K-os's Hymns for Disco. It came off of my favorite album by him and I had some expectations that were standard. Not high, not low. When I listened to it, I thought it was ok. Not bad but nothing great.
After a few years, something clicked and it would up being my 2nd favorite k-os album.
Nimrod was mentioned a while ago. I loved it the 1st time I heard it since there was so much variety with it. It's my favorite Green Day album and it is my happy album. Insomniac is ok...it's just a little too close to Dookie and meh...it's ok.
janet likes her new icon.
Pretty much anything by The Ramones. Then I heard London Calling and my attitude changed immediately toward punk and alt.

He's a Dum-Dum, but he's my Dum-Dum
"I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love" by My Chemical Romance was something I was really disappointed with when I first listened to it, since I had heard it was their hardest/heaviest/rawest album and then was disappointed when I didn't a get a full album that sounded like "I Never Told You What I Do For A Living". I decided to give another a shot a while later and eventually grew to love it as much as Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge and later, The Black Parade.
Still not hot on Danger Days, though.
I didn't understand Earl Sweatshirt;s Some Rap Songs at first, but after repeated listens, I think it's one of the most interesting rap albums of last year.
