I've been fortunate that no band I really like has ever really "sold out".
Or that's what I was about to say, then I remembered that Guano Apes got somewhat boring since they released Bel Air - pretty much a radio rock album. I don't hate them now, but aside from some catchy hooks, there's not much left there. Listening to a song like Pretty in Scarlet side by side with the new stuff is enough to make me a bit upset. All that musicality is just gone with the wind.
I would have mentioned No Doubt, but while I really do think they've become crap since Rocksteady, I have started disliking the old stuff too...
