Pre 1964 Beatles I will give you. After, say, Revolver? I don’t see how you could compare Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds to Tomorrow Never Knows to Martha My Dear to Back in the USSR to Sun King, etc etc etc
Often you can tell it’s the same band, but these are meaningfully different sonic experiences.
The Beatles did evolve over time. Their early stuff all sounds the same and their late stuff all sounds the same, but there’s a big difference between their boy band phase and their stoner phase.
I guess I’m just associating them with their “boy band” phase then. Most of my Beatles listening was probably from the collection of hits on the 1 album back in the late 90s or early 2000s, whenever that came out.
“I’m sick and tired of people saying that we put out 11 albums that sound exactly the same. In fact, we’ve put out 12 albums that sound exactly the same.”
AC/DC for sure. Every song has the same vibe. It’s a good vibe, but once you’ve heard one song, you’ve heard them all.
…is it going to be controversial if I also say The Beatles? Maybe not ALL of their music, but most.

AC/DC music is nothing more than 4 chords and a beat.
And you know, sometimes that’s all you need.
Whole lotta Rosie is on my husband’s workout playlist and it is a jam. So good.
Live off the If You Want Blood album is the best version! Hype
Say what you will about AC/DC, nobody else can convey the idea of sweaty testicles in musical form as effectively as they do.
I feel like there was at least some variety during the Bon Scott era but yeah everything from Back in Black on is the same.
It is very controversial to say that of the Beatles. Once they stopped doing live shows they reinvented themselves.
I appreciate Angus Young’s self-awareness.
haha strong "no one beats Vitas Gerulaitis 17 times in a row” vibes
AC/DC especially has the same drum rythm for all songs.
