RippingCorpse1986 03.29.19	Deep Purple: Psychedelic rock -> Hard rock/heavy metal. Some psychedelic elements can still be heard on some of their post-self-titled albums though, I think.

thecheatisnotdead 03.29.19	Receiving End of Sirens and A Lot Like Birds both went from one style of post-hardcore to a somewhat different style of post-hardcore. More seriously, Ceremony went from hardcore to post-punk.
wham49 03.29.19	Rush Hard rock-prog rock- synth rock- classic rock
Egarran 03.29.19	Amazed to see Opeth mentioned so late. Probably because their transition to grandpa rock has a lot of haters.
theBoneyKing 03.29.19	Lambchop (from chamber pop/alt-country to indietronic)
DoofDoof 03.29.19	Paradise Lost from Doom Metal to Electronic Pop/Rock
thecheatisnotdead 03.29.19	^And then back, kinda!
Egarran 03.29.19	PL and Alcest are wholesome examples of going back to your roots.
Deathconscious 03.29.19	like 1000 black metal bands: black metal to folk. no one ever sees it coming! ~experimentation~
TwigTW 03.29.19	Bowie: Folk->Glam Rock->Disco/Soul->Art Rock->Post-Punk->New Wave->Alternative, and then finally back to Art Rock again, and all pretty well done I'd say.

Trebor. 03.30.19	Green Day: slightly above average pop punk --> slightly above average alt rock --> bad pop punk
Artuma 03.30.19	another ulver-like transition is manes black metal to industrial rock or some weird blend of it
dbizzles 03.30.19	Uvler: always at least good-great Katatonia: never great Amorphis: huge wet fart forever Job For a Cowboy: not the meme ur looking 4 Pantera: buncha phonies

Pratman 03.30.19	I'll take a risk and suggest Opeth...

Meridiu5 04.06.19	Ulver was the first band I thought of weirdly ie. from garbage to synthpop Reeeeeeee
JohnnyoftheWell 04.06.19	Ulver, Anathema, Gathering, Bowie [2] I guess Swans went through their fair share of shifts Faith No More are a big shout The Flaming Lips went from noisey psych rock to symphonic pop and then into all kinds of weird territory pretty well (up to the Terror) Unwound basically changed genres for Leaves, which is a masterpiece Goldfrapp change genre from album to album, almost always successfully PJ Harvey has pulled off some pretty major shifts too
ArsMoriendi 04.06.19	PJ Harvey is like Beck or Bowie though, she rarely does the same thing twice in a row god I love artists like that
budgie 04.06.19	"Ulver was the first band I thought of weirdly ie. from garbage to synthpop" lol one of the nerds who only like assassination of julius caesar
J() Alexander 04.06.19	"Ulver was the first band I thought of weirdly ie. from garbage to synthpop" Based.
bloc 04.07.19	Quoted 3 times in a day...it's a good day
Egarran 04.07.19	"Ulver was the first band I thought of weirdly ie. from garbage to synthpop" Garbage is good because you can recycle it into energy. The new stuff is trash though.
