For sure man! Old GAF represent and that's amazing you're children are into it. I ought to try Hollis' solo record as a sleep aide...
Talk Talk. And for the better.
Whenever I hear "It's my life" on the radio I'm fondly reminded of how Laughing Stock and Garden of Eden absolutely destroyed the boundaries of what a band can do if they simply choose to shrug off preconceived expectations and do what they want to.

Alex Ebert's first project was "Ima Robot", which sounded like this:

He rebranded and followed up Ima Robot with "Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros", which sounds like this:

Couldn't be more different!
Three pages in and nobodies mentioned David Bowie? How is this even possible?
Def Leppard are known for as one of the standard 80s hard rock/ metal bands. But their early material was New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the genre that influenced bands like Metallica.
I still don't know if I outgrew Linkin Park or they outgrew me.Linkin Park the thread.
Their new stuff is nothing like their old stuff.
Came to say Pantera. Someone already said it but hey.
Man I love me some Pantera..
I remember Kid Rock started as a rap/rock singer kinda like Limp Bizkit and these days he's just full country.

Honestly they were pretty much the same. They just got over produced, but the sound was the same. Less raw then early stuff, but it wasn't a radical change.
Scott Walker (not the shitstain politician) went from The Walker Brothers, making 60s pop hits like "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Any More," to his music of the last 30 odd years, which is about a million miles away. Check out his recent record with Sunn O))) for an example.
I need to research this.
I only know the "it's a shame" and "life's what you make it" Talk Talk, but Always thought they had a lot to say. Plus the singer always looked like a nice funny guy.
I don't think Alice Cooper has been mentioned ?
His first 2 albums sound...very different from what you probably expect.
Like this, for example
Good job on reading the OP... e_e
You might be right.Phil ruined them
Cold War Kids, for the worse.
ISIS (Metal band) - started out as consistently heavy, noise metal with lots of droning riffs, sounds like Neurosis. By the time Panopticon is released they have a more trance-inducing post-rock sound and were an early adopter of the style of music that everyone associates with Deafheaven now.[/URL]
Incubus changed a lot.
On their first two albums (Fungus Amongus and S.C.I.E.N.CE) they had this trippy djembe fuelled half singing-half talking songs, then during Make Yourself and Morning View they go through a pure pop rock radio-friendly phase.
From there on they kept swinging between soft rock and hard rock I guess.
