Musical catharsis

Watching the film THE FOUNTAIN today got me thinking regarding it's soundtrack. It is by Clint Mansell. Once of indie pop rockers POP WILL EAT ITSELF.The deftness and maturity on the soundtrack is stunning and if you asked me back in 1989 whether Clint would be doing this-the answer would definitely be NO!

Any other artists that are making completely different music to what they were originally doing, and being good at it?

Anyone who hangs in long enough I guess. I was fairly shocked the first time I found out that Elton john of candle in the wind fame wrote and preformed Crocodile rock.
