At what point in their discography do you stop listening because the music just wasn't interesting or there anymore? Starting with an easy one: David Bowie for me ends with Let's Dance and nothing after that is interesting at all.
>>127091351 (OP)coldplay after viva la vida
Eminem ends with Relapse as far as I'm concerned.
There is always a chance that they pick up later, Bowie certainly did with his final album, or have a gem in the dross.
metallica after and justice for all
Paul McCartney probably around Tug of War era.
Stevie Wonder - Hotter Than July
>>127091351 (OP)>Ignoring Labyrinth, TND (The Next Day) and Blackstar
U2 with Pop after that they become boring momrock.
Taylor Swift - Red. Her songs get more and more delusional and egotistic and even more grossly overproduced and the melodies also get worse
Devo - Oh No It's Devo. Shout had some decent hooks but they lost all their edge after ONID.
>Neil Young Ragged Glory
>Van Morrison Enlightenment
>Bob Dylan Love and Theft
Elton John has 3 listenable albums in total after Blue Moves

prism being her best

bonnie mckee songwriting W
U2 after Achtung Baby either repeated themselves or attempted styles of music that don't fit them.
Sonic Youth after Daydream Nation. Not a total cut off but a lot less consistently interesting.
Zappa loses the plot somewhere in the mid 70s and it becomes a chore to dig through hours and hours of music for the gems.
>>127091570>Neil Young Ragged GloryHe has 27 albums after this no way have you heard them all to be able to judge.
PIL stopped being good with Flowers of Romance
Does anyone consider post-Capitol Frank Sinatra essential listening? Probably not.
I don't really care about Springsteen post-70s tbqh.

The Who after Who Are You
Aerosmith - Rocks
Band - Stage Fright
Bruce Cockburn - Humans
Jayhawks - Rainy Day Music
Rolling Stones - Tattoo You
Rush - Signals
Tull - Stormwatch (but haven’t really given the later ones a real chance)
Van Halen - 1984 (and that’s pushing it)
The Who - Who Are You
Lana Del Rey - every album after NFR. She's one of the only worthwhile artists I can name in the last 20 years and her first 6 albums are classics but Chemtrails, Blue Banisters and Ocean Blvd have been a total snooze for me. A big part of it is the lack of drums/beats. The songs are quality but they feel so drowsy without them. There's still a few keepers like White Dress and Peppers but I just can't get into the rest.
Smashing Pumpkins - every album after Machina. I've tried, I've really tried. But the the 90s stuff is so magical I give it a pass. And they're still amazing live. I liked the Zwan album from 2003, but didn't love it.
Paul McCartney - he lost me forever with Press to Play. Sure there were occasional good songs after that, but no albums I needed to own.
Bob Dylan - Bob lost me with Infidels
Of Montreal's last good album is Lousy With Sylvianbriar, but, Aureate Gloom is the absolute cut-off for when you should stop.
I mostly don't think Dylan after Nashville Skyline is worth your time or mine.
green day after warning, their last good album. american idiot had a few good tracks but overall was boring and everything after that is similarly skippable
>>127091351 (OP)Ween, cockaroach album. Don't ever listen to it or go past.
Taylor Swift should have ended with 1989, come on man.
Kanye Yeezus. Nobody needs anything after that one.
Pretty sure most people's cutoff for Peggy Lee is Is That All There Is.
It can be hard to tell sometimes whether the artist themselves lost it at a certain point or they didn't, the audience lost them because their sound wasn't what audiences were looking for anymore.
>>127091351 (OP)I don't think any Dylan after Shot of Love is necessary listening.
