Not just their sound, but their image as well. They went from being looked at as misogynist meatheads to spokespeople for feminism and other liberal causes. If back in the 80s you told me that the guy from the group that made the song "Girls" would marry Kathleen Hanna, a riot girl feminist, I would have laughed.
