What artists have released albums as good as their previous works after 15+ years hiatus?
>>60902982
>Swans thread
The avalanches desu
Alice in Chains
>>60902982
Mark Kozelek with "Benji" under the name Sun Kil Moon.
Swans
I can't really think of many others, it's a difficult thing to do.
>>60903062
I just realized you said hiatus, disregard my post, Mark has been releasing great stuff constantly since he was in his 20's, but recently he has made some really really great stuff that is just as good as, if not better than his earlier effort. And Swans have been very solid after their return.
The Pop Group
>>60902982
Blur
Over 15 years without Graham anyway
>>60903110
not nearly as good as Y
Shabazz Palaces, previously known as Digable Planets
>>60902982

>>60903062
sun kil moon is trash compared to red house painters
>>60903589
so much this
>>60903153
...what. They seem to have completely different people.
Failure & Faith No More
Spiritualized
If you disagree you're a deaf fucktard
This is my favorite album of the year.
Silver Bullets by The Chills is also really neat.
Mission of Burma's ONoffON too.

>googled it
>mfw it's true
never would have guessed they would have gone from jazzy alternative to muscular, strong sounding music
My Bloody Valentine
>>60904625
lmao
>>60905224
mbv is just as good as Isn't Anything you dumbshit
Scott Walker
Does Dinosaur Jr. count? There's a 15 year hiatus in between Barlow leaving and their three most recent albums, which I felt were all pretty good.
>>60902982
Mission Of Burma
Celtic Frost
Failure
The Pop Group.

RHP were fucking stellar
>>60903665
>after 15+ years hiatus

Maybe Glassjaw will pull it off
>>60905992
here senpai
metallica
15 years after ajfa they released the masterpiece that is st anger
>>60902982
Cynic.
Focus in 1993, then Traced In Air in 2008
I never much liked their mellower albums after Traced In Air, though
>>60903635
Butterfly is one of three members in Digable Planets, also one of two members (the rapper) in Shabazz Palaces
>>60906193
st anger and lulu aren't perfect, but i have more respect for metallica trying out new musical ideas than i do megadeth or slayer just rehashing ideas from the 80s.
Bjork. Self titled in 1977, Debut in 1993.
The Chronic > Compton > 2001
>>60906715
I suppose that's true, although in that case maybe OP should be corrected to "as good as, or much, much, much better than their predecessors..."
Olivia Tremor Control
>>60905999
This. Third is their best album.
Steven Wilson
Paradise Lost
>>60907188
Just no.
>>60902982
>mfw no one mentions Slum Village
>>60907396
Poor quality b8
>>60907454
it's not as good as loveless, but it's great
if it had been released by any other band people would be sucking their dicks
>>60907511
I'd be somewhat impressed if it were released by Oasis. It only has about 4 good songs though.
