| Post subject: | Artists that completely changed their sound |
I am looking for examples of artists/bands who developed into something completely unrecognizable to the sound they started out with Two really good examples of this are Fleetwood Mac (started as a blues group, developed into the band that made Rumours) and Goo Goo Dolls (started as a Husker-Du influenced punk band, developed into power-balladeers). Beastie Boys too. |

Fleetwood Mac is a great example. The Eagles went from soft, California country to a more rock sound when Joe Walsh joined. |

Silverchair and Green Day are two that come to mind |

I don't think The Eagles, Silverchair, or Green Day are drastic enough of a change to qualify here. |

Pyogenesis Original sound: Nine years later: I believe it's even the same vocalist and everything. |

Not sure if Fleetwood Mac counts. Buckingham, Nicks, and Christine McVie were the chief songwriters once they joined. The earlier group was led by Peter Green. |

Genesis changed a lot from 1967 to the 90s. |

What about Pink Floyd? Their early stuff with Syd was quite different from say, The Wall. |

Of course they count. Practially two different bands. And there was also a long period in between Green leaving and Buckingham/Nicks joining. They even had a few moderate hits in that period. |
