Embarassing Music Purchases

(1/27) > >>

Storm Rider:
Everyone has them: CDs you bought that embarass you when you look back on them.

I'll go first: I have two Linkin Park CDs. In my defense, I was 14 and was having emotional problems. I just haven't gotten around to getting rid of them in 3 years.

practicality:
I didn't purchase it, but I am embarrassed for liking Evanescence. (I probably would have bought it if I, you know, had money)

El Opium:
My very first CD purchase was "Americana" by The Offspring when I was fourteen (A very common exuse) and well, how was I suppose to know there were better things? My younger self would surely have hated Birchville Cat Motel or Skullflower anyway. I also had a huge collection of Greenday CDs which I sold a long time ago. I've kept the Offspring disk simply because it was my first. What's there to be embarrassed about? I don't see any point in guilt for my musical past.

lastclearchance:
I'm not really embarrassed by any of my musical purchases. I liked them when I bought them, and then my tastes changed, so now I don't have them anymore. Is that so bad?

And I say that having owned Insane Clown Posse's "Amazing Jeckel Brothers" back in 1999.

I mean, my music is only embarrassing when I still own it and it contradicts a musical image I have for myself. Like, say, the Yellowcard album I have that doesn't exactly match all the indie stuff I have. But I figure, if I can't deal with the fact that not all my music is "cool," then why bother listening at all?

Rizzo:
What the hell guys? You're all way behind the times.
I got that kind of crap when I was twelve. By the time I was 14 I was listening to Dead Kennedys, Rancid, Sex Pistols and NOFX. Some might argue that's just as bad but they don't know how much fun NOFX is.
I'm 18 now by the way so I suspect we're about the same age.
Current embarrasing CDs? NONE! We have a record store in Auckland that buys second hand CDs for a decent price so the bad ones are all long gone.  Yussssssssssssss.
