Yeah Toby Keith was a stupid schtick post but Radiohead wins this category for me hands down. Their peak is amazing. Big chunks of their output are undeniably unlistenable.

There are so many artists that get worse with time. U2, Metallica, Muse, RHCP... Many times I've been waiting for the next album of a band, and it was just much much worse.

Pearl Jam is the obvious answer on this forum. I don't think Just Breathe is the low point, but there is absolutely no doubt that they are not creatively the same band as they were in the 90s. I don't really see why they shouldn't be, even with advanced age and more money.

Nas had like 3 good to great albums, then just couldn't seem to find the right producer.

His albums largely became dull and uninspired.

High: "Roots Bloody Roots", Soulfly's Dark Ages and Enslaved albums (though most other people will point you to Sepultura's Schizophrenia, Beneath the Remains, Arise, and Chaos A.D. - all widely acknowledged classics)

Low: That Soulfly song with Fred Durst
