Stevie Nicks
Audoslave
Bon Jovi. Apparently they’re not a one hit wonder.
I used to love The Black Keys, but all their latest albums just sound so samey
AC/DC and CCR come to mind. Doesn’t bother me though. It’s the audio equivalent to eating a bag of Doritos. The flavor doesn’t change, but every now and then there’s one with a little more powder on it.
Hard disagree about CCR.
and just like Doritos, every once in a while you gorge on a bunch of doritos until you get totally sick of them and swear you don’t like them any more. A month goes by and you start snacking on them again because you hopelessly like them.
I am both amazed and disappointed it’s taken this long for me to learn how to sing AC/DC. It was Marge all along.

every band that i don’t like
This is the answer.
Jack Johnson. If you hear one of his songs in public just say “oh, Banana Pancakes” and move on with your life. Not a soul on earth will be able to correct you
I feel like it kinda works for him. It’s very mellow acoustic folkish music you could just have going on in the background.
For sure, I wouldn’t say it’s unpleasant.
That’s most bands, isn’t it? That’s why we have favorites, because we like how they sound. I mean, I suppose there’s people who like a particular band because of their technical skill in general, but for most people isn’t it the particular sound they have that draws us in?
To some degree you are correct, however there is a massive difference between a band like AC/DC which had jokingly been said they have have the same album for 40 years, and say Metallica.
Metallica helped define what Thrash Metal is. But listening to Load/Reload vs Ride the Lightning is a huge difference in sound.
And you take it forward another 10 years from Reload the sound has changed all over again.
Very different from AC/DC but then again most bands/artists don’t have 50 year careers as the biggest name in their musical setting
I’m stll pissed off about Load, tbh
U2? Never listened to them besides sometimes on the radio. But seems kinda samey
Their radio singles are same sounding, but they have some very different sounding songs that don’t get played.
I was just listening to them for the first time in a long while last week. There’s a noticeably difference pre and post elevation album.
Alan Walker
The dude has just seen one tune go viral and decided “why not make ALL of my music exactly like this?”
AC/DC for sure. Every song has the same vibe. It’s a good vibe, but once you’ve heard one song, you’ve heard them all.
…is it going to be controversial if I also say The Beatles? Maybe not ALL of their music, but most.
The Beatles is like 4 bands wearing a trenchcoat, so I’m gonna have to disagree with you there. I wouldn’t even say any individual album is samey from at least sgt peppers on
I appreciate Angus Young’s self-awareness.
“I’m sick and tired of people saying that we put out 11 albums that sound exactly the same. In fact, we’ve put out 12 albums that sound exactly the same.”
haha strong "no one beats Vitas Gerulaitis 17 times in a row” vibes
Pre 1964 Beatles I will give you. After, say, Revolver? I don’t see how you could compare Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds to Tomorrow Never Knows to Martha My Dear to Back in the USSR to Sun King, etc etc etc
Often you can tell it’s the same band, but these are meaningfully different sonic experiences.
It is very controversial to say that of the Beatles. Once they stopped doing live shows they reinvented themselves.
AC/DC music is nothing more than 4 chords and a beat.
And you know, sometimes that’s all you need.
And we like it like that.
Say what you will about AC/DC, nobody else can convey the idea of sweaty testicles in musical form as effectively as they do.
The Beatles did evolve over time. Their early stuff all sounds the same and their late stuff all sounds the same, but there’s a big difference between their boy band phase and their stoner phase.
I guess I’m just associating them with their “boy band” phase then. Most of my Beatles listening was probably from the collection of hits on the 1 album back in the late 90s or early 2000s, whenever that came out.
Whole lotta Rosie is on my husband’s workout playlist and it is a jam. So good.
Oh yeah that’s definitely a top ac/dc song
Live off the If You Want Blood album is the best version! Hype
AC/DC especially has the same drum rythm for all songs.
I feel like there was at least some variety during the Bon Scott era but yeah everything from Back in Black on is the same.
Fyi Bon Scot suggested Brian Johnson replace him if he died early.
Check out Geordie if you want to see what he was doing before joining AC/DC… Is different.
Oh I like Brian Johnson but that is when everything started sounding the same. Good thing that I like that one thing they did :-)
Geordie sounds pretty good. I’ll have to check out more.
There’s also Rabbit with Dave Evans who was the singer on the first AC/DC single. They are, well, eh.
Nickelback
they went disco for a little bit
Multiple bands are just more Nickleback
Breaking Benjamin
Wesley Willis
I still get The Vultures Ate My Dead Ass Up stuck in my head.
Don’t change perfection
Most EDM in 2010’s. That’s the obvious answer.
sabaton. I still love it though
Sabaton is on my go-to playlist whenever I play Valheim.
