I would agree with the Mission of Burma mention. The first time I heard them was when I picked up a copy of Signals, Calls, and Marches from a used bin for like $2, and I didn't really like it all. I gave it a few more chances and its complete brilliance finally dawned on me. Now MOB are one of my absolute favorite bands.

Other bands that were kinda like that (for me at least) were... Xiu Xiu, and Sonic Youth to an extent. It's cool when you can immediately love a band, but it's maybe a little more rewarding when you have to work for it and you're constantly finding new things in the music that catch your ear and make you enjoy it even more. SY are still like that for me, sometimes I'll listen to one of their albums and catch some new thing I've never heard before and like it even more because of that.
