What band did you love but now hate. And hate but now love?

I was a Metallica fan up until "AND JUSTICE FOR ALL (1989)" when James thought he could carry a tune it destroyed it for me.
Not to mention Lars and the whole Napster thing..

I hated U2 in the 80's and 90's I thought their music was simple, repetitive, and not rocking enough.
Now I just love them.
Many of their songs send chills up my spine..
like One ,wild horses,stuck in a moment, the sweetest thing....They put out better music than I gave them credit for.

I think time morphs our taste..The band you love today may turn your stomach tomorrow..You just never know.

1. I hated Aerosmith in the 70's. Now I lurve them.

I can't think of any bands I've turned against. Maybe Paul McCartney.

4. I was different

I loved aerosmith until they put out "Dude looks like a lady"
after that i wrote them off..I think it was When Tyler started trying to Scat.
but i must confess..I just love The song "Jaded"..It speaks to me

2. Well, it isn't a band anymore, but I loved Jefferson Airplane, and

you know what happened to it. It was an abomination. I cringe, like hearing fingernails on a blackboard whenever I hear a Jefferson Starship song.

6. IF I listen to that song, then I don't need syrup of Ipecac to induce vomiting.

5. Loved Barenaked Ladies...can't stand them now.

For the other way around...The Grateful Dead, maybe. I wouldn't say I LOVE them, but I have a greater appreciation for their musicianship and folk roots.

8. I find that bands i just liked back when.....I love now

I liked Bob Dylan when i was younger but just "liked" him..I didn't fully understand his music and his poetry.
Now I just love the man..

7. I went through hate/love/indifference with Southern Culture on the Skids

The first time I saw them they were awful, and worse than that they played for twice their allotted time on a multiple bill gig leaving the headliner with only time to perform half a set.

Eventually they grew on me and Mary Huff joined and she was the perfect Southern belle even though she was from Jersey. I gleefully sweated through a decade of their shows and had great times.

The last time I saw them was a few years ago and they seemed like they were just going through the motions. I still like listening to them but I'm not sure I'll ever make an effort to go see them again.

9. I am oblivious to their sound

I will youtube them in a few.

10. Youtube doesn't really capture them

They really had to be appreciated live: Loud, sweaty, raunchy and with chicken bones flying
