Tool – Opiate Opiate is a badass album, and it was my first real introduction to Tool. I distinctly remember purchasing Opiate in the electronics section at our local FRED MEYER when I was 16 years old.

300 Albums: Social Distortion – Sex, Love and Rock ‘n’ Roll
Social Distortion – Sex, Love and Rock ‘n’ Roll I’m not sure why I ever owned this album. Social Distortion has never been one of my favorite bands, and this album was released in 2004- long after the bulk of my CD buying was done. If you were to take a poll of my friends and ask them what bands…
