MB posters can be hypocritical at times

For example, people hate mumford and sons because the first cd sounds exactly the same as the second...

then people hate Kings of Leon because they changed their sound from the first two albums...

thats all!

the comment about M&S has been said before. I am just repeating.

I don't listen to KOL but I have to assume that people are upset that they changed because they began to suck as they changed. If a band starts off well and then changes to appeal to a certain demographic in order to make more money, they often piss off the people who originally liked them.

I think most people on this board don't care for m&s because they don't like their music, not because they sounded the same on both albums.

I can't speak for kings of Leon.

But all their songs sound like shite.

Kings of Leon used to be great then slowly got worse and worse. People miss the old Kings of Leon.

I don't hate KOL because they changed their sound. I hate them because they changed their sound to one that absolutely sucks. They took everything interesting about their music and filed it off to become the blandest band in the world. They didn't change for artistic reasons, they changed in one of the most naked cash grabs in recent memory.

That's fine. Enjoy your swimming pool. but I don't have to consider you an artist anymore. Especially when you took a gigantic dump on your old fans and told us we were stupid for buying their old records. Well, message heard.

I don't even consider them the same band anymore. They now are the musical accompaniment to the color beige.

This is ridiculous, I didnt like M&S from the start... although I dont hate them.

KoL had one good record and then they just fricking blew...

Wilco, for example, has changed their sound a couple of times and I still hold them in high regard..

Bands can get worse, i.e. The Black Keys
Band can always suck, i.e. Japandroids
Band can get better, i.e. Animal Collective

Changed their sound, their look, their production, their label, and pretty much abandoned the style of music they used to play not to mention their original fan base.

Why a band that blatantly sold out?

It was a huge cash grab in their part perpetuated by their record label.

From the pics you posted of them throughout the years... I would have changed my look as well.

The whole purpose of making it is to be recognized plus make tons of cash while you can.

Kings of Leon went from ballsy southern rockers with an attitude to metrosexual douches playing to 15 year old girls.

Meanwhile Mumford and sons play the same god damn faux-folk "I'm gonna strum the absolute frick out of this guitar" song over and over and over for three fricking albums.

Long story short...... If they didn't suck I wouldn't hate them but alas they do so as do I

just curious, but what other bands would fall in this category? Do you think its because of the record labels mainly?
