To say Ok Computer was a shock is an understatement, The Bends was an ok indie pop album with a hit single

Oh, that would have to be Tales From Topographic Oceans to Relayer (I went for the obvious).

Yep stop the search, Doug found the winner in Dedalus. Wow...talk about taking the road less travelled. I made an indecipherable review of it a good while back and I still stand by my words.

Ulver's done that with just about every album.  Some of the transitions were somewhat gradual but a few of them were complete 180s (like, as in Black Metal to Acoustic Folk to Electronica to Post Rock).   It makes them interesting to follow, but it's a little creepy too.

What are the biggest transitions a band has made from one album to the next? Try and keep it so most of the members have stayed the same/there isn't a long gap or hiatus the band took (e.g. King Crimson's Red to Discipline). A couple of my favourites:

Genesis: From Genesis To Revelation - Trespass
Harmonium: s/t - Si On Avait...
The Moody Blues - The Magnificent Moodies - Days Of Future Passed
Mike Oldfield - Earth Moving - Amarok 

As always, thanks for any feedback Big smile
