Music acts that were really good but who you now hate.

[Kirstie]

You need to keep taking the drugs for them to sound good.

LOL I think it's just that I mellowed!

Nick Drake

Hasn't done anything quality recently, his early albums were so good.

 

[Ashtrayhead]

Lab 4
Juno Reactor
KMFDM

Who:?:

Haven't you heard the new KMFDM? One of their best, IMHO.

 

[SamNichols]

Snow Patrol's first two albums were good. Then their third one was average and they descended into rubbish.
Coldplay's first two albums were nice enough.

 

[Tetedelacourse]

Frank Ifield - a one trick pony...

I remember hi-immm

Hate is a very strong word. The only one I can think of is "You're Unbelievable" by some bunch of little pricks. I may have liked it the first few times, but quickly started to hate it with a passion.

 

[KitsuneAndy]

No I've not made them up, they all used to be fairly big acts on the Industrial/Techno scene in the early 90s. Essentially they all had reasonable CDs out that defined their sound but within a couple of releases just went really pants...

I actually liked KMFDM's WWIII album, It's currently on my mp3 player..

Ministry lost their way a little bit I feel though, but Psalm 69 and The Land of Rape and Honey are always somewhere to hand.

Paradise Lost turned into Depeche Mode on their 'Host' album, definitely a bad move.

The White Stripes - Never did think they were any good though, but others did, anyone familiar with The Pixies or Frank Black's albums will notice the blatant rip off vocal style though.

 

[Elmer Fudd]

Just seen Duran Duran on JR.
Quite impressed !!! (or is that a youth recapture type thing ?)

EMF (Or, Earth Mother Fuckers)

 

[Elmer Fudd]

I liked Spin Doctors for a while and then.........
Still into Bowie tho' although he did hit a crap stage I personally like what he's done in the last few years.

Same here,expected to be embarrasing,but was impressed.

Metallica the signs started to show on Justice for All then the commercialism of the Black Album followed by two episodes of Load then the noise of St Anger. Sad Sad from the same Band who wrote Fade to Black, Creeping Death Disposable Heroes Motorbreath et all.

IMHO Metallica died with Cliff Burton. They managed the Black Album without him (just) but everything since has been shoot.

.

I love that album. That, and Pantera's Vulgar Display of Power are the two albums that completely changed my musical tastes.

 

[Rhythm Thief]

As a Dexy's anorak, how do you get on with 'Don't Stand Me Down'?

I desperately want to like it but I can't.

Don't Stand Me Down is easily the best album which is also a commercial flop ever.
