discovering a band late on in their career....
.... much nicer experience than liking a band from early beginnings, you know how it is, great first album, 2nd album ok but a bit samey, 3rd album big change in direction which you don't really like, 4th album, just buying out of loyalty really....

Work your way back from a great album you just discovered by a band you may have heard of but never bothered listening to is much nicer, no expectations, no let downs and if you don't like something it doesn't put a dampener on the album you do like.

Example for me were Wilco, I heard Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot when it came out and was blown away and then discovered all their albums before were great also yet all their releases since have disappointed- still a massive fan though!

This is great if they have say...5 or less albums. Any more and it's a bit of a slog to listen to a band's entire back catalog I think. But then I am quite lazy.

I just heard a song by "Nirvana"

Hoping to see them live when they're next touring. They sound alright!

Have heard them too - sound a bit like The Foo Fighters.

The drummer looks a lot like the singer from Foo Fighters. Are they brothers?

you lot need to go back one more album, before they turned into a pop band.
