I would argue that, as Poosie is about to discover, Weezer is a good one, because those later records are actually quite strong if you've never heard the others, and rather than screaming NOTHING AFTER PINKERTON, you get to hear the best bits of those later albums - and there *are* some good moments - without writing them off completely.

What other bands are best listened to backwards to avoid elitism and first-few-albums-only snobbery?
