Bands you 'once' hated...

guess i have to put the white stripes in that line up, new album. new maturity?? soulful tunes.

The White Stripes.
The stuff that played on the radio was ok.
Last week a friend lent me all the CDs, Now I cant get enough.

pink floyd. i couldn't stand them untill i studied 'dark side of the moon' for my music a level and it really grew on me.

the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. back when Maps was EVERYWHERE i thought they were annoying as hell and then i realized the singer was hot, the vocals were nice, and the music itself was very interesting. so i downloaded the cd and its one of the best albums i have. one of the only ones to be fantastic through and through.

ummmm....i used to love hip hop, then hated it for a few years (i was in high school and i was goth, it just wasn't feasible) but now i ADORE hip hop again, partly to the credit of my boyfriend who listens to it more than any other genre and has gotten me into a lot of really great underground acts. not to mention the fact that i had nowhere else to go musically when most of the rock community decided collective whining was the best move everyone could make.

Still not fond of the 'Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs...' but I can be in a room with them on without trying to hurt something.

I used to hate Coldplay - thought their music was very samey and drol, but now I've kind of 'got' whatever it is that people who like them get. Very good for chilling after a hard day's work, plus the video to 'Speed of Sound' is awesome.

Nightwish. I saw them at their UK debut gig in 2003 (at Bloodstock 03) and almost fell asleep, then Once came out and for some reason (proboally the Therion worshiper in me) I just got hooked on them. Oceanborn is till the best album tho'

Same here... it's like, I hate emo, but how many emo bands do I have to like before I officially like it?

Green Day
Weezer
Rise Against
Blink 182
Rancid
My Chemical Romance
Something Corporate

And it's not a band, but Rockstar INXS totally grew on me. I'm supposed to hate those shows.

Coldplay

I get to see them live next weekend!!!!!!!!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

the white stripes
steely dan

rush.

Journey

I think it was when "Wheel in the Sky" was used at the end of one of the Sopranos episodes that really drove it home for me.........
