7 Bands Who COMPLETELY Changed Their Sound

[@felixmeinert5191]

Here's a couple more ideas for new SOS episodes: 7 best opening lines to songs 7 bands that you have grown into 7 artist collaborations that should happen 7 worst musical clichés

[@xaviercolon8695]

[@saladhands1127]

[@laurabennetzen6057]

i love the 7 best opening lines, i love the 7 artist collabs, and i love the 7 musical/ band cliches

[@davidmitchell-baker1701]

My answers/choices for those would probably go something like this... 1st suggestion: 'Hurt' by Nine Inch Nails 2nd: The Wonder Years 3rd: Dave Grohl and Royal Blood 4th: Dance music drops and shallow club lyrics

[@nritsch]

Coldplay: Indie to Alt Rock to Pop Panic! at the Disco: Alt Rock to Pretty Odd back to Alt Rock to electronic pop

[@lrlarch1706]

Coldplay's latest album is still a little pop rock (with a little disco and dance in there too). Also, Pretty Odd = Psychedelic Rock/Pop

[@sanfransiscon]

The thing wish Panic at the Disco is that somehow they transitioned into it way better than Fall Out Boy

[@Jhariah]

I guess Too Weird could be considered alternative pop and I don't even know what to call Death of Bachelor but I love it.

[@samg4337]

Indie isn't a genre.

Totally agree. No matter what style they go for, it works. While Pablo Honey and King of Limbs kind of float in the background, all their other records I thoroughly enjoyed even though they sound completely different. Love me some Radiohead.

Maroon 5's change is really upsetting to me. Songs About Jane is one of my favorite albums of all time and I wish they would've cultivated that sound instead of taking the easy pop route. Really a shame

[@NostalgiCrazy]

Like you, I cannot stand Maroon 5's latest songs!! They're trying too hard to stay trendy, I wonder if they even truly enjoy their music lately. Do you think they'll ever go back to their original sound? I loved their first 2 albums so much as a teen.

[@NostalgiCrazy]

Btw, you have nice skin and your hair and eye colors compliment each other well lol.

I am a huge fan of M5's oldest stuff. Songs About Jane used to be one of my favorite albums, and I loved their pop-rock vibe. I guess you can imagine my disappointment when I first heard V. And don't even get me started on Don't Wanna Know and Cold...

[@mbrrrrr]

ŋøctalli same :/

[@rockingbirdey]

ŋøctalli Don't Wanna Know is one of the boring and stupid songs I have ever heard. It actually made me swear off the radio coz I kept hearing it on pop and Top 40 radio

[@marcobazan4187]

I really liked their first few albums too but now they are so bland and uninteresting

[@akia8]

Me too.. I like all of their first 3 albums. But I got disappointed when they dropped 'Overexposed' album... it's such a disappointment they turned from groovy pop-rock into shitty mainstream pop. And now they are getting more and more sucks...

[@Lipip26]

Yep i love Songs About Jane, It wont be soon before long and overexposed but then the fucking V album ruined it all

A few other bands who changed drastically...Paramore, All Time Low, Alice In Chains, Pantera, Metallica (well, debatable), Ministry, Green Day, AFI, Pearl Jam, Thrice, Placebo...

[@silentassasin-q8l]

green day is also debatable, their "newer" stuff isnt THAT much different than their older stuff, at least their still a rock band and didnt go full electro pop

[@IvanChernenko]

Robert Maclean Paramore is almost pop now

[@im_tw0510]

I think Paramore 's change was awesome, I personally love after laughter.

[@FabulousKilljoy]

AFI FOR SURE. I still love them though

[@conors4430]

Punk Rocker AFI and Green Day did it pretty well, thankfully Green Day have gone back to basics and got rid of the whole rock opera thing. AFI change massively but damn did they make it work

[@ItsPascaltheOtter]

I laughed really hard for some reason when Linkin Park came up and hearing the actual change from nu metal to pop. I don't know why

[@MrJordwalk]

Probably because they're a case of failed re-invention.

[@cocobarbarian1510]

I died a little bit, as i was someone who would always say "hey i know their sound is changing but give them a chance."

[@Xakslied]

Matt Aronhalt because nu metal blows and lp recognized that and changed so they didn't go stagnant

[@evanurena8868]

CJ: Nu metal is miles better then wimpy electronic pop music, which blows even harder. Like someone else said, LP is a perfect example of failed re-invention. They were much better during their nu-metal days then they are now with One More Light.

[@JulioHernandez-vi9to]

CJ both there nu metal albums sold more than one more light will ever sell,its a good album for what its for but its terrible no presence of hahn at all,it has nothing going for them that'll survive when a new pop artist comes up with catchier pop songs/albums its market is already dominated that's why its failing its well written i own it but there best atleast the nu metal gave us some angry muwic with great lyrics with meaning,this album is just to fake it doesn't feel like a lp album now i agree its there music they do as they please but going from the heavy hunting party the one more light was a bad choice

Linkin Park is one of the few bands where I don't mind the changeup. They just make good music whatever the genre is.

[@wallofshame7311]

the Maroon 5 change pisses me off so much

[@jooree7696]

Some suggestions: Genesis (Progressive rock -> Mainstream pop) Pink Floyd (Psychedelic -> Prog -> Pop -> Ambient) Panic! At The Disco (Emo pop -> Pop) Green Day (Punk -> Pop rock) Pantera (Glam rock -> Metal)

[@nicway3790]

All of the Emo Trinity changed over the years.

[@soda_gt.]

MCR managed to stay rock when they ended

[@googoogaga7175]

Nichole Way yeah. mcr is the only one that didn't become sell outs. I still like fobs and panic!s new stuff, but not as much (Also nice profile pic lmao gee is 40 now💜)

[@fabulousbaticorn9991]

Nichole Way mcr went from 'emo rock' to 'idea'

[@peytonstewart2831]

Panic! didnt sell out. They evolved their sound and continue to evolve their sound in new directions with each album depending on which direction Brendon wants to go creatively For example, the 50's influenced music theyre doing right now is in no way cliche nor was the 80's pop influenced TWTLTRTD. Its always been unique and original ideas. Theyve just drifted from the kind of emo sound of Fever. Doesnt make them sell outs just because they evolve and more people happen to listen

[@googoogaga7175]

Peyton Stewart yeah that's true. I still like the new music. doab seemed like he was trying to go really pop, but it wasn't super sudden or anything. And dont get me wrong, I still love all of these bands

[@DarcyDeee]

Jon, if you haven't checked them out, I'd suggest checking out the band "Biffy Clyro". Their first three albums are very alt rock and everything after that became slightly more "mainstream" however its still highly enjoyable. Just thought I'd suggest them based on the theme of the video as well as thinking you'll probably enjoy the work thoroughly. :)

[@wiltedpetals]

Spookster i agree, saw them live and they're great. Jon should really check them out

[@itsfiggy7183]

Spookster MON THE BIFF!

[@connturk6734]

Spookster I have commented this myself a few times hoping Jon would somehow see it, but never did. I love Biffy Clyro and I would agree with you on the evolve of sound but Puzzle , Blackened Sky, and Only Revolutions are my favourite albums from them

[@brandinotarantino8562]

It's actually pretty phenomenal how all-over-the-place Biffy has been in their career. Kind of went from grungy vibes to experimental rock to hardcore stuff, and kind of settled in an electronica/arena rock type of sound. Love the band's versatility! Still consider Vertigo of Bliss and Opposites to be my personal favorites.

[@joebaggins8850]

yes! !!! vertigo of bliss is the best album ever made!

[@bloo_110]

I wouldn't say LP changed their sound COMPLETELY (except for OML). Before that, I thought it was very much of an evolution. Even OML is an evolution of their sound, if you remove The Hunting Party from the equation. THP was called a prequel to Hybrid Theory, so really their sound changes from heavy rock (THP) to nu metal (Hybrid Theory + Meteora), to more generic and pop rock (MTM), to electronic (ATS), to then electronic rock (Living Things) to then pop (OML). Its easy for everyone to roast OML because of its timing. If it didn't release right after LPs heaviest album ever (and imo their best) and maybe after ATS or Living Things then it wouldn't have been so roasted imo (tbh, the album has grown on me a lot, especially after Chester's death)

[@patriciahenderson2453]

Chester said making every Linkin Park album felt like being in a new band. I can see there being quite an appeal in that. It is quite a dramatic shift, most noticeable when you open up Apple Music's "essentials" playlist and put it on shuffle. When I was getting to know them fully, it was quite a jarring experience. I remember Papercut and Heavy playing back to back, and I was like, "what the...??"

[@evanurena8868]

Gecko w/ a Bowtie: Of course they are.

[@someoneelse7971]

the only album of theirs they beat is One More Light tho

[@evanurena8868]

Someone Else: I agree, One More Light is a complete and utter joke of Linkin Park. Literally the worst album they have ever made. Even every other album after Meteora is better then One More Light. The lyrical concept is one of their best but the musical execution is the worst.

[@cliff6229]

Living Things is the third best. Minutes to Midnight has lots of shit songs (mm hmm Hands Held High), A Thousand Suns is too political and boring, Hunting Party is a failed attempt at trying to be heavy again and One More Light needs no explanation. Living Things is gold

[@brayanargandonaflorentino548]

[@racetucker56]

I’m surprised that Queens Of The Stone Age aren’t on here. Listening to their debut self titled album and their most recent album, “Villains”, shows how insanely far they’ve adapted since 1998. Not that they’re bad now, they’re still freaking fantastic.

I'm looking forward to listen to RHCP, their evolution looks interesting. Oh and Radiohead are total beasts. What a smooth evolution really. Another band who changed abruptly with amazing results is Blur. These guys went from shoegaze/madchester to britpop to raw indie rock/lofi to experimental/electronic to a more mature sounding alt-rock with global influences. I don't think many people recognize how ballsy some of those changes were. Blur were almost seen as a boy band at a certain point. As soon as the moody single Beetlebum and the self-titled came out, everyone said it would alienate their teenage fanbase and it was seen as a sort of commercial suicide. It was indeed a dramatic departure from their britpop roots, and they eventually went further with the following visceral album, 13. Ironically the self-titled was the album which spawned their biggest and most recognized hit worldwide, Song 2. Love them so much, each album provides a whole different experience

Agreed! M5 were good in their early days, but now they are...I hate to say it, THE definition of a sellout band. Sadly ☹

Just a little constructive criticism: you are a bit repetitive and so your videos appear long and boring in some parts, you could try to say things in a better and shorter way in order to keep the viewers entertained. In addition to this, try to edit more your video: this helps to make the video more clear, easy to watch and keep the viewer more entertained. I hope I helped you a bit because I'm interested in your content but your work could be done in a better way

Meh.... I will always love Maroon 5 TBH. They are my favorite ! Their music isn't the same as before.... But their music will always have a place in my heart.

Re: Maroon 5 - Cold: You have to at least admit it's not as bad as "Don't Wanna Know (know know know know know know know...)" (Yes, I did that on purpose!) But you're right about Maroon 5 de-evolution. It's like Maroon 5 has become code for "Adam Lavine's failed pop career" lately. Other bands that have changed over time include Coldplay and (while technically not a band) Owl City. The last one maybe not so much, but you can't say that A Head Full of Dreams sounds from the same vain as Parachutes! And I have a new SOS episode idea: 7 Albums that genuinely surprised me (Basically, it's the exact opposite of the one you did on albums that disappointed you. You can talk about 7 albums that you weren't expecting much from, but ended up winning you over upon release.)

Green day Punk rock -> pop punk green day is my favorite band and this change was for the better

R.E.M. made a pretty significant change between their 80s Radio Free Europe sound and later stuff like Everybody Hurts.
