Default Bands that only had ONE good album in them?

As the title really. There are a few bands/artists that make one cracking album after another endlessly. Some have two good LPs then they're done. What about bands that only had ONE really good album and then went ****? How about:
  • The Killers
  • The Darkness
  • Keane
  • Hot Chip
  • Guillemots
  • Razorlight
  • Stone Roses
  • etc
I shan't delve too far back, but they're a few I can think of.

The Verve- Urban Hymns was one of the best Albums ever, but the rest just dont do it for me at all.

keane- As mentioned before, they've fell into the commercial trap.

Oasis- One superb Album with another close behind and then just pure Sh*te flowing out ever since.

Two completely different bands:

Linkin Park (every other album sounds the damn same!)

The Durrs album entitled simply Durr!! was good.

I really liked the title track 'Umm'
