It was 2003, and I was listening to Where is the Love by Black Eyed Peas. Almost too much cringe mixed in to experience the nostalgia.
Kool & The Gang
If we’re talking about the music I had in 2001, probably something like Audio Adrenaline or The Beatles’ Lonely Hearts Club Band. Christian music and a small selection of classic rock was all my parents let me listen to at the time.
If we’re basing it on current tastes though, probably something like My Bloody Valentine’s Loveless or Orange Goblin’s Time Travelling Blues.
I had a similar upbringing, and still love My Bloody Valentine like the day I first heard them in college. More, really. I was a little disappointed to find that my new favorite genre shoegaze really just boiled down to MBV for me though haha
+1 for Audio A.
I had a minidisc ya square. And I was bumping mostly Chronic 2001 and MM LP.
.
I still miss my minidisc to this day. It was such a functional and well made device without all the bulk or skipping of CD players. It was rechargeable (your comment about the batteries made me gasp) and the writeable cartridges were a godsend. It even served as a fantastic note taker cos it had a builtin mic. I kept using mine for years after MP3 players were released because storage was so expensive (£150 for 128Mb when first released haha). I would almost consider buying one today if I had a need for an external player but alas the phone does it all these days.

whilst shaking it up and down showing my friends how it doesn’t skip.
Skipping. Damn how annoying that was!
Astro-Creep: 2000, Smash, Aenima, and Antichrist Superstar were getting a lot of play back then along with a ton of others, I had a 100ish cd case that was full.

Probably some obscure shit that I downloaded off of AudioGalaxy because it wasn’t available on CD anywhere. Gun Glub comes to mind.

London Calling by the Clash.
It got me to work every day.
I only owned CD-RW lots of Eminem, crazy train, trapt, SOAD, Metallica, linkin park, pantera, no doubt. Shit my mom probably still has all my music on our old W98 e-machine
