The Holy Bible by the Manics got me into rock music really, while Blackwater Park by Opeth and Train of Thought by Dream Theater got me into more proggy metal.

Stormblast by Dimmu Borgir got me into black metal and The Sound Of Perseverence by Death got me into death metal.

The Bronx's first album got me back into (proper) punk.

Any Minute Now and Nite Versions by Soulwax did a lot for my appreciation of dance music as well. As did Louden Up Now by !!!.

Oliver! got me into musicals btw.

And I have a confession: Lenny Kravitz's "Let Love Rule" got me into the genre of Lenny Kravitz for a whole album and one track off the second one. The shame of it.
