   DON'T sound like it. A couple example I can think of are 'Magick Brother' and 'Gazeuse!' by Gong. Yes I know the second one is Pierre Moelen's Gong, but still Gong. And then an obvious one is 'Invisible Touch' and 'Trespass' both by Genesis but if you listen to them back to back you'll swear it's not same artist. 

Can anyone else think of an example of two albums by the same artist that sound like it must be a completely different artist on the other one?

	Utopianisti's beautiful The Third Frontier and Brutopianisti--released less than an year apart! Bent Knee and the Ben Levin Group contain basically the same band members but have totally different goals and orientations! Actually, the more I think of it, there are many artists who need multiple formats in order to explore different expressions of themselves (Toby Driver, John McLaughlin, Pat Metheny, Herbie Hancock, John Reed, Anthony Arjen Lucassen, Roine Stolt, etc., etc.)

	From Genesis to Revelation and Calling All Stations by Genesis. Also, the first two Renaissance albums with Jane Relf sounded totally different to the later albums with Annie Haslam. One more: The Magnificent Moodies 1965 album didn't sound anything like the Moody Blues albums that followed it.

	Not prog, but Love's first album and "Forever Changes," fit the bill.

	There was a thread that asked the same question , but of consecutive albums . Of course Pop Genesis is not like Gabriel era Genesis. However what about Lamb Lies Down on Broadway and Trick Of The Tail? Those are very different in sound style and approach. Both are great albums and not 'pop'. Also ELP were very different when they got to Brain Salad Surgery compared to the debut album. Emerson and Palmer had expanded their instrumentation and Lake's voice had dropped. Another perhaps bigger change was then to Works Volume One . Emerson completely ditched the Moog rig and they used orchestration.

	This one is almost too easy: Bowie (Young Ame v Heroes) , KC (lizard v "anything else") , Fripp so many, and PF early to late. Some not mentioned would be: Pain of Salvation's BE v Road Salt One Opeth’s Morningrise v Damnation or Heritage And the most extreme I can think of Ulver’s Bergtatt v Messe I.X-VI.X
