Bands that you've changed your mind about

[SatCam]

bands who you thought/told your friends they sucked but now you like

like the police and oasis

or bands who you felt were good then you realized they weren't that great

like john mellancamp, bon jovi and journey

[jafter]

<p>When Van Halen came out I hated&nbsp; Jamies Crying.&nbsp; I thought is was crap so I never cared for Van Halen.&nbsp; Now I have most of there early stuff. </p>

[reeshy]

GnR...years ago ...when I first heard them, I thought they were nothing but a big hair band...now....I can listen and remember!!!!!!!!!!<br />

[Gvac]

<p>None.</p><p>I immediately know what I like and what I don't. &nbsp;</p><p>If it has to &quot;grow on you&quot; it's probably not any good. &nbsp;</p>

[Tazz]

<p>If I thought they sucked at first, they still suck.</p><p>&nbsp;But what about bands you used to like, but now think suck?</p><p>I used to love Tom Petty. Then I saw him in concert, and he bored the shit out of me. Now I can't even listen to him on the radio&nbsp; </p>

<p>I hated Neil Young until I read a Rolling Stone interview about thirty years ago where he said he hated his voice and his songs were depressing. My thoughts exactly, so I gave him another shot and grew to appreciate his stuff.&nbsp; I was never a big Fleetwood Mac fan until&nbsp; a college roommate played them for me.&nbsp;Now I&nbsp; like them.&nbsp;&nbsp; (I know, I am old)</p><p>Bob Seger used to be great until radio played him to death, now&nbsp; I can't stand him.</p><p>&nbsp;Oh, yeah, never had much use for&nbsp; John Mayer either, until&nbsp; he came on Ron and Fez. How can you not like a guy like that?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[burrben]

i actually liked the killers when they first came out. i thought &quot;somebody told me&quot; was a good song. but it's been downhill since then

[Yerdaddy]

Milli Vanilli. It was the end of innocense for me.

[johnniewalker]

Snow and Ugly Kid Joe.&nbsp; They just got too big and forgot who their fans were. <br />

[JimBeam]

<p>I hated Nirvana when they were at the height of their popularity.</p><p>I started liking them much more once Cobain was dead.</p><p>I used to like Green Day until they got political.</p><p>After that I realized what a lot of people had said about them all along and that's &quot; every song is virtually the same &quot;</p><p>So fuck'em</p><p>When I first started listening to country music in college back in the early 90's I liked Garth Brooks a lot.</p><p>Once he became huge and a cross-over kinda star he started to become lame and too cartoonish.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[MHasegawa]

eminem, most of his popular songs is still a bit annoying to me but the rest of the shit you dont hear on the radio is fuckin great.

[lleeder]

Tool. I love there stuff but I saw them live on Halloween a few years ago and it didn't do it for me. The show lacked energy and was geared for a more trippy almost dead head crowd. I guess I'm just more into the Opiate and Undertow stuff when the songs were faster and under 10 minutes.

[lleeder]

whoops guess I got this thread backwards

[Bob Impact]

<p>I share the Tool hypothesis, but just because i'm sick of hearing the same album over and over again.</p><p>&nbsp;Strapping Young Lad and Oeth were two that I couldn't stand at first listen and learned to love.&nbsp; To be fair to both of them I heard really strange songs from both of them.&nbsp; These two are literlly one and two in my Ipod right now.<br /> </p><p>&nbsp;And I've gotta disagree with Moe, I heard Mastadon, dug 'em and then realized that I could NEVER remember a single one of their songs ten minutes after I listened to them, turned me on 'em for good. </p>

[AppleBoy]

Def Leppard - 'On Through the Night', 'High n Dry' and 'Pyromania' were great.&nbsp; Then their junk dropped off and they grew vaginas.

[Team_Ramrod]

<p>Genesis and Phil Collins...solo...</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>God, I'm so fuckin pathetic!</p>

[WhistlePig]

Lynryd Skynryd and southern rock in general. I used to HATE this stuff in
high school, mostly because I associated it with the rednecks who wanted
to beat me up on a daily basis for being a "punk rocker." But as I got older I
grew to appreciate this type of music and how it has influenced a lot of
other bands. I guess in general I grew up and learned that even if I don't
like a particular type of music I can appreciate it.

<p>I can't think of any music that I've actively hated that I've changed my mind on.&nbsp; There's been stuff I've ignored and finally given a shot, but any act I've out and out hated.&nbsp; And there's plenty I have liked but ended up hating.</p>
