Now I was a late bloomer with music, hated it as a child (born 1976) and didn't really get into till later.
Probably due to the sounds of the 60s being the music of NO choice in the car.
When I started to get into it myself my "growing up" artists/bands would be:
The Smashing Pumpkins
Faith No More
The Prodigy
Radiohead
Placebo
Rage Against The Machine
The Levellers
The pumpkins were my idols. I loved Billy Corgan until his ego destroyed the band .
What were your musical mentors as such ??
Edit: Also what has your musical taste progressed to ?
