I think Wu-Tang Clan had the biggest falling off of any group

4/12/2006 11:14:21 PM

btw, the more things change was awesome too









those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head

4/12/2006 11:40:52 PM

damn, havent heard about adamantium in a long ass time.

4/12/2006 11:43:58 PM

Cry Of Love
Mother Love Bone/Temple Of the Dog (these two are a different situation, though)

[Edited on April 12, 2006 at 11:54 PM. Reason : and The Lost Trailers...but it hasn't been THAT long for them-maybe they'll finally really break out]

Third Eye Blind

4/12/2006 11:55:06 PM

^beat me to it

4/13/2006 12:08:24 AM

and i've heard of third eye blind

but i dont know any of that metal stuff you guys are talking about

-ZiP!-

The Baha Men

4/13/2006 12:14:20 AM

youve never heard of Helmet? god damn. you must have lived in a closet.

4/13/2006 12:15:18 AM

yeah, Helmet was pretty well known

and I figured most people had at least HEARD of Mother Love Bone and Temple of the Dog

and Cry Of Love was from Raleigh (i think their guitar player ended up being a member of the Black Crowes for at least a few years)

4/13/2006 2:00:49 AM

4/13/2006 2:10:01 AM

4/13/2006 2:16:27 AM

well, AFD was a mind-bogglingly awesome record, but GNR put out tons of great material after that

"suicide machines"

definitely! their second one was ok. but man nothing was ever like that first one

4/13/2006 2:57:04 AM

^ my thoughts exactly

so glad i saw them in concert before they even got around to the second album

v damn you, i was about to say them

this says so much about your taste, because that album was 1000x better than anything beyond it. seriously, take a listen.

4/13/2006 4:01:23 AM

These bands didn't necessarily fall off completely, but their first albums are their best IMO:

Gang of Four
AIR
Liz Phair
B-52s
Elastica
MC5 (I think "Back in the USA" should count because "MC5" is a live album, but meh...it's all downhill after that)
Sex Pistols (BWAHAHAHA)
Starlight Mints

"Liz Phair"

I'll second that. Especially considering her most recent two albums. Holy hell, those were awful.

4/13/2006 7:55:11 AM

And after their first album this band made me ashamed for ever liking them to begin with:


And who could forget these guys:

4/13/2006 8:23:55 AM

Although I'll have to say his two records following this one were pretty damn good in my eyes.

And I'll still buy his CD's when he's 90 years old and rapping about knocking a dude's dentures out.

4/13/2006 8:33:58 AM

I saw suicide machines with fugazi back in the day. now THAT was a fun show.

and I second helmet. that was a great album. Betty was less than stellar. and I also second third eye blind. I usually hate that kind of radio rock, but that was a pretty killer album.

I'll add the stone roses to the list even though their second album is pretty decent. NOTHING compares to that first album though.

4/13/2006 9:03:20 AM

Blind Melon

4/13/2006 9:28:52 AM

Bush

[Edited on April 13, 2006 at 9:31 AM. Reason : at least I enjoyed 16stone...the rest were meh]

4/13/2006 9:30:58 AM

i dont agree with helmet.

i love betty.

i definately agree with the suicide machines.

betty was a good album, but couldnt live up to meantime

4/13/2006 11:01:23 AM

Liars

4/13/2006 11:20:25 AM

Blind Melon? Fuck no...

I say Weezer Blue Album. Granted they have made alot since, but that album was the best

4/13/2006 11:50:35 AM

^dude, pinkerton was just as good

4/13/2006 11:54:56 AM

blind faith

4/13/2006 11:56:05 AM

ha, i knew id see pearl jam in here

my pick: static-x

4/13/2006 12:03:27 PM

wow, Pearl Jam?

I'd say their first 3 are all classics, and Yield is fucking good, too.

and Weezer? Have you not heard Pinkerton?

Get out of this thread.

4/13/2006 12:54:10 PM

whoever said weezer needs to gtfo

"Third Eye Blind"

I guess I can agree, although I have both their 2nd and 3rd albums and love them as well.

I agree with Bush - 16 Stone

4/13/2006 1:21:02 PM

It wasn't an amazing album but I really enjoyed it.



————————————————————————
The Stone Roses had an AMAZING debut album

but "Second Coming" wasn't so hott.

ya brownies and lemonade was pretty good, same kind of thrash metal that was popular at the time with helmet/primus/orange 9mm so forth, then they sold out bad and played gay shit. i still have this album

and i agree with elastica, that first album was kickass

also

the breeders
spin doctors

4/13/2006 4:45:54 PM

I considered putting the Breeders, since "Pod" is by far the best, but I don't think the others are bad albums. Meh.

4/13/2006 5:03:25 PM

how in the world is the Use Your Illusion series "falling off"?

4/13/2006 8:23:09 PM

most bands "fall off" after a great debut album just because its hard to top that

but some dont fall off nearly as bad as others
