The much beloved Neutral Milk Hotel routinely recycled melodies, e.g. Two headed Boy I and II, but more so Baby for Pree and Where You'll Find Me Now - both from Avery Island. That was intentional, though, so maybe it doesn't count? (I see someone already pointed this out. You have note that it is obvious and intentional, tho.)

I think a great example of a band borrowing too heavily from itself is the way Weezer recycled the guitar track from Good Life into Troublemaker. It qualifies as a singularly sad indication of declining creativity, imho, as much as I still find Troublemaker irresistible.

King Crimson second album is basically a rip off of their first.

Remember this? John Fogerty was sued by his record company because he had plagiarized himself...

The songs are similar...

😐 you do realise that that is lampooning Coldplay imitators not Coldplay themselves, right?

ironically they themselves don't sound like Coldplay - good imitation of their videos though.

Pretty much the same song, but different lyrics.

When I was a kid almost every songs of Oasis sounded the same for me. I liked them but they were boring for me after a while. Now I'm grown up and my opinion didn't change.
(and it has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a Blur fan. When I listened to them as a child I had no idea what was going on between the two bands)

Well I don't like this band, however!

name a band/singer you really like and name two of their songs that sound most alike.
