RHCP. When I hear them on the radio now, I can't remember what I liked so much about them. I don't play the albums I have anymore, and I wouldn't buy the last two. ... a word of warning to bands who stop evolving, your fans might just get sick of you.

And although Dave talks a lot about taking new musical directions, I can't put a Foo Fighters album on around here without my whole family screaming at me to turn it off. They don't have a problem with the first two albums, but anything past that gets a rousing, "Nooooo!"

RHCP to me has always been a band that releases a song i like at first. then I quickly get tired of it and never hear it again. very short term.

rhcp is prob so popular on this thread because they're sitll so media friendly so you hear their songs on everything...commercials on tv, nonstop radio play, etc...sucks cuz i think they're incredible

for me, i've been so tired of nirvana for about three years now. i dont even think i like them anymore. i can appreciate what cobain was about to a certain extent. but after reading more and more about him i keep thinking more and more that there wasnt all that much good in him. he was so judgemental of people and that pisses me off. so i've just kinda given up. i cant really listen to many bands unless i feel like i could hang out with them and not hate them. pretty hard deal.

also: soundgarden, sister hazel, a little pj

Good music is good music period. I'm not really sure how you can get sick of good music. That's what makes it good, it's timeless.

You make a good point, but sometimes what you consider to be "good" can change with your own personal circumstances ... or just because you've exposed yourself to other kinds of music that fine tune your own musical preferences and send you off into another direction, making what you may have liked before sound trite.

Essentially you're right, though. If it's really good, changing trends won't diminish it.

Just because something is good doesnt mean that you cant get sick of it. Anything can be bad in high doses. Hell, even water can kill you if you drink too much.

i havent listened to a zeppelin album in a few years and dont ever really get the need to listen to them. also rage against the machine. probably every other artist i like i listen to fairly often.

Green Day. I loved them in the nineties but I'm sick of them now. They seem like nice guys but I can't stand their recent music.

Good one that I completely forgot about, I dont like their new music either but cant even stand to hear the old stuff anymore. I think I am kinda disgusted by them because of the shit music of now that they paved the way for.

For me:
I think the problem is that none of these bands has done anything noteworthy in a long time.

I think the problem is the radio stations don't look futher than that one "marketable" song and never/rarely play another song from the album.
