Or another example was Metallica, their first 4 albums were as has been mentioned serveral times, classic albums. That all changed with the black album where they began to make a more accessible sound of their music. Actually if you want to go back further, they said in the 80's that they will never make a music video, because they didn't like the way mtv protrayed bands, guess what happened in 1989, they made a music video for one, so that was the start. With Load and Reload they went even further mainstream with their sound, now look at them, with their last album St. Anger, they are no longer metal but hard rock, they turned their backs on the fans that got them to the point of getting recognized all for the quick buck.
