Jump the shark - Music Edition - leucetios - 10-17-2005

When did the following bands (or any bands you can think of) jump the shark? For reference, jumping the shark refers to the point at which they peaked and everything after was crap.

Metallica - Black Album

Guns n Roses - Appetite For Destruction. If there should ever have been a one album wonder, these guys were it.


Bands I am not sure about:

Iron Maiden
Rage Against The Machine

RATM - Renegade (good album IMO, just not right to do an album full of covers)

Milli Vanilli - I am pretty sure they never Jumped the Shark. They broke up in their prime.

311 - Transistor (Last album that was truly EPCOK)
Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy (really don't like anything after this album)
A Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms (should have stuck to just one album)
Pink Floyd - the Wall (continuing on without Roger Waters is retarded, any album made after he left should have an asterisk)
Radiohead - OK Computer (they all suck really, but this one is good)
Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream (I hate billy corgan, this was his last good effort)
