Radiohead's discography has been this for me with almost every album. The most jarring changes were between The Bends, OK Computer, and Kid A: each time I hated their 'new sound' at first and then eventually they became one of those albums that I just default to when I can't decide what else I might want to listen to.
The closest analogue in movies, I suppose, are the Coen Brothers. I wish there was a word for the feeling of listening to/watching/reading something, disliking it, but knowing that you'll probably end up loving it.
- DyslexicAtheist 7y agohuge radiohead fan here. I also think they have undergone a massive transformation in style. as a fan it's challenging, but rewarding to follow them. As you described your struggle with their constant changing I'm currently struggling with their latest album. I'll probably end up listening to it every day in a year or 2. It kind of "grows on you", doesn't it? Like a pair of shoes that don't fit yet and after a time they are your favorite pair.
