I don't get the Green Day responses. They sounded pretty much the same on Slappy and Kerplunk! And Dookie wouldn't have been out of place on Lookout Records, their label before going to the majors.

Green Day was the first band that came to mind for me. They were pretty much the same garage band on Dookie as they were on Lookout Records. Then their image changed...wearing makeup, dyed black hair, black leather, adding band members to the original three piece band, leaning towards the big arena sound, going political. It goes on. Don't they even have a Broadway show?
Man I loved all of those three chord love/teen angst songs from their early albums. I guess you can't keep writing those when you're 40.
