Name your bands who you think we great up until they recorded Album X then went rapidly downhill.
I'll start
Despite getting off to a slightly dodgy start The Cure recorded three excellent albums
Seventeen Seconds
Faith
Pornography
Pornography being the ultimate **** Off album
After which Fat Bob decided to become the superstar he always wanted to be and The Cure produced an endless stream of drivel.

Korn,
Everything post 'Issues' (which I think is great, I know a lot of other korn fans don't) has been, err lets say less than good.

Queensryche. They have gone rapidly down hill since EMPIRE. Every release since then has gradually out-bettered itself for being woefully inadequate. If they were your beloved pet you would have put them down years ago and ended the misery.
I really just wish they would give up now as they are a mere shadow of their former great self

The Rolling Stones. What are/were they about? They may have been good at some point according to some but whey are they doing still going today? Apart from making money.

If I was asked this question in 2007 I would have definately agreed with Metallica, first 4 albums were excellent. I'm not a fan of the black album but I know a lot of people who are. Then Load, Reload and St Anger were definately the turkeys. But they've definately done a u turn with DM. In a way I'm glad they didn't give up the ghost and they're still one of the best live acts around.
