Any bands where you love some of their albums but absolutely hate some of their records also. Not like the have one good one but like 3-5 yu LOVE and the like 3-5 YOU HATE/ Phish is that band for me. I absolutely LOVE: Junta, Hoist, Lawn Boy, Picture Of Nectar, Rift and Joy and I absolutely HATE: Undermind, Round Room, Fuego, Farmhouse, Billy Breathes, Big Boat

They're not bands, but Freddie Gibbs and Wyclef Jean come to mind. More often than not I avoid albums that I think I'm highly unlikely to enjoy, but my list would certainly be longer if I didn't.

EDIT: Never mind, missed the 3-5.

Muse and Incubus.

Two bands that I liked a lot when I was 14, but now I wouldn't touch with a 50 ft pole on most days. Some of their songs I still like though.

There are band that meet that criteria, but it seems only on one special condition: these are bands that sold out somewhere along the way, where they started off great and then turned sour, usually in the mid '80s. I can't think of any that intermingled the good and the bad, it was more like a switch from good to bad.

I'm thinking bands like:

Jefferson Starship
ZZ Top
Heart
Whitesnake

Mine was mainly a switch from loving the early phish to hating most of the later day output with one real good one thrown into the back half

Funny on Phish: Billy Breathes is my absolute favorite (I discovered them with this album) and also the other albums you hate are my favorites 😉 Of the ones you love Picture of Nectar is my favorite.

I can really only think of Paul McCartney and U2 is getting there.

Dig Paul McCartney's work with The Beatles, less interested as he went solo. Hate is probably a strong word.

U2 dies somewhere between 1999 and 2009 (for some it's 1985 or 1991) and I can't stand their material afterwards... but actually somehow get back into it like an abusive relationship... hehe.

So perhaps my response isn't I hate them, but somehow they real me into a bad relationship and I should hate them, but Stockholm Syndrome...

Can second Wyclef. I really dig his work with the Fugees and then his first solo album, and maybe a song or two after this, but then he just turned into garbage.

I think some say this about NAS too.

A lot of rappers who've been around long enough to misguidedly hop on contemporary trends (and then equally misguided attempts at "back to basics" records).
