Best of these are obviously those where new, often younger, members almost outnumber the classic/heyday line up

I dont understand why Metallica didnt just keep their 1996 look. They never looked better before or since
Maybe all the subtlety and late 90s maturity went with Newsted

It's like they showed up to state fairs and street feats in 2013'in suits, watching everyone in shorts and flip-fops, and said fuck it.

they had a grand total of two hits in the u.s., right?
maybe they had a later one that i'm not aware of.

Tears for Fears were always pretty dour, though it looks like Roland succumbed to the 80s "wearing too many belts at once" craze for a time

The REO photo is such a beautiful and pure expression of generations working together, Boomers dressed by a Gen X stylist who doesn't realize it's not 2004, back when the stylist last had a good paying gig overseeing a bunch of Millennial acts. How many have worn those chains and skull rings!?
