Daft Punk. I heard one or two songs, got sick of them after a few plays and quit loocking into them. Then I decided to check out Interstella 5555 (the anime movie in sync with their album Discovery) and was blown away by how awesome their music was.

Melee. I had heard them on a compilation album a few years back, and had totally forgotten about them until a little bit ago. Now i just adore 'em.

Actually, about a half hour ago I heard some of the Loose album by Nelly Furtado. I never even bothered before thinking it was too chicky for me, but she has some good beats.

Same thing with me. Though I am just starting to get into death with Nile and Deicide, not much good DM bands IMO.

All I use to listen too is metal, so I hated Radiohead the first time I heard it. (They're my favorite band now.) I also didn't like Led Zeppelin up until about a year ago.

In my opinion :P

Also, popular iwth Cure fans. A newcomer shouldn't always start listening to what the fans dictate is best.

Slipknot. I hated them for the longest time. I hated them without even listening to a song (mostly because of some of the fans I met), but now I'll admit they have some good songs I have listened to. Thanks Guitar Hero!

I thought Linkin Park was just some generic rock band like Limp Bizkit, and maybe they started out that way, but I dig Minutes to Midnight.

Jimmies Chicken Shack. I only liked one song by them and tried to listen to others but never finished listening to alot of em and the ones I did I didn't like. But some odd months later I gave another listen and loved it, bought their other CD's and loved them to. Wonder what my life would be like if I never had done that :)

Their music is awesome but I find the singer's voice slightly annoying. Maybe it takes some getting used to.

Never happened to me.

Mostly I think a band is good from their "First Hit" but the rest of the songs suck.
