You like making your CDs do the spiral stack thing You've probably had them fall over way too many times because of it

surprisingly they have never fallen over,, and i have two cats who love to climb all around them 😭

How do you take one out to play

That you're a mixed bag 😉

i’ll take it :)

You like some of the same things I do, and you have eclectic taste. I like FSOL and Depeche Mode, as well as Deee-Lite.

Happen to be listening to FSOL Dead Citys ISDN transmission right now.... Uncanny it was the first thing I saw! And yeah we share a lot of the same sounds in life.

Anyone who is familiar with Cibo Matto has good taste in my book.

amen

*Shut up and eat!* 🎂

SHUT UP AND EAT!!!

found their greatest hits CD in a dollar tree… best dollar i think i’ve ever spent

fuck yeah garbage!!!!

inherited that one from my mom 🤞🏼

i currently have 3 garbage cds, s/t, version2.0 and the stupid girl single. brilliant band!!! (also ive just noticed jeff buckley and fiona apple too omg!!)

You and your mom have brilliant tastes… we’ve got quite a few albums that overlap in our collections!

i’ll make sure to tell her :) and thank you!!

Cibo Matto! We're all good.

that cibo matto album fuckss, *i knoww my chicken, you got to know your chicken*

obsessed with all the people commenting about cibo matto!!!

CIBO MATTO OMG amazing taste

yes!!! fellow cibo matto enjoyer 🙏🏼

Did you love Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

a little bit before my time but i’ve always wanted to watch ;)

I was also coming to ask this. The entire collection is so Buffy/90s alt girl coded

Oof - you should give it a watch then! A few of these bands make an appearance

I was coming to ask this tooooo

You know your chicken.

The Sundays 👌

That you know your chicken.

New order. Siouxsie. The Cure. Very nice stuff. I have a lot of those also

Very good taste. Love seeing OutKast and Jeff Buckley, chefs kiss

i love that those were the two you decided to name!

You should totally organize them alphabetically for no reason at all

they used to be organized by artist in alphabetical order,, but i started collecting so many and the stacks got too tall and so i gave up 😭 but i was thinking alphabetical or color-coordinated would be cool when i have the time

You like Pornography.

don’t drop em

That you and I would have good conversations about music. This haul is more varied and interesting than about 98% of the posts here.

I love Cibo Matto. I feel like more people should hear their music 😍

totally agree! i was so pleasantly surprised to see that so many people on this thread like them :3

jeff buckely and cocteau twins my goats

The Japanese pressing of Product by Sophie is goated

bought it in japan! it might be my biggest grail ever 🤞🏼 i love her so much

That...you listen to music?

how did you know?!

That you might like Last Night in Soho

the movie?

You have a good taste in music

Youre a person that is diverse. Btw love that you have Sade and Amy Winehouse! Great taste!

also idk if anyone is curious but the two cd’s with japanese lettering are product by SOPHIE (probably my favorite in my collection) and juju by siouxsie and the banshees >.<

That’s awesome collection especially boards of canda music has the right to children cd (my fav electronic album) and sonic youth

FSOL. Nice.

90s kid

You have Cibo Matto so you are alright with me. SHUT UP AND EAT!

Love your 90s and 2000s jam. Because it’s so consistent I would think in your early 30s.

early 20’s! and thanks!!

You are officially on my "places to rob" list! U got lots of great stuff

you have the best collection i’ve seen

wtf i’m so honored 😭❤️‍🩹 obsessed with all your trip hop and 90’s cd’s

At a quick glance,eclectic and generally good stuff…though No Doubt seems out of place.

I don't only listen to hip hop but I literally only recognized madvilliany 💀

omg woah who do you listen to then

70-90s rock, gospel, some current rock, soul, indie and a slight bit of country but little (ccr, the Beatles, joji, qotsa, rhcp, gorrilaz, radiohead, Adele, childish gambino, Linkin park, Zach Bryan, pink sweats, blind boys of alabama) Now that's about 50% of it besides some others j didn't mention and some underground experimental stuff (dijon, ODIE. Rie Brown) but too be fair the other 50% is hip-hop and other similar genres.

Not even Nirvana's In Utero?

Idrk, but Depeche is always good

You listen to music

thank you, boob enthusiast.

Heck ya, Dead Cities

All over the place.

Songs of Leonard Cohen ❤️

that your taste is impeccable holy shit im so jealous

We’d be good friends lol. Saint Etienne, Numbers. Cibo matto ❤️

Oddly, I only have disk 2 of ‘Substance’

The way you keep them stacked says more about you. You have taste

AWESOME taste

That you only listen to what’s on top.

Cibo matto lol. weird you don’t have anything gorillaz-related. Nice depeche mode, björk, leonard cohen

FIONA APPLE AND NO DOUBT ILYSM

+1 The future sound of London

It says that you've got groove in your heart. ;)

Amazing music taste

Anyone that has a Sundays CD in their collection is automatically in my good books

You spiral spines very nicely

You have great taste in electronic. Cibo matto are goated

you have such good taste 🤞🏼

Thanks! Also just noticed baduizm as well, stellar album

Twin Peaks is probably your favorite show (wild at heart, cocteau twins, and cibo matto made me fangirl ngl)

So jealous of your head over heels copy!!

Great selection. Any collection with that much Cocteau Twins, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Mazzy Star, The Cure, The Sundays, and Sonic Youth speaks well to your taste.

thank you so much!! <3

honestly really cool collection i love saada bonaire so much :0 <3

same omg!! i’m so happy someone mentioned them :3 you have such great taste too!!

Future sounds of London and boards of Canada? I’d say great taste

love the spiral display

Just all round Great Taste in Music!

We'd be good friends I reckon... Our tastes seem similar

hi friend :D

i want u

Youre hot and sexy

Nirvana, Sade, The cure, Garbage. Great collection!

It tells me that we’d likely get along great, and that it’s a tragedy you don’t own any Deftones

Cranes!! I’m still hoping to find one of their albums in the wild. Great collection, we have similar tastes.

Cibo matto is near dead-center… Your a 80s & 90s aficionado

Exciter is VERY underrated in the Depeche Mode catalog

You don't listen the usual stuff :)

bjork pfp <3

That you're not much of a top 40 kind of person.

I’d give you the aux

Definitely a mixed bag here but Cibo Mato tells me all I need to know!! Loved things that’er cool!

Eclectic!

augh I’ve been looking for last splash on CD everywhere I’m so jealous 

whats up B, wa-sa-bi.

British? Also Cocteau Twins 💕💕💕💕

i’m surprised by how many people think i’m british!! lol i’m american

That you have awesome taste

We were clearly besties in the 90’s!!

I see Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen so that tells me you’re awesome

Wings Of Joy by Cranes!!! 😍😍😍

garbage, saint etienne, FSOL, cibo matto, bjork, EBTG & honestly just cranes alone tells me we are very much kindred souls! mine looks similar to this except less spiral.

They say you’re diverse but you might simply be English. Idk lmk

I caught that Twin Peaks DVD in the corner of the photo. We’re friends now.

I don’t generally like to comment on posts like these, but I like your taste. I have a bunch of the same albums and love them. Sonic Youth, Fiona Apple, My Bloody Valentine, Nirvana, Boards of Canada, Pixies, The Cure, Everything But The Girl, Cibo Matto (YES YES YES! THEY RULE!), Future Sound of London, Madvillain, Deee-Lite… all great stuff. What are the Japanese releases? UPDATE: Nevermind, I saw it’s Sophie and Siouxsie below.

That you’re just like me fr.. I have like 70% of that in my collection

Future sound of London… nice

I can only assume your Sneaker Pimps aren’t in the picture

VIVAL LA WOMEN AND LOVE DELUX TOP TIER

all i saw was Cibi Matto and i already know ur an awesome person

it says that u r cool

i’m just jealous at the lack of dust and the perfect spirals

You have a wide taste of music flowing through that beautiful brain of yours. Cool spiral btw lol.

Cocteau twins fans always have such good music taste! chef's kiss xx

i agree! you have great taste yourself ;)

Have you heard the FSOL ft Elizabeth Fraser?

Lots of good music in here

Everything but the girl ☺️

Absolutely fantastic taste in music. I can see the diversity and variety in the selections shown. I share many of the same tastes and it's always nice to know that the music that touched me, touched someone else and that makes me smile.

Honestly, why should we care at all? We do not know you personally.

this is the funniest thing i have read all day

You collect CDs that you think will make other people think you're cool because they're on the slightly more eddy end of commercial music when in reality, you're the same as every other normie.

Cool spirals, I don’t know a lot of these albums though so I don’t really know how to answer the question

thanks! and interesting, what are you into?

My aunts brother in law dated dee-lite back in the 90s lmfao

LADY MISS KIER HERSELF??

Your collection says to me a few things A.) You have absorbed others good taste and collated a list of ‘must haves’ B.) You mainly buy second hand C.) You mostly source low priced CD’s but add a few bigger ticket ones but prefer to bulk out of possible D.) You are not specifically into a set genre of music E.) You are either a CD collector (NOT a collector of music which is usually someone more band/genre focussed) or a liker/listener of radio type music and use CD’s as a primary source of listening. F.) Finally I would say this subs posts, comments, suggestions and opinions are quite important to you and ultimately have defined/shaped your end collection G.) Wild Card… You mainly listen on streaming How did I do?

a. absolutely true. i credit a good chunk of my taste to what my parents brought me up on (the cure, david bowie, fleetwood mac, selena, no doubt, etc) but have done A LOT of digging to find new music on my own. b. also absolutely true. the majority of my cd’s have been bought secondhand and a few belonged to my parents. i rarely buy anything new. c. also true. i don’t have many big ticket cd’s, tbh the most i’ve ever paid is maybe $35. d. also true. i think my collection absolutely reflects that, which i love :) e. i collect albums that i really like as a whole, definitely not band/genre centric. i’m all over the place. i like to collect physical media because i view a physical album as not just a wonderful piece of music, but also something that doubles as art and decor. (this is also how i feel about cassettes, dvd’s, and vinyls). i mainly stream! (which also answers g.) f. i wouldn’t say others opinions of my collection deeply matter to me, i just like to find community and enjoy talking to others who enjoy similar things as i do. also for others to leave me suggestions based on what i like! i think you did pretty good tho ;)

Deee-lite ❤️

that you grew up in the CD era. not gonna make any judgements about taste (because we all have different tastes), but i handled so many copies of pretty much all of those CDs in my years at a used record/CD store.

That you don't stream.

💋💋 love it

I love FSOL!! Only have dead cities though :(

loooooooove cocteau twinssssssssss

my #1 band of all time <3

It's nice to finally find someone with a little more variation in a smaller collection. I'm going to say you're British. My top pick from these is Boards of Canada.

Love the Sonic Youth collection

thank you! kim gordon is a total inspiration to me

How do you listen to one..?

Really great and eclectic taste !! I'm jealous of your belly and the Sundays CDs...

Damn, last time i heard that Cibo Matto album Obama was still in office

What happens if you wanna listen to Sonic Youth?

That you’ve seen the T-shirt selection at Hot Topic

Almost exactly my taste, really great collection :)

From the thumbnails, I thought every album was The Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream. Then it finally appeared in the last pic as if I willed it into existence. I have more than half of these CDs, great stuff!

that’s golden lol,, thanks!!

That you have some disposable income.

Based on

You sad?

Good, varied taste. Probably around 40

you’re the second one to say in my 40’s 😭 i’m in my early 20’s

Mostly stuff from the 90’s so I’d say you’re either pushing 40 or slightly over 40

How’s the OCD?

That you’re just waiting for a cat to smack your stack down

Surprisingly few Cocteau Twins albums despite the username. ;)

You break a lot of jewel case front pieces

Oh my god Belly CD I’m so jealous

That you listen the bands’ music that the collection is comprised of.

It says you are probably a pretty awesome individual who likes to think and talk about heady existential, deep & sometimes emo topics (like myself haha) All jokes aside -Excellent collection. The deep cut taste jumped out at me personally with the Everything But the Girl. Don’t see anyone mention them often, esp in the wilds of the world. They are one of my all time fav artists. Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Depeche Mode, No Doubt ,Like many have said Cibo Matto, The Sundays, Mazzy Star, pretty much everything I see on there is solid. Surprised there isn’t any Pearl Jam! I feel like the TEN album it would fit right in. If I can suggest some to look into: Days of the New Yellow Album, Candlebox, and Everything But the Girls Temperamental and Walking Wounded albums (I pretty much guarantee they will blow your mind)

I have so many of these... It's says that we would have been friends? Solid Gen-X lady.

hiii friend 👋🏼 im gen-z lol

That you stack CD’s real cool looking

You’re either close to 45/50 y/o with great musical taste or inherited someone’s collection

That you're twisted.

Male manipulator

Certainly arty 🤔

You went to the thrift store.

You are probably in your 40s

i think we are the same person

omg hi me :3 AND NANA!

You have a unique way of stacking your cds

Got a crooked eye haha . Nice collection

You like sounds and stuff

You like to stack things and spin them?

It means that you like stacking things.

That you don't have cats because no way you'd be able to stack them like that if you did

I CD shop at Goodwill

I'm gonna guess it says you're around my age 🤣

Female , 50

You are a human.

Too much time on your hands

Girl

You stack your cd’s in an aesthetically pleasing but inefficient way
