Reading the 10 acts to see at Green Man it’s stated that most bands record 1 masterpiece if they’re lucky. The writer believes Teenage Fanclub recorded 2. Not sure about that myself but are there any bands or artists that can genuinely claim to have recorded 2 (or more) masterpieces?

Modest Mouse

Can we mention bands/artists who have recorded more than 2?
Yes. Ive already said dylan!
Why, I know of a band that’s recorded at least 7.

Also, Modest Mouse and Counting Crows each have three.
Soundgarden
Cocteau Twins
Rolo Tomassi
