Never connected to that album. 

To Loveless?
I don't want to sound snobby or anything but yeah, it's not really for everyone... It also kind of requires multiple listens

 

[conkerman]

Its not snobby at all. 
 
I must admit I struggle with shoegaze a bit. For example, I love Ferment, but much of the other shoegaze classics leave me cold. 
 
I am the same with Radiohead. The rest of my music collection points to me liking them, but I really, really don't.
 
Swings and roundabouts.
 
I will try Loveless again though. Promise.

I bought "Ferment" and "Chrome" by Catherine Wheel and thought I was a shoegaze fan.  But after digging deeper in the genre, turns out I wasn't.  "Loveless" has gradually grown on me through the years.  I still don't love the album, but I like it now.  "Sometimes" is one of my favorite songs by any band.  I love "The Bends", "OK Computer" and "In Rainbows" by Radiohead.  I like some songs on the others albums, but I have a hard time hearing the other albums from start to finish.

Eek, so tough. I'd have to go with My Bloody Valentine: Loveless. But damn, are there some close contenders:
 
Atheist: Unquestionable Presence
Slint: Spiderland
Talk Talk: Laughing Stock
A Tribe Called Quest: The Low End Theory

We need one of these for every year.  This is fun to check on Wikipeed to see what came out when.

Yeah, it's a pretty fun exercise,. I've had that Whitley CD for twenty some years. Not sure I've had it since it was released, but pretty close. I've had Into The Great Wide Open, which was also mentioned for quite a while too. I've also had the Fire Inside by Seger since it came out in 91, and it still gets an occasional listen. No one mentioned that one, so a tip of the hat to Bob.
