More 5G Than Man
Pretty straightforward question: which album have you warmed up to the most over the time you've had it? I find it to be a fascinating phenomenon, but some albums really don't sink in fully after 20 spins. Case in point, my answer:
Radiohead - Kid A
I will get flamed for this, but...I hated Kid A at first. Absolutely hated it. I thought it was tuneless, irritating, and completely overhyped. Not sure what happened to me, but somewhere down the line my mind changed about it completely. I now consider it to be one of the very best records of the last 10 years or so. Atmospheric, cohesive, and positively chilling at times, it's not an easy pill to swallow, but I still get a sick joy out of trying, even after countless spins.
Honorable mentions:
Beatles - Sgt. Pepper
REM - Monster
Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique
