I’m talking about artists who completely changed genre or otherwise became unrecognisable. Share some that you know of!
thrice went from like pop punk to whatever the fuck the alchemy index was to beggars. they’re not really changing it up much these days but they were all over the place for a bit
I wouldn’t even call their early albums pop punk. Closer to post hardcore (not nearly hardcore but aimed to that audience at the time.) But yea; Vheissue was a sign of what was to come but AI was totally unexpected at the time from what Thrice was and their newer albums aren’t even close to what they were. But fwiw the new stuff is still really good!
post hardcore is more accurate, sure
i enjoy the more recent stuff but havent been blown away by it since beggars. major/minor was good. hurricane is one of my favourite songs they’ve done tho tbeitbn felt kinda jjst okay to me. but yeah i realllllly loved them between identity crisis and beggars
