... :rolleyes2
I think the first web page I looked at was some crappy French thing for revision at school, way before I went to college. :mad:
Probably Alice Cooper or Iron Maiden (That i'll admit to anyway!)
Website: I have absolutely no idea, i remember winding up some americans online some time around 1994

My first ISP was actually Compuserve. Very short lived followed by Prodigy. I loved Prodigy to death, especially their bulletin boards and such. Lots of RPG'ing going on there.
I remember as well always needing to buy new casettes like every couple months because I'd warn the old ones out.

My first music was Blink 182. :D
And website was Neopets, I think. xD
The first band I ever "obsessed" about was Rammstein. I despised any music that my brother listened to, simply because he listened to it, and the only thing my parents listened to in the car was country which I just plain don't like. Thus, having resented any music from my brother and simply disliking my parents' music, I really never listened to any music at all until about two or three years ago.
The first websites I ever went to were nintendo.com, neopets.com, and yahoo.com.
greenday and offspring were my first 2 bands i enjoyed.
my first website seeing as i got introduced into computers late in my life was no lie (http://www.eyesonff.com/)
besides google that is seeing as i used google to find it i believe.

I don't think there was a band that I was crazy about as a kid, but I was definitely very much into Michael Jackson (and I kinda still am - child molester or not, he's a musical genius) and Janet Jackson as well.
I have no idea what the first website I ever visited was, though.

Rush and, more heavily, Tool.
The first website that I visited frequently was TFF.

My first was like Nickleback. I mean I knew about 60's rock and the such but was not a fan, I just listened. So I'm more of a new generation rock listener.
Thankfully and subsequently I listened to Bon Jovi and other such artists from a more appropriate era, so I was saved. However, and to be honest, I only listen to rock because I like drums (explains why I also like DnB)

Actually when I was really really little I was obsessed with Weird AL, so I guess that counts as a real first. I also did admire MJ as well.

Green Day Dookie was the first album I ever owned. I was in 4th grade. I use to play Marathon and listen to that CD all day long back then.

That was one of the first as well, along with their older stuff which I really couldn't get into. Of course cd/casette for me. I was really good at ruining those things!

The first (true) band I ever got into was Van Halen, but that was around the time I was trying to figure out which style I liked most. Before then I was obsessed with Weird Al. Seriously. Anyway, Van Halen quickly switched to Guns 'n Roses, then Green Day, then My Chemical Romance, then Hawthorne Heights. Skip a few favorites, and now I'm in love with Chiodos and Atreyu. :D
First website? Hmm...it was way back when I was little...I think it was garfield.com (I was obsessed with Garfield the cat as a kid, I still have almost all of the books :) )

The first REAL band I started listening to was Led Zeppelin. Well there were other bands before that (AC/DC, Velvet Revolver, Rolling Stones, etc...) but I really don't listen to those bands much anymore. And then the band that got me listening to all the metal (which makes up the majority of what I listen to nowadays) was Opeth. Hmmmm, the first website I remember going to was gamefaqs.com.

the first band i ever listened to was metallica. The song, "Enter Sandman" put me to sleep every day! due to the lyrics, "its just the beasts under you're bed...in your closet, in your head" made me realize monsters dont exist.

Alice in Chains, Days of the New, Metallica, The Tea Party, Tool, Sublime, Powderfinger, PJ Harvey, Ben Harper and Portishead.
Those were the main bands I listened to when I first started getting into music at around 13-years-old, courtesy of my sister.
Also, the first websites I used was Webcrawler, Yahoo, and some fan websites for games (mainly Final Fantasy 7 and Ocarina of Time, when they first came out).

Okay :( f me, but the first two bands I ever heavily obsessed about were the Spice Girls and Westlife. After watching a documentary on Westlife on TV I actually...drew Westlife-loving words and symbols all over a pair of jeans I owned. Cursed beings. To this day I am mocked, as the girl who used to own a pair of Westlife jeans.
My current phase of music began when I started listening to my dad's old Pink Floyd CDs :p And here I am. Full circccle

The first "band" I got into was Buddy Holly and the Crickets by way of my father's old records.
It's a shame that this generation will never know him past being "the guy in that Weezer song". If "The Day The Music Died" had never happened, he would've been bigger than Elvis.
My first band would be Oasis, who I heard a lot of in my early years because my sister was a fan, and wouldn't stop playing (What's The Story) Morning Glory in the car. The first band I got into on my own would be something pop-punky like Green Day or Millencolin, when I was twelve or so.
Oh, and my first website was Jake's Animorphs Site. Yay Geocities!
