Bands who made the same album over and over again

And that's OK with me. Don't fix what ain't broke.
Van Halen didn't stray much until they switched to Sammy.

 

Well not a band per say but "Enya" has released "Watermark" under a different title for every album she has released her whole career. (Not that there's anything wrong with that)

 

Pavement?

 

Mark knopfler solo

 

No way. They made 20 of the same fantastic album.

 

All of their albums are unimpeachable.

 

No, I can think of another one.

 

From 4-track lofi noise, to classic rock, thru White Album sprawl, to mature songsmiths, finishing with albeit solo final LP.

 

Pretty sure trophy award is redundant.

Wilco? Not real departures or experiments apart from A Ghost is Born [/QUOTE]

I would say Wilco have actually covered a fair amount of ground over the years.

 

Public Image

 

Dave Clarke Five?

 

No.

 

LOL...They made 20 of the same______album.

 

AC/DC as mentioned, and there's a great story where a journalist says to Angus Young: (paraphrasing) "Angus, AC/DC has been accused of making 11 albums that all sound the same. How do you respond to those critics?" Angus: "Well it's simply not true. We've made 12 albums that all sound the same."

 

Steely Dan, but who's complaining?

Yeah, I was mightily confused by that one. While there is a certain kind of Wilco song that tends to appear across the albums and years, I don't think that A.M sounded much like Being There, which didn't sound much like Summerteeth; none of which sounded anything like Yankee Hotel or Ghost is Born (though those two did have much in common, IMO).

 

Debut's varied.

 

Beatles up to Help! ?

 

Beach Boys early albums ?

 

Chuck Berry.
Slight change with Ding A Ling.

 

The Clash.

 

Bubblegum, hairband.
Bon Jovi.

 

Slayer

 

The Killers
