I am still a tyke when it comes to music, but I have no qualms in stating the first great album I experienced was the Gorillaz Demon Days, and then a subsequent introduction to Daft Punk's Discovery. There are very few album's nowadays that flow consistently and have every song an integral part of the whole. If one song is omitted, then the entire album is lost. Both albums here seek to convoy a story, a symphony if you will, and the progression through each song plays its part perfectly in creating a most memorable experience in music. And to think, I experienced both life-changing albums within a year, with the last being only four months ago.
(Note: I tend to be slow in picking up albums, hence the apparently-skewed time-frame between both albums. Heh. Albums released 2005 and 2001 respectively.)
