Happened to me with "Scarsick" by POS today! The first time I tried I only made it through the first few songs, but after going back through TPE and getting more accustomed to their sound, I tried it again and liked it! I wouldn't say it clicked straight away but after a few more listens it should be great! :)

I call that the Meshuggah effect. The most memorable time an album clicked for me was Chaosphere; the first time I listened to it I really didn't get it at all. I came back to it like a year later and I could practically hear the click in my head as what they were doing came together in my head. Therefore, it's the Meshuggah effect.  :biggrin:

It's a really good feeling.

The best thing is an instantaneous click though, like - the moment you put on an album the first time and you're like "holy crap that was amazing" - and you walk away after listening to the album 100% blown away.

Albums have been clicking very quickly, recently. It's been a really long time since I've had that feeling.

I think the last one has to have been Devin Townsend's Infinity, and that was a good 3 months ago.
Orion....that's the one with a bunch of power chords and boringly harsh vocals, isn't it?

Usually an album either clicks with me right away or it doesn't.  The only time I consider something a grower is if it's part of a genre I'm unfamiliar with.  For example, I used to hate death metal, so I really wasn't impressed with Ghost Reveries.  But now I consider it the best album ever.
"All great works are prepared in the desert, including the redemption of the world. The precursors, the followers, the Master Himself, all obeyed or have to obey one and the same law. Prophets, apostles, preachers, martyrs, pioneers of knowledge, inspired artists in every art, ordinary men and the Man-God, all pay tribute to loneliness, to the life of silence, to the night." - A. G. Sertillanges

Colors by BTBAM took the longest. I must of played it about 20 times in the background whilst I was playing WoW, then one day I listened to it by itself and I was all like

ALL albums are growers for me, I don't know why. Even by favorite bands, each album needs multiple spins before I "get it". Don't know why.

I'm the same too. I don't think an album has ever clicked for me on the first listen.

More often than with whole albums I have this with songs. It's not unusual for me that my list of favourite/least favourite songs on the album turns by 180 degrees after 10 listens or so. Or there's one "THIS IS AWESOME" song that I love since the first listen but the rest changes all the time.

Love the feeling.

Interesting enough, the albums I really love the most are the albums that took several spins before clicking, some of them didn't really interest me at all the first 4-5 times, but started to grow a lot after that.
On the contrary, albums that DO click on the first time, are often the albums that becomes worse and worse with each listen.  :lol

Yeah, I can't agree with that at all. A ton of my favorite albums I've loved from the first listen.

I like it when I have to relisten an album a couple of times before it 'clicks' (whatever you want to say by that anyway), makes me enjoy the music more.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:
