Default Re: Songs that made you realize your favorite band was going downhill

I don't think it gets any worse than these:

Float On - Modest Mouse
Good Riddance - Green Day
Hash Pipe - Weezer
King Nothing (and a handful of others)- Metallica
Dammit - Blink 182 (maybe?)

it'd be pretty difficult to argue that any of these guys had any chance of returning to their previous unadulterated awesomeness after these songs. for one I think the black album was still rife with thoughtful, introspective lyrics and a newly refined production quality that could have continued into awesome albums.

fwiw I got into most of these bands after they'd already made the switch to the mainstream.
