Well the first album I ever bought was Demon Days - The Gorillaz me and my friend group were obsessed. We'd pretend we were the characters and swing on the swing sets during recess listening to the albums on repeat. Ahh cringe kids in 5th grade. Whatsup Charlie and Andrew if you're out there. I was very into metal so alot of that, Lamb of God, Behemoth, Cradle of Filth etc, into sad boi gothy shit like Sopor Aeternus and fun boi goth shit like Voltaire the singer lol. And more normal stuff too, got pretty into dubstep during the dubstep days too lmao

Spice by Spice Girls was the only album I owned until their second album Spice World. I got into Nirvana and the Chef Aid South Park album a year later, but by the time I started getting into rock music and weening off pop I was thirteen.

So at twelve the only albums I owned and listened to were the first two Spice Girls albums. I may have had some freebie compilation albums from Top Of The Pops magazine, but I can only remember one song from them and that was the Na Na Na No Sweat one.

My main thing at 11 was Power Rangers, 12 Spice Girls, 13 N64 and South Park, 14 onwards rock music.

12 is an interesting age and good post by you.

Very little access to anything but the radio and Midnight Special on Fridays and Don Kirschner's Rock concert on Saturday. Even then money was tight being 12, I could hold a cassette recorder to the radio or get the 45's when they came out.

Most of these came from my school mates that allowed me to listen to their music. I was so lucky that hard rock was a big thing in my school so I listened to my favorite genre of music.
