I was in my Freshman year of high school and my brother came back from his first year at UCLA with a bunch of indie rock "essential" albums. One being Daydream Nation. Little while later, I took a summer job and Daydream Nation became pretty much the only thing I would listen to plus Loveless and Without A Sound.
Wake up to Teen Age Riot, driving to work at 4:30am to The Sprawl, Cross The Breeze, Eric's Trip, and Providence, then drive home in the blistering So Cal heat at 3pm with Candle and the Trilogy songs on full volume. Great times. Since then, I've been looking into them.
