Inspired from the thread about bands with no lineup change, lets talk about the opposite: bands with zero original members. Examples include Finntroll, whose longest running members were in the band since 1998, though the band formed in 1997; and Napalm Death, whose longest running member is bass player Shane Embury who appeared as early as From Enslavement to Obliteration. Anyone know any others? -------------

Judas Priest - The closest to original members were bassist Ian Hill and guitarist KK Downing (who left last year), but the band was already formed before either joined. Opeth - IIRC Mikael joined as bassist after the group had formed.

Off the top of my head... Sepultura? I believe only the bassist is left now, but he wasn't there from the start...so no original members. Holy crap I forgot Akerfeldt wasn't actually there from day one ------------- Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal! Listen to doom metal, worship Satan |

Stratovarious. I'm sure there's another I know and listen to, but their name escapes me right now. ------------- Earn Money Online (NOT a scam): https://premium.gg2u.org?referrer=adg211288" rel="nofollow - GG2U https://adamsfilmcorner.quora.com/" rel="nofollow - Adam's Film Corner on Quora |

The bassist of Sepultura is there since the beginning. He is the only original member. |

Blackfoot. I think...Deep Purple. Not sure on that one though. Lynyrd Skynyrd are down to 1.5 Annihiltor, Jethro Tull and Cradle Of Filth are all down to 1. -------------  My Blog: http://kingcrimsonprog.wordpress.com/ |

| I believe Mayhem doesn't have any original members, but not quite sure about that. |

The bass player Necorbutcher was one of the founding members. He's still in the band. -------------

Jon Lord is not in DP anymore, so Paice is the only one to be on all their albums.
