Would agree with all the above, Manic Street Preachers could fit that description too.

Why thank you.

The members of Secret Chiefs 3 are everyone from Mr. Bungle except Mike Patton. If you've never heard them, they're really worth a listen. Imagine if Bungle was an instrumental band with strong cinematic and middle eastern influences and you get a pretty good idea what they sound like. Here's a little sampling, though, like Bungle, they sound pretty different from song to song:

Doesn't matter if these bands are "critically acclaimed" or not. Even though I've listed a few on this list that are. All that matters is that they're consistant in there discography and manage to produce some great albums.

The Beatles
Electric Wizard
Kyuss
Led Zeppelin
Pink Floyd
Queens of the Stone Age
Radiohead
Rush
Screaming Trees
Tool

Janz, you listen to much Estradasphere? Imo, they're like an even better Secret Chiefs.

Really? I am not a huge R.E.M fan but they have written some damn good tunes and Monster was such a change of pace for a band that could have belted out the same old, same old.

Bang and Blame, I Don't Sleep I Dream are some of the best tracks they had done for years.

Oddly enough I don't think I have heard a full album since Monster. Maybe I am missing out but Monster was so out there (for them) that I never felt the need to return to them.

That's why I like Monster. It may not be their best album, but it had that raw rock feel to it that none of their previous albums had. I think that's what makes it stand out. My favourite track from Monster has to be "Strange Currencies". Takes me right back to my childhood.

I just checked them out. This is nice because Patton can be a bit overwhelming sometimes for me. I will be getting some soon. Thanks!

I just youtubed them. I am not familiar with either one of these bands yet, to have an opinion on who's better, but I just put them both on my list of bands to check out. Thanks guys!

I've heard of them but never actually gotten around to getting anything. Where's a good place to start?

Yeah I'd say Radiohead is one band that consistently delivers without repeating themselves.

Yes on Miles too. He had a knack for assembling great musicians and demanding their best. I can't say I love every album but he was willing to take risks and try new directions.
